Dear Virtual Observatory participant
I emailed you a few weeks ago to invite you to submit a paper for a
one-day session on "Astronomical Data and the Virtual Observatory" at
the CODATA 2008 conference in Kiev, Ukraine, 5-8 October 2008. That
session is now firming up, and this is the final call for papers.
The topics for the astronomy session include (but not limited to):
* Role and operation of data centres and data services in the future
* The Virtual Observatory and its application commercial applications
(Google Sky, WHT)
* Interoperability
* Managing Astronomical Data in the Petabyte era
* Development of open access, data commons, information commons and open
culture
* Preserving and digitizing legacy data
* Crossing the digital divide: Accessing scientific & technical data in
developing countries;
* External threats to freedom of access;
Details of the session are on
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/people/rnorris/CODATA2008.htm
The deadline for submitting a title and short abstract (see web page for
details of how to do so) is 31 March.
My apologies if you receive this email more than once.
With best wishes
