[Corpora-List] Call for papers: Workshop on Service Oriented Architectures for the Humanities

[Thomas Zastrow]

Call for Papers

Service‐oriented Architectures (SOAs) for the Humanities: Solutions and 
Impacts

Joint CLARIN-D/DARIAH Workshop at Digital Humanities Conference 2012


Motivation

Large research infrastructure projects in the Humanities and Social 
Sciences such as Bamboo, CLARIN, DARIAH, eAqua, Metanet and Panacea 
increasingly offer their resources and tools as web applications or web 
services via the internet. Such web‐based access has a number of crucial 
advantages over traditional means of service provision via downloadable 
resources or desktop applications. Since web applications can be invoked 
from any browser, downloading, installation, and configuration of 
individual tools on the user's local computer is avoided.
The paradigm of service‐oriented architectures (SOA) is often used as a 
possible architecture for bundling web applications and web services. 
While the use of web services and SOAs is quickly gaining in popularity, 
there are still a number of open technology and research questions which 
await more principal answers. The purpose of this joint CLARIN/DARIAH 
workshop is to provide a forum to address these issues.

We especially encourage submissions on one or more of the following 
topics: integration of multimodal resources, standardization of 
workflows and data formats, interactivity and collaborative research in 
a SOA, impacts of emerging web technologies on future SOAs, the pros and 
cons of web-based versus desktop applications.


Submission Details

Submitted abstracts of papers for oral or demo presentations should 
consist of 1500-2000 words. Abstracts will be submitted electronically 
using the conference tool ConfTool. Further detail will be given in the 
second call for paper.

The accepted papers will be published as electronically available 
workshop proceedings.
