The second PSMP workshop is a continuation of
the first PSMP1
workshop that took place
in Las Vegas within the 2003
International Multiconference
in Computer Science & Engineering.
The PSMP2 workshop will focus on knowledge presentation, sharing, mining
and
protection in cyber communities. Nodes which include servers, users, or most
generally,
any agents make up these interconnected communities. Communication between
these
nodes involves coordinating languages and protocols. The goal of a community
is to
build knowledge, provide and protect this knowledge. The architecture of
communication
between nodes and enclaves is specific for a given application. In the PSMP 2
Workshop, we would like to pay a particular attention to reasoning in the
communication
and dialog processes. The power of human reasoning is based on generalization
as the
most powerful operation. Artificial Intelligence systems can be improved in
their
generalization capabilities. Contributions regarding this topic are especially
solicited as
well as those dealing with integrating these approaches into applications.
EASEL
language applications that directly implement reasoning using property-based
types are
particularly welcome.

Discussion
A few people show up. Here are some
pictures
We had a pretty healthy disagreement on the following and other topics:)
Is the knowledge acquisition the most important topic?
Is the communication in networks the most important topic?
Semantics for networks (Internet) should be machine or human readable?
Protocols vs Natural Language like Dialogs in the network environment.
Do we need semantics for dialogs?
Do we need simple semantics or more complicated Transparent Intentional
logic and semantics.
Are Property Based Types(PBT) of EASEL different from flexible classes?
Do conceptual lattices provide needed logic for PBT?
How much of grammar is needed for dialogs?
What ontology is needed for information retrieval?
Do we need flexible classes (PBT)?
How much reasoning is needed for IR?
Complexity of EASEL vs JAVA for modeling from the user point of view.
What should be the topics for the PSMP3, Las Vegas, June 23-26,
2004
Use of EASEL as property-based language,
any application that demonstrates benefits or
limitations when EASEL is used as PB language
Theoretical foundation of generalization
Property-based types & non-extensional logic
Language and contextual semantics
Unbounded systems, Emergent algorithms
Wordnet, Semantic Web approaches
Tutorial and dialog systems in cyber communities
Inference in dialog and language acquisition
systems, current status of dialog
systems and their limitations
Abstract models of the above topics
