Documents are one of the
centerpieces of globally interconnected
systems that store information drawn from many
media and deliver that information as required
by users. A document may be stored in
final presentation form or may be generated
on-the-fly, undergoing substantial
transformations in the process. Documents may
include extensive hyperlinks, thereby
permitting virtual documents, and also making
available structured collections of
information on which to anchor automated
reasoning, such as promoted through the
Semantic Web. Furthermore, document
technologies like XML are having a profound
impact on data modeling, in part because of
the way these technologies bridge and
integrate a variety of paradigms.
The
ACM
Symposium on Document Engineering
is an international academic conference
devoted to the dissemination of research on
models, tools and processes
that improve our ability to create, manage and
maintain documents. DocEng 2005, the
fifth annual meeting, seeks high-quality,
original papers and panels that address the
theory, design, development, and evaluation of
computer systems that support the creation,
analysis, distribution and, interaction with
documents in any medium. The Symposium will
be held at Hewlett-Packards Bristol (UK)
Research Centre from November 2-4, 2005.
Topics and technologies
relevant to the symposium include (but are not
limited to):
Document
standards, models, representation languages
Document authoring tools and systems
Document presentation (typography, formatting,
layout)
