Information processing and knowledge management applications in cultural heritage and conservation science

Information processing and knowledge management applications in cultural heritage and conservation science
International Workshop Supported by
(05ΑΚΜΩΝ83 and INCO-CT-2005-015338)
13th of June 2008, «ORMYLIA» Foundation, Chalkidiki

The conservation science is a scientific field involving contributions from many and different scientific disciplines. Advanced technologies are being developed for the analytical investigation of artworks contributing multivariate data for the documentation or completion of historical and archaeological data.
State of the art data and information processing and management systems are solicited to optimally merge and cross-evaluate the information that may be potentially revealed from the acquired and stored pertinent data after the combination of methods and techniques from the different scientific fields (i.e. multispectral images and spectra, multivariate data produced from the combination of variable physicochemical spectroscopic techniques, textual archives, multimedia content and other).
Research work is performed within this field combining optimal data acquisition, processing and management, associated with the development of novel – integrating techniques and methods targeting to a multidisciplinary approach and providing integrated solutions.
The merit and the added value of the application and further development of the signal/image and in general of the information processing techniques applied to the analytical, data in the field of conservation is not sufficiently exploited and should be intensively pushed forward. This is a mission that engineers and conservation scientists should jointly undertake. The assimilation of efforts of both side techniques is a prerequisite for a concrete collaboration to be setup.
Within this context we would appreciate to receive any scientific contributions on the following indicative topics:

• Signal and image processing supporting novel non destructive testing techniques applied in art objects and monuments.
• Knowledge management of cultural heritage assets including semantics. Applications based on the CIDOC CRM are encouraged to be presented.
• Information processing and analytical data fusion acquired from artworks.
• Alternatively, contributions could be focused in presenting recent innovative and applied research developments combining any of the aforementioned topics.
