>“Subject-centric Computing” 〓 the motto of TMRA 2008 
>====================================================
>
>As Peter Brown emphasised in his closing keynote in 2007, traditional
>information organization is focused on documents, folders, and files,
>which are all 18th century terms. Topic Maps, on the other hand, are
>subject-centric, in the sense that they organize information by what it
>is about. Users, however, typically think and act in a subject-centric
>way. They don't look for certain document or folder, but for information
>about a particular subject that they are interested in. Shifting the
>information architecture to a subject-centric perspective, means
>changing the way software and interfaces are designed. Subject-centric
>computing is based on the appropriate handling of subject identity,
>which is the mechanism for deciding whether or not two different objects
>represent the same subject. Identity-aware subject-centric computing
>empowers a new level of interactivity between systems at global scale.
>The goal of TMRA 2008 is nothing less than the break-through of
>subject-centric computing. The latest version of the call for
>contributions is available at [1]. The deadline for all submissions is
>30 May 2008.
