CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Goals
The goal of this symposium-style workshop is to produce a detailed use
case literature covering the technical aspects of DDI3 implementation.
Some selected exploratory topics like interoperability with other
domains and technologies will also be examined.
Description of the Workshop
Implementations and planned implementations will be presented by a
number of attendees and discussed by other presenters and invited
experts. This workshop provides an opportunity to share experiences with
other advanced implementers of DDI3 and experts in the DDI3 technical
specification, obtain a real time peer review and create the beginnings
of a strong use case literature for DDI3 implementations. The hosts and
participants in the workshop are expected to look critically at the use
cases presented and provide any input that is appropriate.
Expected Results
Use cases discussed at the workshop will be written up and published in
the new DDI Alliance On-line Working Paper Series.
Venue
The workshop will take place at the Leibniz Center for Informatics,
Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern, Germany. The non-profit centre is a member of
the Leibniz Association and is funded jointly by the German federal

rooms and cafeteria while the day, and leisure rooms like wine bar and
billiard room while the evening promote intense discussion and
