Program at K-CAP 2011. Workshops and Tutorials will be held on Saturday,

K-CAP workshops provide an informal setting where the participants have
the opportunity to discuss specific technical topics in an atmosphere
that fosters the
active exchange of ideas. Our aim for the workshop program is to promote
and collect multidisciplinary research directions that contribute to
knowledge capture
from a variety of sources. Members from all research areas related to
knowledge capture are invited to submit workshop proposals. We
particularly welcome

general discussion.
