ANNOUNCEMENT: The program for the
International Symposium on
Quality Assurance and Quality Control in XML
is available at: http://www.balisage.net/QA-QC/index.html


The International Symposium on Quality Assurance and Quality Control in XML
will be held on Monday August 6, 2012 at the Hotel Europa, Montrial, Canada,
the day before Balisage: The Markup Conference begins in the same location.

This one-day discussion of issues relating to Quality Control and Quality
Assurance in the XML environment will begin with an introductory overview of
quality-control issues in complex XML workflows by Dale Waldt of LexisNexis,
followed by a discussion of quality control of schemas and vocabulary
definitions from Eric van der Vlist of Dyomedea. Case studies reporting on
quality assurance techniques used by the U.S. National Library of Medicine's
PubMed Central, Portico, Scholars Portal, and the American Chemical Society
make up the central part of the day. Steve DeRose of OpenAmplify will discuss
ways in which text analytics tools can change the boundaries of the
validatable, discussing both existing technology and open challenges. The
final part of the day is devoted to an open-mike discussion among symposium
participants and to a concluding summary and round-up of the day by Mary
McRae.
