I’m honored to be invited to this year’s Workshop on Advances in Knowledge Engineering, Reasoning, and Sensemaking (WAKERS) at the Stellenbosch Institute for Advanced Study, South Africa.
The fourth edition of WAKERS will have the theme “Digital Engineering and Knowledge Representation“. With a move to more digital engineering for early validation, exploration, etc., digital artefacts such as models, data, and knowledge representations beyond those (e.g., knowledge graphs) are increasingly prominent and relevant for engineering across disciplines; another interesting development of course is that in Large Language Models (such as OpenAI’s), which may help to provide insight into the plethora of data and information available in such digital engineering contexts.
The workshop brings together an international and diverse group of researchers, from computer science/software engineering, knowledge representation and reasoning, but also from other engineering disciplines.
