Last Call: Ink Markup Language (InkML)
27 May 2010
| Archive
The Multimodal Interaction Working Group has published a Last Call Working Draft of Ink Markup Language (InkML). The Ink Markup Language serves as the data format for representing ink entered with an electronic pen or stylus. The markup allows for the input and processing of handwriting, gestures, sketches, music and other notational languages in applications. It provides a common format for the exchange of ink data between components such as handwriting and gesture recognizers, signature verifiers, and other ink-aware modules. Comments are welcome through 17 June. Learn more about the Multimodal Interaction Activity.

Augmented Reality on the Web
Barcelona, Spain
Augmented reality (AR) is a long standing topic in its own right but it has not been developed on the Web platform. As mobile devices become more powerful and feature-rich, the workshop will explore the possible convergence of AR and the Web. The objective of this Workshop is to provide a single forum for researchers and technologists to discuss the state of the art for AR on the Web, particularly the mobile platform, and what role standardization should play for Open Augmented Reality.

W3C Workshop on Conversational Applications
Somerset, NJ, USA
Openstream
The goal of the workshop is to understand the limitations of the current W3C language model in order to develop a more comprehensive model. We plan to collect and analyze use cases and prioritize requirements that ultimately will be used to identify improvements to the W3C language model. Just as W3C developed SSML 1.1 to broaden the languages for which SSML is useful, this effort will result in improved support for language capabilities that are unsupported today.

RDF Next Steps
Palo Alto, CA
Hosted by the National Center for Biomedical Ontology (NCBO), at Stanford University
The goal of the workshop is to gather feedback from the Web community on whether and, if yes, in which direction RDF should evolve. One of the main issues the Workshop should help deciding is whether it is timely for W3C to start a new RDF Working Group to define and standardize a next version of RDF.

W3C Workshop on Privacy for Advanced Web APIs
London, England
Hosted by Vodafone
As the Web advances toward becoming an application development platform that addresses needs previously met by native applications, work proceeds on APIs to access information that was previously not available to Web developers. The broad availability of possibly sensitive data collected through location sensors and other facilities in a Web browser is just one example of the broad new privacy challenges that the Web faces today.
Earlier approaches to address privacy issues for the Web, especially through policy languages, have not seen broad implementation in current-generation Web browsers.
This workshop serves to investigate strategies toward better privacy protection on the Web that are effective and lead to benefits in the near term.
