First ESAO Webinar
First ESAO Webinar
November 9th, 11:00-12:00 EST, 17:00-18:00 CET
DESCRIPTION
———–
The IAOA has created the Educational Series on Applied Ontology (ESAO), a new educational effort directed towards topics of Applied Ontology, primarily established basics and foundations.
The series is inspired by the Interdisciplinary Schools on Applied Ontology (ISAO) (whose next edition will be in 2023). ESAO is complementary in format and its overall approach. The goal is to provide a combination of archive educational material (e.g. short video lectures) and a series of webinars for presenting and discussing that material.
The ESAO Series is open for all and welcomes students, researchers and practitioners alike. The launch event for this new series was held at the second Bolzano Summer of Knowledge (BoSK 2021), with seven webinar sessions according to the new format on a single day.
–> The first of the regular webinar sessions will be held on
November 9th, 11:00-12:00 EST, 17:00-18:00 CET, online.
No registration needed. The Zoom link for participating is:

PROGRAM
——-
* 11:00-11:30 EST, 17:00-17:30 CET
Adrien Barton, Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse (IRIT) – CNRS, France
“Ontological realism: A philosophical overview”
Abstract:
Some applied ontologies explicitly adhere to a position named “ontological realism”. In this presentation, I will locate “ontological realism” within the landscape of the various forms of realism that have been proposed in metaphysics and philosophy of science, among which Platonic realism, Aristotelian realism, scientific realism, entity realism and structural realism.
* 11:30-12:00 EST, 17:30-18:00 CET
Lars Vogt, Leibniz Information Center for Science & Technology (TIB), Germany
“Boundaries and natural units”
Abstract:
I will present the concept of bona fide and fiat boundaries and review the problems involved with this approach for demarcating natural units, with examples from the life sciences, focussing on issues revolving around granularity and frames of reference. I will then introduce an alternative approach that focusses on the concept of causal unity.

ESAO Launch Event @ FOIS 2021 – CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Description
The IAOA has worked on a new educational effort under the name Educational Series on Applied Ontology (ESAO) that shall be suited for learning about topics of Applied Ontology, primarily established basics and foundations. The series is inspired by the Interdisciplinary Schools on Applied Ontology (ISAO) (next edition in 2023), but — in times of the Corona pandemic — it is complementary in format and its overall approach. The basic idea is a combination of an archive of educational material (for the beginning, short video lectures) and a series of webinars for presenting and discussing that material.
The second Bolzano Summer of Knowledge (BoSK 2021) includes a Launch Event for this new series, which offers a number of webinar sessions according to the new format on a single day.
The ESAO Launch Day will be held in hybrid format on Sep 10, 2021 (Friday), preceding the FOIS conference (Sep 13-16, 2021) [5] in Bozen-Bolzano, Italy. Hybrid means that the experts and the audience can join locally or remotely. The physical event will take place at the Kolpinghaus Bozen, Largo Adolph Kolping 3, Bolzano, Italy.
The Launch Day as well as the overall ESAO Series is open for and welcomes students, researchers and practitioners alike.
