Wednesday 12th we will be hosting a special session entitled:
"Science with the Virtual Observatory: status, success cases,
the future"<br>
<br>
Virtual Observatory (VO) is a well known and firmly established
global collaboration, with demonstrated capacity to provide
smooth access to astronomical data, theoretical models,
simulations and analysis tools. All these immense resources of
different kind can interactively operate thanks to complete and
flexible standards, which are continuously revised. This Special
Session will a forum where the most successful use cases of VO
may be shared, and also a site where the major challenges for
the coming years may be identified. <br>
</p>
<p>Among the questions that will be addressed: <br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Current status and capabilities of VO</li>
<li>Training, tutorials and schools</li>
<li>Publishing your data in VO</li>
<li>Science cases using VO: covering all electromagnetic windows</li>
<li>Science cases using VO: time domain</li>
<li>Science cases using VO: multimessenger astronomy</li>
<li>Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and VO<br>
</li>
</ul>
<p> <br>
We invite applications for talks and scientific posters that
fall into these categories. The deadline for abstract submission
is 01/03/22.<br>
<br>
