		<event:abstract><![CDATA[This tutorial by TIm Finin and Harry Chen provides an overview of the use of ontologies
and semantic web languages in mobile and pervasive computing
Applications.  In information systems, ontologies are
explicit formal specifications of a domain's concepts,
objects, and relations. Ontologies provide both a model of
information to be represented and a vocabulary to use in
describing it.  The semantic web languages RDF and OWL have
been developed and standardized by the W3C to allow data and
knowledge to be shared and reused across application,
enterprise, and community boundaries. While originally
envisioned for use in web based application, they are also
well suited for mobile and pervasive environments.  We will
describe the advantages and challenges of using ontologies
and the semantic web languages to model and describe
information and knowledge in distributed systems.]]></event:abstract>
