First ESAO Webinar
November 9th, 11:00-12:00 EST, 17:00-18:00 CET


Description
-----------

The IAOA [1] has created the Educational Series on Applied Ontology 
(ESAO) [2], 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 [3]). 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 [4] 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 will be published soon.


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.
