software engineer to: i) develop and/or manage the metalinguistic resources needed
in order to create models of description; and ii) create the models of description
themselves by using the available metalinguistic resources. It also includes tools
which were co-developed with INA-Research and which serve to convert the
ASW
metalinguistic resources*
and the
models of description*

C
CCAProgram
1) Acronym for “Culture Crossroads Archives”.
2) The CCA Program constitutes one of the
experimental workshops*
of the
ASW-HSS project*
, dedicated to compiling an audiovisual corpus documenting
cultural diversity and intercultural communication, putting in place a
metalanguage
of description*
for this domain of knowledge, analyzing the corpus using
ASWStudio*
and publishing the analyzed corpus - also via the
ASW Studio*
- in
the form of a portal offering various forms of access to the corpus in question:
access by
topics of knowledge*
, access by
thesaurus*
, access by
collections of
filmicdocuments*
, etc.
3) A particularly important point which is addressed as part of the CCA program
is the exploitation of audiovisual archives in the context of university education and
the promotion of university heritage (produced, created by researchers, teachers and
students).
4) The ARC program evolves through a series of concrete achievements: a Web
portal comprising the CCA video-library which is composed of a corpus of around
140 hours of audiovisual texts; Twitter and Facebook networks; “aggregation
of content from Netvibes, Scoop.it, etc.” and so on.
5) The URL of the CCA portal site is: http://semioweb.msh-
