--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers WebS 2011
10th International Workshop on Web Semantics (WebS 2011),
in conjunction with DEXA 2010, 22nd International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications
29 August - 02 September 2011, Toulouse, France http://www.dexa.org/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Colleagues,
you are invited to submit your papers to the 10th International Workshop on Web Semantics (part of the 22nd International Workshop on Database and Expert Systems Applications DEXA), to be held on 29 August - 02 September 2011 in Toulouse, France.
The objective of the workshop Web Semantics (WebS) is to bring together researchers, developers and practitioners to discuss research issues and experience in developing and deploying Semantic Web concepts, applications, and solutions being an international forum for the presentation of both theoretical and applicative results.
Papers describing Semantic Web application experiences are particularly encouraged.
The special topic "Reliability of ontologies" aims on detecting reusable ontologies and measuring the reliability of possible reusable ontology candidates. How can we measure the reliability and the usability of ontologies? Which adaptations of state-of-the-art ontology engineering methodologies are necessary to support modeling reusable ontologies? What measurements for defining and comparing ontologies can be used and how could ontology repositories use them? These are some of the open research questions to be addressed by papers dedicated to this year's special topic.
TOPICS: ======= The relevant topics include the following (but are not limited to):
* Knowledge management and sharing * Interoperability and data integration through semantic technology * Ontology modeling, reuse, extraction, and evolution * Ontology mapping, merging, and alignment * Ontology learning and metadata generation * Ontology evaluation (guidelines)
* Document analysis and semantic extraction * Semantic Web content creation, annotation, and extraction
* Modeling of Semantic Web * Search, integration, and analysis on the Semantic Web * Semantic and context awareness * Semantic Web supporting business processes * Semantic Web for e-sciences * Semantic Web for e-business * Semantic Web mining * Semantic Web data querying and reasoning * Semantic Web inference schemes
* Semantic Web applications - Database technologies for the Semantic Web - Intelligent user interfaces - Dynamic ontology generation and adaptation - Languages, tools and methodologies for semantic annotations of web data - Applications on mobile devices - Enhanced accessibility and multimodal interfaces - Reasoning
* Special Topic: Reliability of ontologies - Ontology evaluation and reliability measurement - Ontological metrics - Ontology comparison - Ontology reuse methods and methodologies (metrics for reusability)
PAPER SUBMISSION DETAILS: ========================= Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research and application papers that are not being considered in another forum. Manuscripts will be limited to 5 two-column pages (IEEE Proceeding style) including figures and references. Please follow the IEEE Computer Society Press Proceedings Author Guidelines to prepare your papers. Authors of accepted papers are requested to sign the IEEE copyright form. The author guidelines can be found at IEEE Conference Publishing Services - Proceedings Author Forms.
Electronic submission of manuscripts (in PDF, postscript, or word format) is required and will be handled via the workshop Web site http://www.faw.jku.at/wwoess/webs/webs.html. For any questions please contact webs@faw.uni-linz.ac.at.
At least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the conference and present the paper. Papers accepted for presentation will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press as proceedings of the DEXA 2011 workshops. Authors are requested to send their paper(s) to be received by March 04, 2011.
EVALUATION PROCESS: =================== All submissions will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and technical soundness. Each paper will be refereed by at least three researchers in the topical area.
IMPORTANT DATES: ================ Paper submission: March 04, 2011 Notification of acceptance: May 16, 2011 Webs 2011 Workshop: 29 August - 02 September, 2011
WEBS CHAIRS: ============ Christina Feilmayr (FAW, Johannes Kepler University of Linz, Austria) Wolfram Wöß (FAW, Johannes Kepler University of Linz, Austria)
