Call for Papers WebS 2009
8th International Workshop on Web Semantics (WebS 2009),
in conjunction with DEXA 2009 20th International Conference on Databaseand Expert Systems Applications
31 August - 04 September 2009, Linz, Austria http://www.dexa.org/
Dear Colleagues,
you are invited to submit your papers to the 8th International Workshop on Web Semantics (part of the 20th International Workshop on Database and Expert Systems Applications DEXA), to be held on 31 August - 04 September 2009 in Linz, Austria.
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 Webapplication experiences are particularly encouraged.
TOPICS: ======= The relevant topics include the following (but are not limited to):
* Knowledge management and sharing * Modeling of Semantic Web * Ontology modeling, reuse, extraction, and evolution * Semantic and context awareness * Interoperability and data integration through semantic technology * Search, integration, and analysis on the Semantic Web * Ontology mapping, merging, and alignment * Semantic Web data querying and reasoning * Document analysis and semantic extraction * Semantic Web supporting business processes * Semantic Web for e-sciences * Semantic Web for e-business * Semantic Web mining * Semantic Web inferences 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 track: Ontologies in Biomedicine - Ontologies for genetics, proteomics, diseases, privacy etc. - Conceptual models for biological and medical data - Semantics in biological data modeling - Use of semantics to manage interoperation in biomedical databases - Semantic Web technologies and formalisms for biomedical data - Ontology representation and exchange languages for bioinformatics - Support of ontologies for biological information retrieval and web services - Change management in biomedical ontologies - Tools for development and management of biomedical ontologies
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://confdriver.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/. 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 2009 workshops. Authors are requested to send their paper(s) to be received by March 06,2009.
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 06, 2009 Notification of acceptance: May 08, 2009 Camera-ready copies due: May 27, 2009 Webs 2009 Workshop: 31 August - 04 September, 2009
