SEMANTiCS’18 proceedings will be published as Open Access by
Elsevier Procedia Computer Science.
The annual SEMANTiCS conference is the meeting place for
professionals who make semantic computing work, understand its
benefits, and encounter its limitations. Every year, SEMANTiCS
attracts information managers, IT-architects, software engineers
and researchers from a wide spectrum of organisations ranging from
SMEs and non-profit organizations, to public administration
bodies, to the largest companies in the world. Attendees learn
from industry experts and top researchers about emerging trends
and topics in the fields of semantic software, including
enterprise data, linked data & open data strategies,
methodologies in knowledge modelling and text & data
analytics. The SEMANTiCS community is highly diverse; attendees
routinely interlinking areas such as knowledge management,
technical documentation, e-commerce, big data analysis, enterprise
search, document management, business intelligence and enterprise
vocabulary management.
Given the success of last year’s conference in Amsterdam, which
attracted more than 370 attendees from 28 countries, SEMANTiCS
2018 is bound to continue a long tradition of bringing together a
community from around the world. There will be presentations on
industry implementations, use case prototypes, best practices,
panels, papers and posters to discuss semantic systems in a broad
range of regular as well as informal settings. SEMANTiCS addresses
problems common among information managers, software engineers,
IT-architects and various specialist departments working to
develop, implement and evaluate semantic software systems.
The SEMANTiCS program will provide a rich mix of technical talks,
panel discussions on emerging topics and presentations by people
who make things work - just like you. In addition, attendees will
have a unique opportunity to network with experts in a variety of
fields. These relationships provide great value to organisations
as they encounter technical challenges in any stage of
implementation. The expertise gained by SEMANTiCS attendees has a
long-term impact on their careers and organisations. These factors
make SEMANTiCS the key event across Europe for a diverse community
of industry leaders and academic experts alike.
Following the success of the previous year, this year’s SEMANTiCS
will also again feature a special Data Science track, which offer
a unique opportunity to bring together researchers and
practitioners interested in the intersection of Semantic
Technologies, Linked Data and Data Science and provide a platform
to present their ideas and discuss the most important scientific,
technical and socio-economic challenges in this emerging field.
SEMANTiCS 2018 particularly welcomes submissions on the following
key topics:
*Web Semantics, Linked (Open) Data & schema.org
*Corporate Knowledge Graphs
*Knowledge Integration and Language Technologies

# Vocarnival
Bootstrap your new Vocabulary project: At the carnival you can
present your ideas and early stage vocabs to find the right people
to get the Vocab discussion going. For this event we use a very
open definition of what a vocabulary is. Ontologies,
classifications, thesauri, concept and metadata schemes, whatever
their format, in RDF or not, are all welcome. We require at least
a project website. Details to follow.
The detailed calls will be available on the conference website
