CALL FOR PAPERS
4th International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (RR 2010)
Bressanone/Brixen, Italy September 22-24, 2010
http://www.rr-conference.org/RR2010
Co-located with the Italian Workshop on Semantic Web Applications and Perspectives (SWAP) 2010.
The International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (RR) is a major forum for discussion and dissemination of new results concerning Web Reasoning and Rule Systems. RR 2010 builds on the success of the first three International Conferences on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (see http://www.rr-conference.org), held in Innsbruck, Austria (2007), Karlsruhe, Germany (2008), and Chantilly, Virginia, USA (2009), which received enthusiastic support from the Web Reasoning community. In 2010, RR will continue the excellence of the new series and aim to attract the best Web Reasoning and Rules researchers from all over the world.
Suggested topics include the following (but are not limited to):
* Representation techniques for Web-based knowledge * Acquisition of rules and ontologies by knowledge extraction * Combining open and closed-world reasoning * Combining rules and ontologies * Design and analysis of reasoning languages * Efficiency and benchmarking * Implemented tools and systems * Foundations and applications related to relevant standardization bodies such as the W3C Rule Interchange Format (RIF), Web Ontology Language (OWL2) and SPARQL working groups, or the W3C Uncertainty Reasoning for the WWW Incubator Group, etc. * Ontology usability * Ontology languages and their relationships * Querying and optimization * Rules and ontology management (such as inconsistency handling and evolution) * Reasoning with uncertainty and under inconsistency * Reasoning with constraints * Rule languages and systems * Rule interchange formats and Rule markup languages * Scalability vs. expressivity of reasoning on the Web * Approximate reasoning techniques for the Web * Integration of statistical methods and symbolic reasoning * Stream reasoning * Semantic Web Services modeling and applications * Web and Semantic Web applications and experience papers
PUBLICATION
The proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series and will be available at the conference. After the conference, there will be a special issue of the (new IOS Press) journal "Semantic Web - Interoperability, Usability, Applicability" with selected papers from the conference (see http://www.semantic-web-journal.net).
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Submissions must be typeset using the Springer LaTeX2e style llncs for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (see http://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/Authors.html), and must be in PDF format. Submission is via EasyChair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rr2010).
The length should not exceed 15 pages for full papers, 9 pages for short papers, 4 pages for posters, and 6 pages for system descriptions (for system demos at the conference). The stated lengths include title, abstract, and references. Short papers, posters, and system descriptions should be clearly marked as such in the title and in the easychair submission system. Submissions that deviate substantially from these guidelines may be rejected without review. Original research and application papers are welcome; submissions will especially be judged for originality and scientific quality. All accepted papers, posters, and system descriptions will be included in the proceedings.
