--------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- FOCUS --------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------

Computational science techniques require in many cases models and representations of knowledge for the complex processes supporting research in the different fields , and complex models are also required to capture the research context itself . This has resulted in the development of ontologies, metadata schemas and other kinds of models that are shared, reused and enriched for computational science tasks continuously. Relevant examples are scientific ontologies as the Gene Ontology or the Plant Ontology and metadata schemas as the Ecological Metadata Language (EML), but many other models that are less used are regularly used in computational science research.

--------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- AIMS, SCOPE AND TOPICS --------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------

The KREAM workshop aims at gathering high quality research results about the use of knowledge representations, schemas and models in computational science for concrete applications, or papers dealing with the analysis, development or evaluation of the representations themselves.

The workshop complements other workshops that are specific to some discipline or technique providing an inter-disciplinary account that emphasizes the role of knowledge representations and ontologies use in computational science contexts, providing opportunities for the transfer of techniques from domains and exposing advanced practices using models that may be reused across different disciplines. The KREAM workshop has been successfully organized in the last three editions of the ICCS conference. (http://www.iccs-meeting.org/) This year's proposal is consolidating and opening the workshop to additional organizers to bring a more inter-disciplinary orientation.
