Research/Academic Track
Call for Research Papers
Fourth International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2005)
November 6 –10, 2005
Radisson SAS Hotel
Galway, Ireland
http://iswc2005.semanticweb.org
Building on the current architecture for the World Wide Web, Semantic
Web technologies provide a wide range of tools and techniques to support
automated reasoning over distributed representations of Web content.
The Semantic Web will enable a new generation of applications for education,
business, science, and consumer services. It will inspire novel tools
for general collaboration and research. The Semantic Web presents an
unprecedented challenge of scale and heterogeneity to existing work in
expressive representation and query languages, reasoning engines, data
representation and integration, interoperability middleware, and distributed
computing. To foster the exchange of ideas and collaboration, the International
Semantic Web Conference brings together researchers in relevant disciplines
such as artificial intelligence, databases, distributed computing, and
information systems.
The Fourth International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2005) follows
on the success of previous conferences and workshops in Hiroshima, Japan
(2004), Sanibel Island, USA (2003), Sardinia, Italy (2002), and Stanford,
USA (2001).
In addition to this call for papers for the research track, ISWC 2005
will include an industrial track, a poster and demonstration track, and
a special competition known as the Semantic Web Challenge. The calls
for those tracks can be found on the ISWC 2005 Web site, http://iswc2005.semanticweb.org.
The research track of ISWC2005 solicits the submission of original,
principled research papers dealing with both analytical and practical
aspects of semantic Web research. Topics include, but are not limited
to:
Applications of Semantic Web technologies with clear lessons
learned
Semantic Web for e-business, e-science, e-government, and e-learning
User-centered
applications of the Semantic Web
Languages, tools and methodologies for representing
and managing Semantic Web data
Robust and scalable knowledge management
and reasoning on the Web
Ontology creation, extraction, and evolution
Ontology mapping, merging,
and alignment
Database technologies for the Semantic Web
Semantic Web middleware
Machine learning and human language technologies
for the Semantic Web
Semantic Web services
Agents on the Web
Representing and reasoning about trust, privacy,
and security
Semantic web technology for collaboration and cooperation
Social
software
Semantic multimedia
Semantics in peer-to-peer systems and grids
Searching, querying,
visualizing and interpreting the Semantic Web
Evaluation of semantic
Web techniques
Submission Details
Submissions must be received before 11:59 PM PST April 30th, 2005.
This deadline is strict and therefore no extensions will be given.
Papers should be submitted here. Papers must be submitted in
PDF (Adobe's Portable Document Format) format. Papers will not be accepted
in any other format.
Formatted papers must be no longer than 15 pages. Papers that exceed
this limit will be rejected without review.
ISWC2005 will not accept research papers that, at the time of submission,
are under review for or have already been published in or accepted for
publication in a journal or another conference. Authors of accepted papers
will be required to provide semantic annotations for the abstract of
their submission for the Semantic Web (help will be provided for this
task). Details will be provided on the conference Web page at the time
of acceptance
Please monitor ISWC2005.semanticweb.org for any changes to these instructions.
