CALL FOR PAPERS
4th Asian Semantic Web Conference 2009 (ASWC 2009)
Shanghai, China, 6th-9th December 2009
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A number of prominent members of the Semantic Web community are now
beginning to claim that the Semantic Web has arrived. Semantic Web search
engines now index tens of thousands of ontologies and the term 'Semantic
Web' regularly appears in the mainstream news and culture. Additionally, the
number of Semantic Web events attracting several hundred attendees grows
larger every year and industrial interest includes the majority of the large
software and service companies. The 4th Asian Semantic Web Conference (ASWC
2009) will present the latest research and development of the Semantic Web
and its related technologies. It will bring together researchers in relevant
disciplines such as artificial intelligence, knowledge modeling, logic,
databases, social networks, Web services, distributed computing, Web
engineering, information systems, natural language processing, multimedia,
and human-computer interaction.
ASWC 2009 will include a Research Track, a Semantic Web in Use Track, a
Poster and Demonstration Track. ASWC2009 will announce soon the call for
workshops, tutorials and demos.
Submissions
Paper Submission page: https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=aswc2009
The Research Track solicits the submission of original, principled research
papers dealing with theoretical, methodological, empirical and
application-related aspects of the Semantic Web. The Semantic Web in Use
Track solicits the submission of innovative and practical application papers
which take into account real-world requirements. All papers should clearly
demonstrate relevance to the Semantic Web - fully taking into account
aspects related to both semantics and the Web.
The proceedings of ASWC 2009 will be published in Springer's Lecture Notes
in Computer Science series. Paper submission and reviewing will be
electronic via the conference submission site. Papers should not exceed 15
pages in length and must be formatted according to the information for LNCS
authors.
Topics include but are not limited to the following:
Semantic Web Technologies
