SCOPE
*****
One major aim of the Semantic Web is to enable a machine-processable Web of data. Hence the Semantic Web community regards the Semantic Web as extension of the traditional web. On the other hand applications of the Semantic Web rely deeply on web technologies in order to work in a distributed fashion world-wide.
The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from these communities to address the challenges in Semantic Web and Web technologies in cooperation. We are especially interested in papers demonstrating how new technologies of the Web and Semantic Web complete each other. We also welcome papers with focus on and contribution to any of the two areas, including new approaches, techniques and applications, with substantial theoretical and empirical contributions to, and significant advancement of the state of the art of Web and/or Semantic Web.
We welcome papers on the following (incomplete) list of topics. We especially welcome papers combining the Semantic and Web Technologies worlds and having contributions in both areas.
Semantic Web:
- Semantic Data Management and Optimization (Big Data, Cloud Computing, Graph Databases, Federations, Spatial Data)
- Semantic Web Applications in specific domains, e.g., Life Science, e-Government, e-Environment, e-Health, e-Learning, e-Business, e-Commerce
- Rule-based Languages like RIF and SWRL
- Ontology-based Approaches for Modelling, Mapping, Evolution and Real-world ontologies
- Reasoning Approaches (Real-World Applications, Efficient Algorithms)
- Linked Data (Integration of Heterogeneous Linked Data, Real-World Applications, Statistics and Visualizations, Quality, Ranking Techniques, Provenance, Mining and Consuming Linked Data)
- Semantic Web stream processing (Dynamic Data, Temporal Semantics)
- Semantic Internet of Things, Semantic Smart Homes/Companies/Cities
- Performance, Evaluation and Benchmarking of Semantic Web Technologies, Applications and Databases
- Semantic Web Services
- Microformats, RDFa, Microdata, JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data (JSON-LD), GRDDL, Open Graph protocol
Web Technologies:
- Web protocols and standards
- Web Components
- New forms of Web Applications
- Web Security and Privacy, Web and Online Trust
- Web Usability
- Web Mining, Web Information Retrieval
- e-Commerce, e-Business
- e-Government, e-Society
- e-Learning
