                   CALL FOR PAPERS
                     DESWeb 2014
5th International Workshop on Data Engineering Meets the Semantic Web
              Co-located with ICDE 2014
                   Chicago, IL, USA

-----------------------------------------------------

*** Focus ***

The DESWeb workshop on "Data Engineering meets the Semantic Web" aims at
bringing together researchers from two traditionally separated communities:
Semantic Web and Databases. Although in recent years the two communities
have been getting closer, there is still great potential for mutual
collaboration and benefit.


*** Call for regular paper submissions ***

The DESWeb workshop solicits short papers (of up to 6 pages in the IEEE
format) on research results and ongoing projects in this thematic area.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Structured data on the Web
* Ontologies and data integration
* Scalable triple stores and query processing
* Linked data and entity resolution
* Knowledge graphs
* Reasoning over Web data and services
* Semantic authoring and crowdsourcing
* Provenance and trust in Web data
* Distributed query processing and optimization
* Data quality and uncertainty
* Data freshness and updates
* Data mining and knowledge discovery
* Semantic Search
and all other topics at the crossroads of Semantic Web and Data Engineering
research.


*** Call for late-breaking results, visions, or challenges ***

We also encourage the submission of short papers (of up to 3 pages in the
IEEE format) with late-breaking results, visions, or challenges. The main
objective of such papers is to start a discussion on difficult and open
problems or outline visions of future systems and approaches.


*** Important Dates ***

Submission deadline for regular papers: November 4, 2013
Submission deadline for late-breaking results & visions: November 4, 2013
Notification to authors: December 6, 2013
Camera-ready versions : December 20, 2013


*** Submission Instructions ***

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that
are not being considered for publication in any other forum. Regular papers
should be 6 pages long, and papers on late-breaking results or on visions
and challenges should not exceed 3 pages.

All accepted papers will be published in the ICDE workshops proceedings.

Both regular and late-breaking/vision papers should be formatted according
to the IEEE formatting guidelines, and submitted electronically as PDF
files through the following website:
