* Submission

Submissions to JIST 2015 in-use track should describe original, significant
research on the semantic technologies. Submissions to JIST 2015 are
expected to present their claimed contribution, with clear evidence to
support their claims. All submissions will be critically reviewed by at
least three members of the program committee. To assess submissions,
reviewers will judge their relevance to semantic technologies, their
originality, the technical soundness of their proposed approach and the
readability of the submission.

Submissions must be in PDF format, using the style of the Springer
Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
Submissions must be no longer than *10* pages for the in-use track.
Submissions that are less than 10 pages can be considered. However, when
selecting best papers, we will give preference to those submissions that
are more than 9 pages. JIST 2015 will not accept submissions that are under
