Workshop Description
As the fields of Semantic Web and Ontologies continue to mature, exploring their relationships with the area of databases systems has become crucial. This year the organizers of SWDB and ODBIS Workshops have joined efforts in organizing a workshop whose objective is to present databases and information systems research as they relate to ontologies and semantic web.
