FAO-UN, Roma, Italy 15-17 December 2008

SWAP 2008 aims at giving an overview of work performed by the Semantic
Web community, and aims to attract researchers, developers and
interested practitioners alike.
The setting for the workshop is highly interactive, and presentations
are expected to focus on practical aspects and open problems.
The workshop will cover either theoretical or implementation issues
that relate to Semantic Web Applications.
This year SWAP will feature tutorials and keynote lectures by
internationally renowned researchers from the Semantic Web community
(see below).
The workshops will include 25 scientific papers presentations and a
poster session.
As a joint event with SWAP, the artist Gerry Turano will present an
exhibition including drawings, reliefs, and sculptures that are
