==================== Apologies for multiple postings ======================== 7th Extended Semantic Web Conference 30 May - 3 June 2010 | Heraklion, Greece General chair: Lora Aroyo, VU University Amsterdam, NL Program chairs: Grigoris Antoniou, University of Crete, GR Eero Hyvönen, Helsinki University of Technology, FI ============================ Call for Papers ============================ The mission of the Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC2010) is to bring together researchers and practitioners dealing with different aspects of semantics on the Web. ESWC2010 builds on the success of the former European Semantic Web Conference series, but seeks to extend its focus by collaborating with other communities and research areas, in which web semantics play an important role ‐‐ within and outside ICT. At the same time, ESWC2010 is a truly international conference, not only "European". Semantics of web content, enriched with domain theories (ontologies), data about web usage, natural language processing, etc. will enable a web that provides a qualitatively new level of functionality. It will weave together a large network of human knowledge and make this knowledge machine‐processable. Various automated services, based on reasoning with metadata and ontologies, will help the users to achieve their goals by accessing and processing information in machine‐understandable form. This network of knowledge systems will ultimately lead to truly intelligent systems, which will be employed for various complex decision‐making tasks. Research about web semantics can benefit from ideas and cross‐fertilization with many other areas: Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Database and Information Systems, Information Retrieval, Multimedia, Distributed Systems, Social Networks, Web Engineering, and Web Science. ESWC2010 will present the latest results in research and applications in its field. The research program will be organised in targeted research tracks. In addition, the conference will feature a tutorial program, system descriptions and demos, a posters track, a Ph.D. symposium, and a number of collocated workshops. The individual calls for these events can be found on the conference Web site (http://www.eswc2010.org/ ). ============================ Important Dates ============================ Abstract Submission December 15, 2009 (compulsory) Full Paper Submission December 22, 2009 (11:59 pm Hawaii time) Notification February 24, 2010 Camera Ready March 10, 2010 More information available online: http://www.eswc2010.org =================== Conference Tracks and Submissions =================== To reflect its extended scope, the ESWC2010 research program is organised in a number of tracks. Their specific topics of interest and submission addresses are listed on the conference website: http://www.eswc2010.org/calls The proceedings of this conference will be published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Paper submission and reviewing for ESWC2010 will be electronic via the conference submissions site. Papers should not exceed fifteen (15) pages in length and must be formatted according to the information for LNCS authors. Papers must be submitted in PDF (Adobe's Portable Document Format) format and will *not* be accepted in any other format. Papers that exceed 15 pages or do not follow the LNCS guidelines risk being rejected automatically without a review. Authors of accepted papers will be required to provide semantic annotations for the abstract of their submission ‐‐ details of this process will be provided on the conference Web page at the time of acceptance. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference. Each paper must be submitted to the most appropriate of the eight research tracks: == Web of Data == Paul Groth, VU University Amsterdam |Denny Vrandecic, AIFB Universitaet Karlsruhe, http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010webofdatatrack == Ontologies and Reasoning == Jeff Pan, University of Aberdeen | Adrian Paschke, FU Berlin http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010ontologiesandreasoning == Software and Services == Andreas Metzger, University of Duisburg‐Essen | Elena Simperl, STI Innsbruck http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010servicesandsoftwaretra == Sensor Networks == Alan Smeaton, Dublin City University | Oscar Corcho, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010sensornetworkstrack == Mobility == Matthias Wagner, Docomo Lab Europe | Hans Gellersen, University of Lancaster, http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010mobilitytrack == Web Science == Nosh Contractor, Northwestern University| Les Carr, University of Southampton http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010websciencetrack == Social Web == Julita Vassileva, University of Saskatchewan | Jie Bao, RPI http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010socialwebtrack == Sematic Web in Use == Stuart Campbell, TIE | Sören Auer, University of Leipzig http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc2010semanticwebinusetrack
