[Apologies if you received multiple copies because of cross-posting] =========================================================== 1st International Workshop on Ontology Engineering in a Data-Driven World – OEDW 2012 Full-day workshop at EKAW 2012 (Galway, Ireland) October 8th or 9th, 2012 http://granvia.dia.fi.upm.es/oedw2012/ =========================================================== * Motivation* - Is the current data-driven world going to kill ontologies? - Are we navigating towards a shallow Web of Data? The purpose of the initial edition of the 1st International Workshop on Ontology Engineering in a Data-driven World is to discuss challenges and opportunities for the Ontology Engineering discipline in the context of the further evolving Linked Data success story. To achieve this we call for papers which deal with topics such as guidelines, methods, and tools for Linked Data engineering; methods for ontology reuse in the Linked Data context, methods and techniques for ontology mapping in the Linked Data context, guidelines, methods, and tools for database to RDF mappings; life cycle management in the context of Linked Data; creation of knowledge out of (Linked) Open Data; ontology repositories; empirical findings and statistics about ontologies underlying Linked Data; case studies on Ontology Engineering in the context of Linked Data; amongst others. As a special feature we also call for position papers that address the two aforementioned core questions of the workshop and which can be seen controversial from either an Ontology Engineering perspective or a Linked Data perspective. * Topics* The topics of submissions to this workshop are not strictly limited but should primarily focus on: - Guidelines, methods, and tools for Linked Data engineering - Methods for ontology/vocabulary reuse in the Linked Data context - Methods and techniques for ontology/vocabulary mapping and alignment in the Linked Data context - Guidelines, methods, and tools for RDB to RDF mappings - Life cycle management in the context of Linked Data - Creation of knowledge out of Linked Open Data - Ontology/vocabulary repositories - Empirical findings and statistics about ontologies underlying Linked Data - Case studies on Ontology Engineering in the context of Linked Data * Important dates * Paper submission deadline: August 10th, 2012 Notification of acceptance: September 5th, 2012 Camera ready submission deadline: September 14th, 2012 * Contributions * Paper submission must be electronic via EasyChair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=oedw2012). The papers should be written in English, follow Springer LNCS format, and be submitted in PDF. Submissions of regular research papers must not exceed 10 pages. Submissions of position papers must not exceed 4 pages. Proceedings will be distributed to the participants during the workshop, and made available online as CEUR-WS proceedings. If the number of high-quality submissions is adequate, we will pursue publishing the proceedings as a journal special issue. * Chairs * - Markus Luczak-Rösch, Freie Universität Berlin (Germany) - Elena Simperl, KIT (Germany) - Mari Carmen Suárez-Figueroa, Ontology Engineering Group at UPM (Spain) * Program Committee (to be completed) * - Mathieu d’Aquin, Knowledge Media Institute, Open University, United Kingdom - Sören Auer, AKSW Universität Leipzig, Germany - Chris Bizer, Web-based Information Systems, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany - Richard Cyganiak, DERI, Ireland - Mariano Fernández-López, Universidad San Pablo CEU, Spain - Marko Grobelnik, Jozef Stefan Institute, Slovenia - Paul Groth, VU Amsterdam, Netherlands - Giancarlo Guizzardi, Federal University of Espírito Santo (UFES), Brazil - Michael Hausenblas, DERI, Ireland - Knud Möller, Talis, United Kingdom - Viktoria Pammer, Know Center, Austria - Juan Sequeda, University of Austin Texas, USA - Valentina Tamma, University of Liverpool, United Kingdom - Boris Villazón-Terrazas, Ontology Engineering Group, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain - Tania Tudorache, Stanford Biomedical Informatics, EEUU - Fouad Zablith, Knowledge Media Institute, Open University, United Kingdom - Valentina Presutti, ISTC-CNR, Italy -------------------------------------------------------------- Dipl.-Inform.
