The DESWEB workshop on "Data Engineering meets the Semantic Web" aims to
bring
together Semantic Web people and database systems researchers. With recent
developments on Web-scale semantic graphs and related trends, there is great
potential for cross-fertilization and collaboration.


*** Call for regular paper submissions ***

We solicit papers (of up to 6 pages in the IEEE format) on research results
and ongoing projects. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
structured data on the web, scalable triple stores and query processing,
ontologies and data integration, linked data and entity resolution,
knowledge
graphs, reasoning over web data and services, semantic authoring and
crowdsourcing, provenance of and trust in web data. Link to the DESWEB 2013
submission site: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=desweb2013 .


*** Call for late-breaking results, visions or challenges ***

We also encourage the submission of short papers (of up to 2 pages in the
IEEE
format) with late-breaking results or on visions and challenges. The
emphasis
of such papers should be on radical ideas rather than established
approaches,
difficult and open problems rather than solutions, or research opportunities
off the beaten paths rather than mainstream topics.


*** Important Dates ***

Deadline for regular paper submissions: Monday, October 29, 2012
Deadline for late-breaking results & visions: Monday, November 26, 2012
Notification to authors: Monday, December 3, 2012
Camera-ready papers : Friday, December 21, 2012
