[We apologies to those who receive this announcement multiple times.] The application form for the Web Intelligence Summer School on The Web of Data (WISS 2014) has been published [1]. A pre-programme has been published too [2]. The summer school will culminate in a hackathon where participants will develop Web applications using and producing Web data. Moreover, in the spirit of open collaboration, the applications and data produced during the summer school will be made available to the organisers of the ESWC Summer School that will take place the following week in Crete [3].

Recently, Web data has become crucial to our daily life. Open data is transforming institutions, people are sharing increasingly private and sensitive data on social networks, access to web APIs facilitates application development, and linked data is changing the Web into a huge database. The Web of Data is thus complementing the existing Web of multimedia documents, the Social Web and the Web of Applications. In this situation everybody should be aware of data management, manipulation, access and visualisation. During one week, the Web Intelligence community in Rhône-Alpes and Universität Bonn will bring together Web of Data experts who will equip the participants with scientific and practical competence via lectures and hands-on sessions, enabling them to contribute to and take advantage of the full potential of the Web of Data. Important Dates =============== * Opening of application for participation: 15 March 2014 * End of application: 30 May 2014 * Notification of acceptance: 7 June 2014 * Deadline for registration: 30 June 2014 * Summer school: 25-29 August 2014 Programme overview ================== Expected topics are: * publishing and organising Web data * querying and structuring Web data * reasoning on the Web of data * mining the Web of data * visualising the Web of data * protecting data in the Web of data We will gradually complete the programme information on the homepage as soon as the speakers confirm their attendance. Speakers have been invited from the best known institutions in the field, in order to ensure highest quality in content and pedagogy. In the meantime, feel free to send us any enquiries by email. Attendance ========== We welcome international participants. In case we receive more than the 50 applications we can host, we will select attendees based on their CVs and motivation. The participation fee will be €300 for students and €400 otherwise.
