[CFP] ESWC: Demos and Posters due on Feb 24

[Apologies for cross-posting]

For your convenience, this email combines two independent calls:
(1) ESWC Demos (top) and (2) ESWC Posters (below). Both have the same 
chairs and deadlines. Also note that the ESWC tutorial submission 
deadline is only tomorrow, after it had been extended recently
(see http://2012.eswc-conferences.org/call-tutorials).

(1) ESWC 2012 Call for System Demonstrations
http://2012.eswc-conferences.org/

The demonstrations track of the 9th Extended Semantic Web Conference 
complements the overall program of the conference with demonstrations of 
real-world, proven-and-tested advances of semantic technologies. In 
addition to papers and posters presenting latest theoretical 
achievements, the ESWC2012 is seeking demonstrations of novel 
applications of semantics in various sectors, as well as innovative 
enabling technologies and deployment infrastructures relevant for the 
topics of interest of the main conference and the research and poster 
tracks.

Submissions to the demonstrations track must be in form of a textual 
description of the demonstration to be given at the conference (which 
may include screenshots and a sample script for the demo). The 
submissions must be at most 5 pages long (Springer LNCS style) and 
submitted as PDF. Decisions about acceptance will be based on relevance 
to the Semantic Web area, originality, potential significance, 
topicality and clarity. Papers that exceed the given page length or do 
not follow the LNCS guidelines will be rejected without a review.

1. What is the research background and application context of the 
demonstration
2. What is the key technology used, and how does the demonstrated 
system, application or infrastructure relate to pre-existing work
3. What exactly will be demonstrated? What exactly will a visitor of the 
demonstration learn

(2) ESWC2012 Call for Posters
http://2012.eswc-conferences.org/

The poster track of the 9th Extended Semantic Web Conference will 
provide an opportunity for presenting late-breaking results, ongoing 
research projects, and speculative or innovative work in progress. 
Posters are intended to provide authors and participants with the 
ability to connect with each other and to engage in discussions about 
the work. Technical posters, reports on semantic systems, descriptions 
of completed work, and work in progress are equally welcome.

Authors must submit a 2-page paper (PDF, Springer LNCS style) with a 
short abstract for evaluation. The paper must clearly demonstrate 
relevance to the Semantic Web and the topics of interest of ESWC 2012. 
Submissions will be evaluated by a separate Program Committee. Decisions 
about acceptance will be based on relevance to the Semantic Web, 
originality, potential significance, topicality and clarity. Papers that 
exceed the given page length or do not follow the LNCS guidelines will 
be rejected without a review.

Papers submitted to the research track will NOT automatically be 
considered for the poster track. A separate poster submission must be 
made. For example, a poster can be provided for an accepted paper or can 
be used to present work that was insufficiently mature for the research 
track.
