CFP: 1st International Workshop on Finance and Economics on the Semantic Web (FEOSW 2012) in conjunction with 9th Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC 2012)

*CALL FOR PAPERS*

*1st International Workshop on Finance and Economics on the Semantic Web (
FEOSW 2012) in conjunction with 9th Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC
2012)*

Since the global economic downturn, it makes eminent sense that the
workshop topic is tremendously important for the current world-wide Web
research scenario. Currently most research lines delving into financial and
economic data management are critical both from an academic and industry
impact perspective. The intersection between Financial and Economic Data
Management and the Web Science represents an unwavering challenge for the
Semantic Web-related researchers and stakeholders.

The workshop addresses accurately such changes on information demand by
taking place at the right spot in time when the financial world is
envisaging a 'double dip' or a second recession, which will again increase
the levels of Financial and Economic Data Management on the Web and
Semantic Technologies. It aims at bringing together researchers from
several disciplines such as economics, finance, financial data management,
politics and their relationship with Computer Science with a common
interest in new investigations related to the field of finance, economics
and their appliance to the Web and Semantics.
