The DL workshop is the major annual event of the description logic
research


community. It is the forum at which those interested in description
logics,


both from academia and industry, meet to discuss ideas, share
information and


compare experiences. The 32nd edition will be held in Oslo, Norway from


June 18th to June 21st, 2019.

Workshop Scope


==============


We invite contributions on all aspects of description logics, including
but


not limited to:


* Foundations of description logics: decidability and complexity of
reasoning, expressive power, novel inference problems, inconsistency
management,


 reasoning techniques, and modularity aspects 
* Extensions of description logics: closed-world and nonmonotonic
reasoning, epistemic reasoning, temporal and spatial reasoning,
procedural knowledge,


 query answering, reasoning over dynamic information
* Integration of description logics with other formalisms: object-
oriented representation languages, database query languages,
constraint-based


 programming, logic programming, and rule-based systems 
* Applications and use areas of description logics: ontology
engineering, ontology languages, databases, ontology-based data access,
semi-structured


 data, graph-structured data, linked data, document management, natural
language, learning, planning, Semantic Web, cloud computing, conceptual


 modeling, web services, business processes


* Systems and tools around description logics: reasoners, software
tools for and using description logic reasoning (e.g. ontology editors,
database


 schema design, query optimization, and data integration tools),
implementation and optimization techniques, benchmarking, evaluation,
modeling


Invited Speakers
================

* Pablo Barceló, Universidad de Chile, Chile  

* Meghyn Bienvenu, Université de Bordeaux, France

* Gerhard Lakemeyer, RWTH Aachen, Germany







Submissions


===========


Submissions may be of two types:





(1) We invite regular papers of up to 11 pages. If the authors prefer
the paper to not appear in the proceedings, an additional 2-page
abstract of the paper has to be submitted (the 2-page abstract would
appear in the proceedings, in case of acceptance).





(2) Papers accepted or under review at some other conference can be
submitted to the DL workshop. They should be submitted together with a
2-page abstract that also specifies where the paper has been accepted
or is under review. Only the 2-page abstract would appear in the
proceedings, in case of acceptance. 





* The regular papers and the 2-page abstracts must be formatted using
the Springer LNCS style. The list of references in these submissions
does not count towards the page limit.

* DL 2019 allows (but does not require) submissions to be anonymous,
i.e. the PC members and the reviewers will not see the identity of
authors in the submission system (EasyChair). If you wish to conceal
your identity, please don’t forget to omit it from the PDF file you are
submitting. 





* The option to publish a 2-page abstract is designed for authors who
wish to announce results that have been published elsewhere, or which
the authors intend to submit or have already submitted to a venue with
an incompatible prior/concurrent publication policy.





* All submissions may optionally include a clearly marked appendix
(e.g., with additional proofs or evaluation data). The appendix will be
read at the discretion of the reviewers and not included in the
proceedings. The appendix does not need to be in LNCS format.





* Accepted regular papers and 2-page abstracts will be made available
electronically in the CEUR Workshop Proceedings series (
http://www.CEUR-ws.org/).





* Accepted submissions, be they regular papers or 2-page abstracts,
will be selected for either oral or poster presentation at the
workshop. Submissions will be judged solely based on their content, and
the type of submission will have no bearing on the decision between
oral and poster presentation.
