                             CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
                     2nd OWL Reasoner Evaluation Workshop (ORE 2013)
                        Collocated with DL 2013 Workshop
    July 22nd in Ulm, Germany

OBJECTIVES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The goal of this workshop is to bring together both the DEVELOPERS and
END-USERS of reasoners for (subsets of) OWL, including systems focusing on
both intensional (ontology) and extensional (data) query answering. The
workshop will give developers a perfect opportunity to promote their
systems and get feedback from end-users and real uses-cases.



REGISTRATION AND ATTENDING
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Registration for the Description Logic workshop is still open, and the same
registration system is used to register for the OWL Reasoner Evaluation
workshop: https://www.conftool.net/dl2013/

The current registration fees for the ORE workshop on the 22nd July are: 70
EUR regular / 50 EUR students. Registration fees include coffee breaks and
lunch.

If you would like to additionally register for the DL workshop, the fees
are 300 EUR regular / 200 EUR students.

ORE 2013 will be held at the University of Ulm, Germany. Information about

ORE PROGRAMME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

We had some great submissions to ORE 2013 covering a broad range of OWL
reasoning related topics – reasoner system descriptions, challenging
ontologies, performance evaluations, OWL reasoners on mobile devices (!),
and reasoner tips&tricks.

We are very pleased to announce that we accepted nearly 20 papers to be
presented at this year's workshop. Furthermore, 14 systems were submitted
to the competition: http://ore2013.cs.manchester.ac.uk/workshop/programme-2/
