2nd Call for Systems - OAEI 2017: Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative

--Apologies for cross-posting--

This is the second call for systems for the 2017 edition of the Ontology
Alignment Evaluation Initiative (OAEI):
http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2017/

Since 2004, OAEI has been supporting the extensive and rigorous evaluation
of ontology matching and instance matching techniques.

As last year, system developers must register their interest in
participating in the OAEI 2017:  https://goo.gl/qMiH6x


NEWS
------------------
- Please check the new datasets and instructions of the "Disease and
Phenotype" and "Process Model Matching" tracks:
http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2017/

- We have added the details for the HOBBIT Link Discovery track. This year
we will start adopting the HOBBIT platform to conduct the evaluation of the
HOBBIT Link Discovery track. Systems willing to participate in this track
need to follow different instructions from the SEALS ones:
https://project-hobbit.eu/challenges/om2017/om2017-tasks/

- Submission of systems is open. Please submit the zipped SEALS package
(e.g., LogMap.zip) using this form https://goo.gl/xEwpiq (requires a google
account and a valid email).

- Registration of (new) systems is still open (https://goo.gl/qMiH6x). 23
systems have been registered so far!
