Dear colleagues, a gentle reminder that the deadline for the RR2007 submissions (6 February) is rapidly approaching, cf. http://wrrs.info . Thanks and apologies for eventual multiple postings, -M ____________________________________________________________________ ** CALL FOR PAPERS: RR2007 ** RR 2007 The First International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems 7-8 June 2007, Innsbruck (Austria) * NEW DEADLINE for paper submission: 6 Feb 2007 * Web site: http://www.wrrs.info ** INTRODUCTION ** The International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (RR) aims to be the major forum for discussion and dissemination of new results on all topics concerning Web Reasoning and Rule Systems. RR 2007 brings together three previously separate events: the International Workshop on Principles and Practice of Semantic Web Reasoning (PPSWR), the International Conference on Rules and Rule Markup Languages for the Semantic Web (RuleML), and the International Workshop on Reasoning on the Web (RoW). This joint conference is devoted to all aspects of Semantic Web Reasoning, with an emphasis on rule-based approaches and languages. It welcomes both theoretical and practical submissions on this wide subject. The reasoning landscape features theoretical areas such as knowledge representation (KR) and algorithms; design aspects of rule markup; design of ontology languages; engineering of engines, translators, and other tools; standardization efforts, such as the Rules Interchange Format activity at W3C; and applications. Of particular interest is also the use of rules to facilitate ontology modeling, and the relationships and possible interactions between rules and ontology languages like RDF and OWL, as well as ontology reasoning related to RDF and OWL. The conference is supported by REWERSE and RuleML, and conveniently co-located with ESWC. ** SUBMISSIONS ** RR 2007 welcomes original research and application papers dealing with web reasoning and rule systems, with particular attention to the topics listed below. Submissions are expected by 6 Feb 2007 and should not exceed fifteen (15) pages in Springer LNCS format (see http://www.wrrs.info). The proceedings will be published by Springer in the LNCS series, and revised versions of the best papers will be submitted for publication in the prestigious International Journal Knowledge and Information Systems (KAIS). Papers may be accepted as: full papers (15 pages in the proceedings) short papers (8 pages in the proceedings) selected posters (1 page in the proceedings) ** IMPORTANT DATES ** Paper Submission: 6 February 2007 Notification: 9 March, 2007 Camera-Ready Papers due: 19 March, 2007 Conference: 7-8 June, 2007 ** CONFERENCE TOPICS ** Submissions on all topics related to web reasoning and rules systems are welcomed, including (but not limited to) the following: Acquisition of rules and ontologies by knowledge extraction Combining open and closed-world reasoning Combining rules and ontologies Design and analysis of reasoning languages Implemented tools and systems Standardization efforts Ontology and rules usability Ontology and rule languages and their relationships Rules and ontology management (such as inconsistency handling and evolution) Reasoning with uncertainty and under inconsistency Reasoning with constraints Rule languages and systems Rule interchange formats and Rule markup languages Scalability vs. expressivity of reasoning on the web Modularization of rules and ontologies Semantic Web Services modeling and applications Web and Semantic Web applications ** COMMITTEES ** Program Chairs: Massimo Marchiori, UNIPD (IT) Jeff Z.
