Submission

Submissions to JIST 2011 should describe original, significant
research on the semantic technologies. Submissions to JIST 2011 are
expected to present their claimed contribution, with clear evidence to
support their claims. All submissions will be critically reviewed by
at least three members of the program committee. To assess
submissions, reviewers will judge their relevance to semantic
technologies, their originality, the technical soundness of their
proposed approach and the readability of the submission. Submissions
must be in PDF format, using the style of the Springer Publications
format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). Submissions must
be no longer than 12 pages. Submissions that exceed this limit may be
rejected without review. JIST 2011 will not accept submissions that
are under review for or have already been published in or accepted for
publication in a journal or another conference.

All submissions be submitted via EasyChair at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jist2011

Accepted papers will be distributed to conference attendees and also
published by Springer in their Lecture Notes in Computer Science
series (http://www.springer.com/lncs ). At least one author of each
accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper
there. Selected papers will be requested for an extension and
published in Journal of World Wide Web (SCI), Journal of Computing and
Informatics (SCI), etc.
