Standards for Smart Applications (2nd Call for Papers)

(Apologies for cross-posting, if you receive multiple copies of this 
message) 

Standards for Smart Applications (S4SA) is an ECAI 2012 workshop on 
knowledge representation standards and integrating knowledge sources, with 
a focus on bridging across heterogeneous standards, as a way to avoid the 
creation of "knowledge representation silos".

---------------------------------------------------- 

The objective of this workshop is to promote research and education on the 
combination and integration of knowledge representation standards. 

Here, knowledge representation standards are meant in a broad sense, not 
limited to what is traditionally seen as knowledge representation in the 
Artificial Intelligence and semantic technology communities: this workshop 
will consider integration and bridges between OWL, RIF, RuleML and other 
?traditional? knowledge representation standards, but also with and 
between BPMN, SBVR, XBRL, fact-based modelling standards such as ORM, 
XML-based and non-XML industry standards such as MISMO, HL7, X9, ACORD and 
many more. 

The workshop will gather researchers and practitioners interested in 
knowledge representation standards and in the standard-based integration 
of multiple knowledge representations for the development of smarter 
applications and for the broader adoption of knowledge-based technology. 

Papers and contributions are invited on all the theoretical, technical and 
practical aspects of combining multiple knowledge representation 
standards, such as, but not limited to: 
- Semantics for combinations of knowledge representation standards 
- Technology that combines multiple standard knowledge representations 
- Mapping and translation between standards 
- Extending VS combining standards 
- Requirements on new standards and extensions of existing standards to 
improve inter-operability of diverse knowledge representation paradigms 
- Experience with standard-based integration of multiple knowledge 
representations 
- New, emerging and proposed knowledge representation standards (and how 
they fit in the bigger picture) 
- Use cases and requirements with standard-based integration of multiple 
knowledge representations 
- Performance and scalability issues related to standard-based integration 
of multiple knowledge representations
