The DESWEB workshop on "Data Engineering meets the Semantic Web" aims to bring
together Semantic Web people and database systems researchers. With recent
developments on Web-scale semantic graphs and related trends, there is great
potential for cross-fertilization and collaboration.


This year's DESWEB workshop will have two keynote talks, one research session on regular papers and one research session on late-breaking results, visions and challenges.
