Motivation
****************************************************************************
  The intent of the SENSEI workshop is to explore, investigate and identify
  unifying strategies for integrating Semantic Web technologies and
  software engineering that enable unambiguous system specification,
  process management and software development.

  Over the last decade, ontologies and linked data have been
  progressively incorporated in developing main-stream and
  mission-critical software applications. Academic research and
  industrial-strength frameworks have investigated the integration of
  model driven engineering and ontologies. While state-of-the-art in
  Semantic Web and linked data has been rapidly advancing to embrace
  data-driven movements such as Open data and Big data, and new business
  models such as mobile and cloud computing are changing the way software
  is engineered, interfaced and distributed, very little effort has been
  made to report on the successes obtained and barriers encountered in
  the integration and consolidation of these highly topical domains of
  Computer science.

  The goal of this workshop is to contribute in furthering the research and
  industrial practices in this domain. In particular, the workshop aims
  to focus on both theoretical and pragmatic approaches that
  systematically address challenges arising during the development and
  engineering of data-intensive, web-scale software applications. The
  workshop would provide a platform for academics, data scientists,
  software engineers and industry experts to share their research
  results, technological concerns, success stories, identify the barriers
  and going forward, develop an agenda that provides an interesting set
  of research objectives and lays out new foundations for
  industrial-strength, semantics-based software engineering practices.

   SENSEI2016 is planned to be a half-day workshop consisting of two 
parts: paper
  and poster presentations.
