[CFP] WOP2018: submission deadline extended to June 11, 2018

Dear colleagues,

The 9th Workshop on Ontology Design and Patterns (WOP2018) will be held 
on October 8-9, 2018 in Monterey, CA, USA, in conjunction with the 17th 
International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2018). The workshop website 
is at: http://ontologydesignpatterns.org/wiki/WOP:2018

The paper submission deadline is extended to *June 11, 2018* (abstracts 
are due *June 5, 2018*).

*Call for papers*:
We invite you to submit high-quality research papers (maximum 15 pages 
LNCS style) and short papers (maximum 5 pages LNCS style). The main 
topics include:

  *      Ontology design patterns, analyses of ODP use, and analyses of
    pattern-based ontologies
  *      Correspondence patterns for ontology matching and integration
  *      Knowledge patterns and knowledge reengineering based on patterns
  *      Antipatterns and their relations to ODPs
  *      Methods and tools for developing high-quality ontologies,
    including ontology engineering by domain experts
  *      Analyses of quality attributes in ontologies and ontology
    engineering, and quality assurance approaches for ontology engineering
  *      Pattern-based ontology design and knowledge engineering
  *      Pattern-based ontology evaluation and selection
  *      Ontology pattern extraction
  *      Pattern-based information extraction, ontology learning, and
    relation to NLP
  *      Patterns and Linked data (usage, emerging patterns,
    pattern-driven data publishing, etc.)
  *      Quality assurance for Linked Data vocabularies
  *      Web semantics from a pattern perspective
  *      Reasoning with, or using, patterns
  *      Contextual reasoning and patterns as context
  *      Pattern-based methods and methodologies for development of
    semantic applications
  *      Patterns for streaming data and evolving knowledge, as well as
    processes and services
  *      Patterns for Big Data integration, data lakes, conceptual
    modeling, ontology-based data access, and business intelligence
  *      Patterns in semantic social networks, semantic wikis, semantic
    blogs
  *      ODPs development and use in specific domains including
    geosciences, life sciences, digital humanities, cultural heritage,
    e-history, IoT, smart homes & cities, smart agriculture etc.


*Call for Patterns*:
We invite you to submit research results in the form of ontology design 
patterns (ODPs; 5-12 pages LNCS style), such as:

  *      Content patterns
  *      Structural patterns: logical and architecture patterns
  *      Correspondence patterns: re-engineering and alignment patterns
