Call for Doctoral Consortium (DC) Papers

This DC forum provides PhD students an opportunity to:

   -

   present and discuss their research ideas in a supportive, formative and
   yet critical environment;
   -

   receive feedback from mentors, typically senior members of the Semantic
   Web research community, and peers;
   -

   and network and build collaborations with other members of the community.

We will soon publish student travel grant applications, and students with
accepted doctoral consortium papers will have priority.

Important Dates:

DC paper submission due June 3, 2025

Notifications July 8, 2025

Camera ready papers due July 31, 2025

Call for Journal Sessions Proposals

ISWC 2025 is iterating on the historical Journal Track. This year, we are
soliciting a call for (journal track) sessions. These sessions will be held
during the main track of the conference. We want to facilitate
cross-pollination between sub-communities, as well as overall strengthen
the ties and pipelines between ISWC and the journals that serve our
community.

Important Dates:

Journal Track Session Proposals Due June 30, 2025

Notifications                         July 17, 2025

=========================

Call for Dagstuhl-style workshop proposals

Inspired by the Special Session at ISWC 2024 and the Dagstuhl Seminar
model, these workshops are designed to encourage in-depth discussions on
challenges or emerging topics within a half-day or full-day event format.
The goal is to create a collaborative and open environment for
brainstorming and exploring new directions, similar to the spirit of
Dagstuhl Seminars. These workshops will prioritize dynamic discussions and
the presentation of fresh ideas and ongoing research, rather than requiring
participants to submit papers or give formal presentations.

Important Dates:

Submission due             July 1, 2025

Notifications July 11, 2025

Workshop website online July 25, 2025

Workshop days                       Nov 2-3, 2025

Workshop Chairs:

Blerina Spahiu - University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy

Juan Sequeda - data.world, USA

=========================

Call for  Industry papers

Have you employed knowledge graphs, semantic technologies, and Large
Language Models (LLMs) to adopt semantics in innovative industrial
applications?

The Industry Track at ISWC 2025 welcomes extended abstracts about the
application of knowledge graphs and semantic technologies in various
industrial sectors, aiming to showcase the state of their adoption and the
latest trends. It provides an opportunity for industry adopters to
highlight and share the key learnings and new research challenges posed by
real-world implementations.

Important Dates:

Submission due             July 1, 2025

Notifications July 29, 2025

Camera ready papers due Seb 11, 2025

Application for SWSA Distinguished Dissertation Award

The Semantic Web Science Association (SWSA) invites applications for the
2025 SWSA Distinguished Dissertation Award. The award will be presented
during the International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC), taking place in
Nara, Japan on November 2-6, 2025.

Eligible doctoral dissertations are those which present innovative research
results related to the combination of semantics, data and the Web, which
have been awarded a PhD strictly between January 01, 2024 and June 30,
2025, and which have not previously been nominated for this award. The
selection of the dissertation will be based on the originality,
significance, and impact of the work. Evidence of such impact includes (but
is not limited to) publications at highly selective conferences and
journals in the field.

The award committee, which will comprise two members of SWSA and a number
of external experts, will be the final arbiter in the decision process. The
award committee may decide to consult additional external assessors and
reserves the right to not award the prize if the applications do not meet
the expected quality level.

The award includes a certificate and a 1000 euros payment. A free
registration to ISWC 2025 will also be covered. In addition, IOS Press will
invite the winner to publish the dissertation as a book in the "Studies on
the Semantic Web" series.

Important Dates:

Submission due             July 4, 2025
