The focus of the 18th edition of EKAW will be on "Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management that matters". Besides a research track, EKAW will host a number of tutorials on topics related to the theme of the conference. Tutorials enable attendees to fully appreciate current issues, main schools of thought, and possible application areas. Tutorial notes will be published separately in a companion booklet.

In particular, we encourage the submission of tutorial proposals on: - Knowledge Management - Knowledge Engineering and Acquisition - Social and Cognitive Aspects of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning - User interaction, querying, and interfaces Additionally, tutorials could also include: practical parts in terms of examples or exercises to be carried out by the participants Proposers of accepted tutorials have to prepare a tutorial webpage containing detailed information about the tutorial. Submission Guidelines --------------------- Tutorial proposals should be submitted via EasyChair https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ekaw2012workshopandt as a single PDF file of no more than 5 pages, specifying “Tutorial Proposal”.
