*The annual SEMANTiCS conference*(formerly known as I-Semantics) is the
meeting place for professionals who make semantic computing work, and
understand its benefits and know its limitations. Every year, SEMANTiCS
attracts information managers, IT-architects, software engineers and
researchers from organisations ranging from NPOs, public administrations
to the largest companies in the world. Attendees learn from industry
experts and top researchers about emerging trends and topics in semantic
software, enterprise data, linked data & open data strategies and
methodologies in knowledge modeling and text & data analytics. The
SEMANTiCS community is highly diverse; attendees have responsibilities
interlinking areas like knowledge management, technical documentation,
e-commerce, big data analytics, enterprise search, document management,
business intelligence, and enterprise vocabulary management.
SEMANTiCS 2014 continues a long tradition of bringing together
colleagues from around the world to present best practices, panels,
papers and posters to discuss semantic systems in birds-of-a-feather
sessions and informal settings. SEMANTICS addresses problems common
among information managers, software engineers, IT-architects and
various specialist departments working to develop, implement and/or
evaluate semantic software systems.
The SEMANTiCS program is a rich mix of technical talks, panel
discussions of important topics, and presentations by people who make
things work - just like you. In addition, attendees can network with
experts in a variety of fields. These relationships provide great value
to organisations as they encounter subtle technical issues. The
expertise gained by SEMANTiCS attendees has a long-term impact on their
careers and organisations. These factors make SEMANTiCS the major
industry related event for our community.
*The following 'horizontals' (topics) and 'verticals' (industries) are
mainly addressed:*
*

Initial Situation
/What kind of challenge did you face in the beginning oft the project?
What problems were needed to be solved?/
*
Approach and IT-Solution
/Which approach and methodology has been chosen to tackle the
problem(s)? How is your solution composed with respect to technological
aspects / human aspects / organisational aspects? How do the semantic
components support the process from data to knowledge?/
*
Success Criteria for / Benefit of the Semantic Solution
/Which factors (conscious and unconscious) have been crucial to the
success of your project? Which obstacles did you face? How can you
measure the benefit of your solution? How does the organisation benefit
from your solution?/
*
Prospects and Recommendations
/What are the next steps planned in your project? Can you give
recommendations with respect to development / deployment of semantic
solutions within organisational / corporate settings?/
*
Demo
/Prepare a short demonstration of your tool / service./
In case your presentation will be accepted, we will provide you with
detailed information on organisational matters according to the
selection of submissions and conference participation (June 27, 2014).

*Your benefit*
Presenters will be granted access to the entire program of the SEMANTiCS
Conference (incl. all social events) at a reduced rate. Additionally,
presenters will have the possibility to discuss their contributions with
an interested audience and exchange ideas how semantic technologies can
