KROW 2008 is one of two workshops forming an integral part of the  
program
of the 11th International Conference on Principles of Knowledge
Representation  and Reasoning (KR2008). It is a continuation of the
Australasian Ontology Workshop series:

http://www.comp.mq.edu.au/conferences/aow/.

The primary aim of the workshop is to bring together active  
researchers in
the broad area of ontologies. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:

- Ontology models and theories
- Ontologies and the Semantic Web
- Interoperability in ontologies
- Ontologies and Multi-agent systems
- Description logics for ontologies
- Reasoning with ontologies
- Ontology harvesting on the web
- Ontology of agents and actions
- Ontology visualisation
- Ontology engineering and management
- Ontology-based information extraction  and retrieval
- Ontology merging, alignment and integration
- Web ontology languages
- Formal concept analysis and ontologies

The proceedings of the three workshops in the AOW series were  
published as
volumes 58, 72, and 85 of the Conferences in Research and Practice in
Information Technology (CRPIT) series (http://crpit.com/), and this  
will also
be the case for the KROW 2008 proceedings. We also expect that extended
versions of selected papers will appear in a special issue of an  
appropriate journal.

Submission information such as format, page limits, etc. can be found  
on the
CRPIT website: http://crpit.com/AuthorsSubmitting.html.
