Call for Papers 

1st International workshop on Web services & Semantic technology will
provide an excellent international forum for sharing knowledge and results
in theory, methodology and applications of web & semantic technology. The
growth of the World-Wide Web today is simply phenomenal. It continues to
grow rapidly and new technologies, applications are being developed to
support end users modern life. Semantic Technologies are designed to extend
the capabilities of information on the Web and enterprise databases to be
networked in meaningful ways. Semantic web is emerging as a core discipline
in the field of Computer Science & Engineering from distributed computing,
web engineering, databases, social networks, Multi media, information
systems, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, soft
computing, and human-computer interaction. The adoption of standards like
XML, Resource Description Framework and Web Ontology Language serve as
foundation technologies to advancing the adoption of semantic technologies.
The aim of the workshop is to provide a platform to the researchers and
practitioners from both academia as well as industry to meet and share
cutting-edge development in the field.
