CFP: 10th International Workshop on Web Semantics (WebS 2011)
The 10th International Workshop on Web Semantics (WebS 2011) will be held in conjunction with 22nd International Workshop on Database and Expert Systems Applications DEXA), to be held on 29 August – 02 September 2011 in Toulouse, France.
From the email post:
The special topic “Reliability of ontologies” aims on detecting reusable ontologies and measuring the reliability of possible reusable ontology candidates. How can we measure the reliability and the usability of ontologies? Which adaptations of state-of-the-art ontology engineering methodologies are necessary to support modeling reusable ontologies? What measurements for defining and comparing ontologies can be used and how could ontology repositories use them? These are some of the open research questions to be addressed by papers dedicated to this year’s special topic.
Important dates:
- Paper submission: March 04, 2011
- Notification of acceptance: May 16, 2011
- Webs 2011 Workshop: 29 August – 02 September, 2011
Questions:
- What role could topic maps play in answering/exploring the questions for this workshop? (3-5 pages, citations)
- (if after the workshop) How would a topic map solution differ from the solution offered by the paper you have chosen from those presented? (3-5 pages, citations)
- (after the workshop, extra credit) Create a topic map of the program committee, the presenters, the affiliations of the presenters, with a visual display of the same.*
*I don’t know what you will find, if anything. It is something I have always been curious about but obviously not curious enough to do the analysis.
