Data Integration Through Semantic Technologies (DIST)

December 8, 2008 - December 11, 2008
AIT, Patum-Thani, Bangkok, Thailand

colocated with the 3rd Asian Semantic Web Conference.


3rd Asian Semantic Web Conference (ASWC2008)

December 8, 2008 - December 11, 2008
Pathumthani, Thailand

ASWC 2008 will present recent achievements in Semantic Web and Semantic Web technologies in Asia.


2nd Asian Semantic Web School (ASWS2008) (ASWS2008)

December 1, 2008 - December 6, 2008
Bangkok, Thailand

The Asian Semantic Web School aims to teach its attendees how to apply semantic technologies in their own projects and environments. The school is targeted at PhD students, young researchers and other interested parties affiliated to academia or industry. It is particularly our goal to bring together international experts in the field and to invite the leading research groups in Asia to be part of the program.
Presentations by renowned experts in the field will introduce the core technologies of the Semantic Web:
* Standard knowledge representation languages such as Resource Description Framework (RDF) or Web Ontology Language (OWL), including tools for exploiting their reasoning capabilities.
* Principles, methods and tools to build and manage ontologies and model domain knowledge.
* Methods and techniques for machine learning on the Semantic Web.
* The current directions in Semantic Web Services, in particular the Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO) and the related Web Service Modeling Language (WSML) and Web Service Execution Environment (WSMX).


2nd Non Functional Properties and Service Level Agreements in Service (NFPSLA-SOC'08)

November 12, 2008 - November 12, 2008
Dublin, Ireland

The workshop aims to tackle the research problems around methods, concepts, models, languages and technology that enable management of non-functional properties and Service Level Agreements in the context of Service Oriented Computing. This proposed workshop aims to bring together researchers and industry attendees addressing these issues, to promote and foster a greater understanding of how the management of NFP, QoS and SLAs can assist business to business and enterprise application integration.


International Workshop on Semantic Extensions to Middleware: Enabling Large Scale Knowledge Applicat (SEMELS'08 (OTM))

November 9, 2008 - November 14, 2008
Monterrey, Mexico

This workshop addresses the need to extend existing middleware layers with semantic technologies to support future knowledge-centred information systems and their Web-based collaboration with other systems, abstracted from data and process models. Such semantically extended middleware can be applied in any context which involves large scale knowledge-based collaboration, such as in the biomedical and life sciences field or emergency planning, as well as facilitate new forms of intelligent Web-scale coordination of processes (a step towards the Service Web) which are currently not envisioned precisely because such a semantically-capable middleware layer is not existent.
The workshop is hosted at the
OnTheMove (OTM) Federated Conferences and Workshops and supported by the EC STREP
TripCom.


1st Workshop on Incentives for the Semantic Web (INSEMTIVE 2008)

October 27, 2008 - October 27, 2008
Karlsruhe, Germany

One of the reasons for this state of affairs, almost seven years after the publication of the seminal article on the Semantic Web, has been always considered to be the lack of high quality semantic content. A critical mass of semantically annotated Web pages, semantically enhanced multimedia repositories, as well as business relevant, widely accepted ontologies would provide a feasible basis for the development of semantic applications of immediate added value for it users, and for the adoption of semantic technologies at industrial level. Despite a mature set of techniques, tools, and methods for authoring semantic content, one can observe very limited user involvement. The lack of semantic content and the missing engagement of users can be traced back to the missing incentive models incorporatd by semantic technology. This is very contrary to the Web 2.0 movement which lives great popularity and a huge amount of user contributions. Even though, there are also many failing Web 2.0 tools, applications like Wikipedia, Del.icio.us, Flickr, YouTube, Facebook or LinkedIn generate enormous user interest and massive amounts of data. Each of those applications implements an incentive that motivates people to contribute their time and human intelligence.


Service Matchmaking and Resource Retrieval in the Semantic Web (SMR2 2008)

October 27, 2008 - October 27, 2008
Karlsruhe, Germany

Co-located with the 7th International Semantic Web Conference Karlsruhe, Germany
The SMR2 workshop provides a forum for promoting, presenting, and discussing the latest scientific advances on semantic Web service and resource retrieval; and Establishing and fostering cross-disciplinary relations between relevant parties in research and/or business for the purpose of joint work on solutions to relevant problems in the domain.


7th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2008) (ISWC2008)

October 26, 2008 - October 30, 2008
Karlsruhe, Germany

ISWC is a major international forum where visionary and state-of-the-art research of all aspects of the Semantic Web are presented.


Future Internet Symposium 2008 (FIS2008)

September 28, 2008 - September 30, 2008
Vienna, Austria

The program of the First Future Internet Symposium will be international in scope, and focused on research. It will host original research papers, workshops, invited talks from leading academic and industrial researchers, panel sessions and tutorials. The symposium will be highly interdisciplinary, open to all scientific areas, with an emphasis on the technologies driving the development of Web 3.0: semantics and services.


2nd European Semantic Technology Conference (ESTC2008)

September 24, 2008 - September 26, 2008
Vienna, Austria

The European Semantic Technology Conference is the only European conference that brings together an international community of practitioners working to apply semantic technology in diverse media and leverage the technology in the commercial environment. ESTC gathers the world's leading thinkers, innovators, developers, engineers and senior practitioners within organizations responsible for information technology and systems in one place to learn about how to integrate this unparalleled technology into their operations.
