Special Session on Engineering Knowledge and Semantic Systems (IWEKSS)

The 23rd International Conference on Industrial, Engineering & Other Applications of Applied Intelligent Systems (IEA-AIE 2010)
June 1-4, 2010, Cordoba, Spain
http://www.iea-aie2010.org/

Scope of the Session

There have been many kinds of knowledge-based and ontology-based applications to support domain-specific knowledge modeling and the semantic dimension of information systems. Its emerging environment is characterised by intensive collaboration, cooperation and knowledge processing activities with formation of complex social and economical networks in the background. Various knowledge processing techniques are being used to address data portability and Web information discovery problems. More particularly, it is very important to investigate how to make the systems (e.g., networked organizations, organizational networks, and in distributed knowledge management) more practical. Modelling the dynamics and evolution of such complex systems, involving knowledge processing with intelligent information agents acting on behalf of thousands of users, is a new and promising research area with many practical applications.

The aim of this invited session is to bring together researchers and practitioners in areas of knowledge and intelligence, semantics, agents and grid computing to share their visions, research achievements and solutions, to resolve the challenge issues and to establish worldwide cooperative research and development. This will give an opportunity to push further the discussion upon the potential of knowledge and semantic systems across many communities.

Topics of interests

- Ontology mapping and merging
- Context and ontologies
- Semantic social networks
- Collaborative tagging on Web 2.0
- Semantic and knowledge grids
- Applications and case studies

Instructions for Authors

Authors are invited to electronically submit their paper, written in English, of up to 10 single spaced pages, presenting the results of original research or innovative practical applications relevant to the conference. Practical experiences with state-of-the-art AI methodologies are also acceptable when they reflect lessons of unique value to the conference attendees. Shorter works, up to 6 pages, to be presented in 10 minutes, may be submitted as SHORT PAPERS representing work in progress or suggesting possible research directions. Please submit only a pdf version of your paper which MUST BE in LNAI format available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. All paper should be submitted to Prof. Jason J. Jung (ontology.society@gmail.com).

Proceedings and Post Publications

Extended versions of selected papers may be published in a special issue of International Journals.
