5th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2006)
ISWC is a major international forum where visionary and state-of-the-art research of all aspects of the Semantic Web are presented. ISWC2006 follows the 1st International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2002 which was held in Sardinia, Italy, 9-12 June 2002), the 2nd International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2003 which was held in Florida, USA, 20 - 23 October 2003), 3rd International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2004 which was held in Hiroshima, Japan, 7 - 11 November 2004), and 4th International Semantic Web Conference 2005 (ISWC'05 which was held in Galway, Ireland, 6 - 10 November, 2005). Venue Athens, GA, USA Date November 5-9, 2006
First International Workshop on Anthologizing Industrial Standards (OIS 2006)
A major bottleneck towards business applications of Semantic Web technology and machine reasoning is the lack of industry-strength ontologies that go beyond academic prototypes. The design of such ontologies from scratch in a textbook-style ontology engineering process is in many cases unattractive, for it would require significant effort, and because the resulting ontologies could not build on top of existing community commitment. Also, real-world problems of data and systems interoperability can only be overcome using Semantic Web technology if ontologies exist that represent the very standards currently in use in systems and databases.
International Conference on Semantics - Semantics 2006 (Semantics 2006)
Semantics 2006 is the first concentrated event in Europe focussing on applied aspects of semantic technologies. The event addresses researchers to contribute new research ideas, interesting applications, industrial adoption scenarios and visions in the Semantic Web domain.
Besides the impact on the research community, Semantics 2006 aims to bring together researchers with industry representatives like Chief Level Executives, Project Managers, Software Vendors and Investors.
Semantics 2006 is a sequel of the Semantics 2005, which took place from 23rd – 25th of November 2005 at the Tech Gate Vienna and attracted 250 visitors. The annual event is organized by a consortium, consisting of the Austrian Computer Society, Digital Enterprise Research Institute, NIWA websolutions, profactor Steyr, Salzburg New Media Lab and the Semantic Web School.
International Workshop on Service Composition (sercomp'06)
Composition of services in dynamic environments has received much interest for its potential to support Business-to-Business (B2B) or Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). One of such dynamic environments is the World Wide Web, which makes available a huge and rapidly growing number of heterogeneous services. Recent efforts to develop ontology languages for the Web and ways of describing web services semantically in this environment have resulted in a number of prototype systems that can dynamically combine services and interact with them.
4th European Semantic Web Conference (ESWC 2007)
4th European Semantic Web Conference will present the latest results in the research and application in Semantic Web technologies including: Semantic Web Services, Ontology Management, Multimedia and Semantic Web, Semantic Web Mining, Logics for the Semantic Web and many more.
ESWC 2007 welcomes the submission of original research and application papers, particularly those on industrial efforts and experiences with Semantic Web projects, theoretical, methodological, empirical, and applications papers.
10th International Conference on Electronic Commerce (ICEC 2008)
The International Conference on Electronic Commerce brings together the top of the scientific research community in e-commerce and e-business from all over the world. The theme of this conference is Semantic technology moving toward interoperability.
9th International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing (Ubicomp07)
The annual UbiComp conference provides the premier forum in which to present research results in all areas relating to the design, implementation, application and evaluation of ubiquitous computing technologies, bringing together leading researchers from a variety of disciplines and geographical areas who are exploring the frontiers of computing as it moves beyond the desktop and becomes increasingly interwoven into the fabrics of our lives.
