Call for Research papers<br>2. Call for In-Use papers<br>3. Call for Resource papers<br><br>1. Call for Research papers<br>*******************************************<br>In
this track of ISWC 2021, we are looking for novel and significant
research contributions addressing theoretical, analytical and empirical
aspects of the Semantic Web. While we welcome work that relates to the
W3C Semantic Web recommendations (e.g., RDF, OWL, SPARQL, etc.), we also
encourage contributions to research at the intersection of the Semantic
Web and other scientific disciplines. Submissions to the research track
should describe original, significant, and replicable research on the
Semantic Web. All papers must include method evaluations that are
rigorous, repeatable and reproducible. This will be one of the key
reviewing criteria. We also strongly encourage papers that provide links
to the data sets, source code and queries used to evaluate their
approach, and/or live deployments.<br><br>Topics of interest and further details: <a href="https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/research-track" target="_blank">https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/research-track</a><br><br>Track Chairs:<br>- Eva Blomqvist (University of Linköping, Sweden)<br>- Andreas Hotho (University of Würzburg, Germany)<br><br>Contact: <a href="mailto:iswc2021-program@easychair.org" target="_blank">iswc2021-program@easychair.org</a><br><br>2. Call for In-Use papers<br>*******************************************<br>The
In-Use track at ISWC 2021 continues the tradition of demonstrating and
sharing the increasing adoption of Semantic Web technologies by
providing a forum for the community to explore the benefits and
challenges of applying such technologies in concrete, practical use
cases, beyond the research communities from which they originate, in
contexts ranging from industry to government and society. The In-Use
track thus seeks submissions describing applied and validated solutions
such as software tools, systems or architectures that benefit from the
use of Semantic Web technologies (including, but not limited to,
technologies based on the Semantic Web standards).<br><br>Topics of interest and further details: <a href="https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/in-use-call" target="_blank">https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/in-use-call</a><br><br>Track Chairs:<br>- Ying Ding (University of Texas at Austin, USA)<br>- Payam Barnaghi (Imperial College London, UK)<br><br>Contact: <a href="mailto:iswc2021-in-use@easychair.org" target="_blank">iswc2021-in-use@easychair.org</a><br><br>3. Call for Resource papers<br>*******************************************<br>The
ISWC 2021 Resources Track aims to promote the sharing of resources
which support, enable or utilise semantic web research. Resources
include, but not restricted to: datasets, ontologies/vocabularies,
ontology design patterns, evaluation benchmarks or methods, software
tools/services, APIs and software frameworks, workflows, crowdsourcing
task designs, protocols, methodologies and metrics, that have
contributed or may contribute to the generation of novel scientific
work. In particular, we encourage the sharing of such resources
following best and well-established practices within the Semantic Web
community. As such, this track calls for contributions that provide a
concise and clear description of a resource and its usage. <br><br>Topics of interest and further details: <a href="https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/resources-track" target="_blank">https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/resources-track</a><br><br>Track Chairs:<br>- Stefan Dietze (GESIS, Cologne & Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf, Germany)_<br>- Achille Fokoue (IBM Research, Yorktown Heights, NY, USA)<br></div><div><br></div><div><br>***** Important Dates (common to all tracks) *****<br>- Abstracts Due: 12 April 2021<br>- Full Papers Due: 19 April 2021<br>- Author Rebuttals: 2–6 June 2021<br>- Notifications: 23 June 2021<br><br>*** All deadlines are AoE (Anywhere on Earth) ***<br></div><div><br></div><div><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Follow ISWC on social media:</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">- Twitter: @iswc_conf #iswc_conf (</span><a href="https://twitter.com/iswc_conf" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">https://twitter.com/iswc_conf</span></a><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">)</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">- LinkedIn: </span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/groups/13612370" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">https://www.linkedin.com/groups/13612370</span></a></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">- Facebook: </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ISWConf" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">https://www.facebook.com/ISWConf</span></a></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><br></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">The ISWC 2021 Organising Team </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><a href="https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/organizing-committee" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">https://iswc2021.semanticweb.org/organizing-committee</span></a></p></div></div></div></div>
