JIST 2013 - The Joint International Semantic Technology Conference (JIST)

The Joint International Semantic Technology Conference (JIST) is a regional federation of Semantic Technology related conferences. The mission of JIST is to bring together researchers from the semantic technology research community and other related areas to present their innovative research results or novel applications of semantic technologies.
JIST 2013 invites submissions of original research on the semantic web and other semantic technologies, as well as, applications of semantic technologies.

Special Track Papers
The JIST 2013 will announce CFP for special tracks separately.
Submission
Submissions to JIST 2013 should describe original and significant research based on semantic technologies and provide clear evidence to support their claims and contributions. All submissions will be critically reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. Reviewers will assess submissions based on their relevance to semantic technologies, their originality, the technical soundness of their proposed approach, and the readability of the submission.
Submissions must be in PDF format, using the style of the Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
Submissions must be no longer than 16 pages for REGULAR TECHNICAL SESSIONS and 6 pages for IN-USE TRACK.
Submissions that exceed this limit may be rejected without review.
JIST 2013 will not accept submissions that are under review by, already been published in. or accepted for publication in a journal or other conference.
Accepted papers will be distributed to conference attendees and published in the printed conference proceedings. The proceedings will be published as a book in Lecture Note for Computer Science (LNCS) by Springer.
All submissons should be submitted via EasyChair at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jist20...
At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper in person.
