ISWC 2015 - 14th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2015)

ISWC is the premier venue for presenting innovative systems, applications and research results related to the combination of semantics, data and the Web. We solicit the submission of original research papers for ISWC 2015's research track, dealing with analytical, theoretical, empirical, and practical aspects of all these areas (including not only the ones that use the RDF-based stack but also those that use other representations). Submissions to the research track should describe original and significant research in any of these areas.
To maintain the high level of quality and impact of the ISWC series, all papers will be reviewed by at least three program committee members and one senior program committee member. To assess papers, reviewers will judge their originality and significance for further advances in any of these areas, as well as the technical soundness of the proposed approaches and the overall readability of the submitted papers. We also encourage authors to include pointers to any additional material that supports the scientific claims made in their papers (e.g., extended technical reports, source code, datasets, links to applications).
Authors should also read carefully the calls for the other tracks, and consider submitting to the most appropriate track. In the interest of a coherent program the track chairs may suggest moving a submission to a different track of the conference, with authors consent. However, multiple submissions of the same paper to different tracks are not acceptable.
