The Journal of Web Semantics invites submissions for a special
issue on Visualization and Interaction for Ontologies and Linked
Data to be edited by Valentina Ivanova, Patrick Lambrix, Steffen
Lohmann and Catia Pesquita. Submissions are due by 31 January
2017. Topics of interest include the following.

• Visualizations and user interfaces for ontologies and linked
data (overview, exploration, analysis, visual analytics,
querying, etc.)
• Visualizations and user interfaces for ontology engineering
(ontology development, alignment, debugging, evolution,
provenance, collaboration, etc.)
• Case studies of applying visualizations in ontology engineering
and linked data consumption
• User evaluations of visual interfaces for linked data and
ontologies
• Analyses of different user types and needs
• Cognitive aspects of interaction and visualization
• Context-aware visualization and interaction techniques
• Applications of novel interaction techniques (e.g., touch and
gesture interaction)
• Mobile user interfaces for ontology engineering and linked data
exploration
