Call For Papers

Dear Colleagues,

you are invited to submit your papers to the 12th International Workshop on Web Semantics and Web
Intelligence (part of the 24th International Workshop on Database and Expert Systems Applications
DEXA), to be held on August 26-30, 2013, Prague, Czech Republic.

The objective of the international workshop Web Semantics and Web Intelligence (WebS) is to bring
together researchers, developers and practitioners to discuss research issues and experiences in
developing and deploying Semantic Web concepts, applications, and solutions by establishing an
international forum for the presentation of both theoretical and applicative results.

This year's WebS builds on this tradition of facilitating cross-disciplinary exchange of ideas,
experience and potential research directions. WebS 2013 seeks to introduce innovative methods,
algorithms, and solutions to challenging problems in Semantic Web and Web Intelligence research
and development initiatives.

Submissions presenting current research work on both theoretical and practical aspects of Semantic
Web application experiences in Web Intelligence are encouraged. Particularly, we strongly welcome
submissions dealing with Information Extraction and Linked Open Data.

* Sentiment and opinion analysis
* Analysis of user-generated context
* Text summarization, topic identification, metadata extraction
* Querying and searching Semantic Web data (combinations with statistics, natural language, ...)
* Semantic Web content creation, annotation and extraction

Semantic Web and Knowledge Management
* Knowledge management and sharing
* Text mining on the web, Semantic Web mining in general

PAPER SUBMISSION DETAILS:
=========================
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research and application papers that are not
being considered in another forum.
Manuscripts will be limited to 5 two-column pages (IEEE Proceeding style) including figures and
references. Please follow the Conference Publishing Services (CPS) Author Guidelines to prepare
your papers. Authors of accepted papers are requested to sign the IEEE copyright form. The author
guidelines can be found at Conference Publishing Services (CPS).

Electronic submission of manuscripts (in PDF, postscript, or word format) is required and will be
handled via the workshop Web site http://www.faw.jku.at/wwoess/webs/webs.html. For any questions
please contact webs@faw.uni-linz.ac.at.

At least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the conference and present the
paper. Papers accepted for presentation will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press as
proceedings of the DEXA 2013 workshops.
Authors are requested to send their paper(s) to be received by March 15, 2013 (final deadline!)


EVALUATION PROCESS:
===================
All submissions will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and technical soundness.
Each paper will be refereed by at least three researchers in the topical area.


IMPORTANT DATES:
================
Paper submission: March 15, 2013 (final deadline!)
Notification of acceptance: May 05, 2013
WebS 2013 Workshop (may be changed): August 27, 2013
