Dear Colleagues,

you are invited to submit your papers to the 8th International Workshop on Web Semantics (part of the 20th International Workshop
on Database and Expert Systems Applications DEXA), to be held on 31 August - 04 September 2009 in Linz, Austria.

The objective of the workshop Web Semantics (WebS) is to bring together researchers, developers and practitioners to discuss
research issues and experience in developing and deploying Semantic Web concepts, applications, and solutions being an
international forum for the presentation of both theoretical and applicative results. Papers describing Semantic Web application
experiences are particularly encouraged.


TOPICS:
=======
The relevant topics include the following (but are not limited to):

* Knowledge management and sharing
* Modeling of Semantic Web
* Ontology modeling, reuse, extraction, and evolution
* Semantic and context awareness
* Interoperability and data integration through semantic technology
* Search, integration, and analysis on the Semantic Web
* Ontology mapping, merging, and alignment
* Semantic Web data querying and reasoning
* Document analysis and semantic extraction
* Semantic Web supporting business processes
* Semantic Web for e-sciences
* Semantic Web for e-business
* Semantic Web mining
* Semantic Web inferences schemes
* Semantic Web applications
- Database technologies for the Semantic Web
- Intelligent user interfaces
- Dynamic ontology generation and adaptation
- Languages, tools and methodologies for semantic annotations of web data
- Applications on mobile devices
- Enhanced accessibility and multimodal interfaces
- Reasoning

* Special track: Ontologies in Biomedicine
- Ontologies for genetics, proteomics, diseases, privacy etc.
- Conceptual models for biological and medical data
- Semantics in Biological Data Modeling
- Use of semantics to manage Interoperation in Biomedical Databases
- Semantic Web technologies and formalisms for Biomedical Data
- Ontology representation and exchange languages for Bioinformatics
- Support of Ontologies for Biological Information Retrieval and Web Services
- Change Management in Biomedical Ontologies
- Tools for Development and Management of Biomedical Ontologies


PAPER SUBMISSION DETAILS:
