Standards for Smart Applications (2nd Call for Papers)

(Apologies for cross-posting, if you
receive multiple copies of this message) 

Standards for Smart Applications (S4SA) is an ECAI 2012 workshop on
knowledge representation standards and integrating knowledge
sources, with a focus on bridging across heterogeneous standards, as
a way to avoid the creation of "knowledge representation silos".

----------------------------------------------------

The objective of this workshop is to promote research and education on
the combination and integration of knowledge representation standards.

Here, knowledge representation standards are meant in a broad sense, not
limited to what is traditionally seen as knowledge representation in the
Artificial Intelligence and semantic technology communities: this workshop
will consider integration and bridges between OWL, RIF, RuleML and other
“traditional” knowledge representation standards, but also with and between
BPMN, SBVR, XBRL, fact-based modelling standards such as ORM, XML-based
and non-XML industry standards such as MISMO, HL7, X9, ACORD and many more.

The workshop will gather researchers and practitioners interested in knowledge
representation standards and in the standard-based integration of multiple
knowledge representations for the development of smarter applications and
for the broader adoption of knowledge-based technology.

Papers and contributions are invited on all the theoretical, technical
and practical aspects of combining multiple knowledge representation standards,
such as, but not limited to: 

- Semantics for combinations of knowledge representation standards

- Technology that combines multiple standard knowledge representations

- Mapping and translation between standards 

- Extending VS combining standards 

- Requirements on new standards and extensions of existing standards to
improve inter-operability of diverse knowledge representation paradigms

- Experience with standard-based integration of multiple knowledge representations

- New, emerging and proposed knowledge representation standards (and how
they fit in the bigger picture) 

- Use cases and requirements with standard-based integration of multiple
knowledge representations 

- Performance and scalability issues related to standard-based integration
of multiple knowledge representations
