Standards for Smart Applications (Call for Papers)

(Apologies for cross-posting, if you

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
