About OWLED Like its predecessors, the fifth workshop in the OWLED workshop series aims at bringing users,
implementors and researchers together in order to measure the current state of need against the
state of the art, to share experience applying OWL in applications, and to set an agenda for
language evolutions that satisfy users. With the specification of OWL 2 well in progress,
the workshop will be an excellent opportunity to learn about, discuss and debate new
developments in the language, and to give feedback to the working group. OWLED is the best forum for meeting people who have experience using OWL. Many of the designers
and leading researchers that participated in the development of OWL are in attendance and the
workshop is characterized by it's the friendly sharing of knowledge and its interactive nature. Thanks to the efforts of program chairs Uli Sattler and Catherine Dolbear, and the excellent submissions. We are looking at a stimulating program this year, including a great crop of presentations and several interactive sessions.
A quick overview below lists the long papers accepted for oral presentation. The web site contains
This year OWLED is sponsored by Clark & Parsia, IBM Research, Science Commons, and Openlink
Software. Thanks to their generosity we will be able to provide some amount of funding support
for students who need it.
Hope to see you there! Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.
