> Ontologies and Linked Data vocabularies are being actively
> developed and used by numerous applications. Several domains are
> making their vocabularies available for others to reuse. In
> addition, good practices when developing ontologies are often
> followed, particularly for producing reusable modules. The Semantic
> Web is a modular and highly federated environment of reusable
> knowledge sources; these provide the meaning so that SW applications
> change our experience of the web. Within this context, the need for
> repositories delivering the added value that makes the SW a concrete
> step beyond our current experience of the web is palpable. SERES
> addresses issues around semantic repositories within the context of
> the SW.
>

>
> The number of ontologies being built and made available for reuse
> has increased steadily in the last few years. Semantic Web search
> engines such as Swoogle and Watson currently index several tens of
> thousands of them; there are also systems specifically designed to
> support the publication of ontologies, e.g. Cupboard, NCBO
> Bioportal, and ONKI. Some tools also support editing features, e.g.
> Neologism, Knoodl. While being a foundation for the Semantic Web,
> this new environment where ontologies are shared and interlinked
> online also poses new challenges; fostering thus a number of
> research projects aiming to understand, amongst others, ontology
> reuse, storage, publication, versioning, quality control,
> evaluation, retrieval and modularization. For instance, as part of
> the EU NeOn project new tools supporting Knowledge Engineering in
> the age of ?networked ontologies? have been developed, while in the
> EU OASIS project approaches from software engineering and
> formalization are now also being applied to inter-connect
> ontologies. Moreover, despite initial efforts, ontology repositories
> are hardly interoperable amongst themselves. Although sharing
> similar aims (providing easy access to Semantic Web resources), they
> diverge in the methods and techniques employed for gathering these
> documents and making them available; each interprets and uses
> metadata in a different manner. Furthermore, many features are still
> poorly supported; for instance, modularization, versioning, and the
> relationship between ontology repositories and ontology engineering
> environments (editors) to support the entire ontology lifecycle.
>

>
> By the same token, there are several domains making available
> knowledge resources; for instance, digital libraries such as Pubmed
> Central offer a large collection of biomedical abstracts and, in
> some cases, open access to the full document. Some researchers are
> starting to bridge the gap between clinical and experimental data
> and literature; such connection is being built via ontologies, some
> approaches have had BioPortal as their ontology repository. Linked
> Data is also being explored as a means for publishers to expose
> their content. Knowledge management over documents is actively
> aiming to make real the notion of self-descriptiveness; being this
> intrinsically related to various resources over the web providing
> meaning for atomic component in documents ?words, tables, figures,
> maps, etc. In order for these systems to be successful, it is
> necessary to provide a forum for researchers and developers to
> discuss features and exchange ideas on the realization of
> repositories providing semantics. In addition, it is now critical to
> achieve interoperability between these repositories, through common
> interfaces, standard metadata formats, etc. SERES10 intends to
> provide such a forum.

> Questions addressed by SERES10:
>
> · How can semantic repositories support the
> realization of the SW?
>
> · Semantic repositories, ontology repositories,
> knowledge repositories, where are the boundaries? How are they
> interacting? Are they changing our experience of the web?
>
> · How are domain specific knowledge repositories,
> such as biomedical digital libraries, interconnecting knowledge in
> meaningful manners?
>
> · How are e-government initiatives using and
> delivering semantics and knowledge repositories?
>
> · How can ontology repositories support novel
> semantic applications?
>
> · How can ontology repositories encourage the
> development of high quality ontologies that are used routinely by
> relevant communities?
>
> · How can ontology repositories provide semantics
> for applications?
>
> · How can ontology repositories contribute to the
> reuse of ontologies across different domains and applications?
>
> · How can ontology repositories interoperate with
> one another to support scalability, availability and distributed
> reasoning?
>
> · How can provenance and intellectual property
> information be managed in and across ontology repositories?
>
> · How can the abundant and complex knowledge
> contained in relevant ontology repositories be made comprehensible
> for users?
>
> · How can branching, versioning, mappings,
> dependencies and configurations/compositions be managed in and
> across ontology repositories?
>
> · How can ontology repositories interoperate with
> related applications such as ontology editors, automated reasoners,
> and rule engines?
>
> · How can modularity be better supported in and
> across ontology repositories; similarly, how could modularization be
> formalized?
>
> · How can ontology repositories support distributed
> reasoning?
>
> · How can ontology repositories support corporate,
> national and domain specific metadata/semantic infrastructures?
>
> · What measurements for describing and comparing
> ontologies can we use? How could ontology repositories use these?

> Workshop Audience
>
> We want to bring together researchers and practitioners active in
> the design, development and application of semantic web technology,
> semantic registries and repositories, knowledge management systems,
> knowledge repositories, repository editors, modularization
> techniques, versioning systems and issues around federated ontology
> systems. As some repository-related tools are already under
> development, and repositories are a crucial part of business
> infrastructure, we also address progressive Chief Technology
> Officers interested in using these technologies.
