SePublica2012 an ESWC2012 Workshop.  May 27-31, Heraklion, Greece. 
	At
 Sepublica we want to explore the future of scholarly communication and 
scientific publishing. As we are going through a transition between 
print media and Web media, Sepublica aims to provide researchers with a 
venue in which this future can be shaped. Consider
 research publications: Data sets and code are essential elements of 
data intensive research, but these are absent when the research
 is recorded and preserved by way of a scholarly journal article. Or 
consider news reports: Governments increasingly make public sector 
information available on the Web, and reporters use it, but news reports
 very rarely contain fine-grained links to such data sources.  At 
Sepublica we will discuss and present new ways of publishing, sharing, 
linking, and analyzing such scientific resources as well as reasoning 
over the data to discover new links  and scientific insights. 
 
   
	Workshop Format 
	We
 are planning to have a full day workshop with two main sessions. During
 the first part of the workshop accepted papers will be presented; the 
second part of the workshop will address by means of focus groups two 
main questions, namely “what do we want the future of scholarly 
communication to be?”  and “how could data be preserved and delivered in
 an interactive manner over scholarly communications?”. These focus 
groups will be followed by a panel discussion. As an outcome of these 
activities we will have a communique that will be the editorial for the 
workshop proceedings,

	Issues to be addressed 
- 
		Representation:
- 
				Formal representations of scientific data; ontologies for scientific information
 
- 
				What ontologies do we need for representing structural elements in a document?
 
- 
				How
 can we capture the semantics of rhetorical structures in scholarly 
communication, and of  hypotheses and scientific evidence?
 - 
				Integration of quantitative and qualitative scientific information
 
- 
				How
 could RDF(a) and ontologies be used to represent the knowledge encoded 
in scientific documents and in general-interest media publications?
 - 
				Connecting scientific publications with underlying research data sets
 
 
  
- 
		Technological Foundations:
- 
				Ontology-based visualization of scientific data
 
 
  
- 
- 
				Provenance, quality, privacy and trust of scientific information
 
- 
				Linked
 Data for dissemination and archiving of research results, for 
collaboration and research networks, and for research assessment
  
  
- 
- 
				How could we realize a paper with an API?  How could we have a paper as a database, as a knowledge base?
 
- 
				How is the paper an interface, gateway, to the web of data? How could such and interface be delivered in a contextual manner?
 
 
  
- 
		Applications and Use Cases:
- 
				Case
 studies on linked science, i.e., astronomy, biology, environmental and 
socio-economic impacts of global warming, statistics, environmental 
monitoring, cultural heritage, etc.
 - 
				Barriers to the acceptance of linked science solutions and strategies to address these
 
- 
				Legal, ethical and economic aspects of Linked Data in science
