ONTOBRAS - MOST
5th Research Seminar of Ontologies in Brazil
7th International Workshop on Metamodels, Ontologies, Semantic Technologies (02)
September 17 - 19, 2012 - Recife/PE - Brasil
http://www.cin.ufpe.br/~ontobras-most2012/ (03)
Co-located event: 1st Workshop on Semantic Web and Amazonian
Biodiversity Ontology (04)
Ontology is a cross-disciplinary field concerning with the study of
concepts and theories that support the building of shared
conceptualizations of specific domains. In recent years, there has
been a growing interest in the application of ontologies to solve
modeling and classification problems in diverse areas such as Computer
Science, Information Science, Philosophy, Artificial Intelligence,
Linguistic, Knowledge Management and many others. (05)
The Ontology Research Seminar in Brazil foresees an opportunity and
scientific environment in which researchers and practitioners from
Information Sciences and Computer Science can exchange the theories,
methodologies, languages, tools and experience related to the ontology
development and application. (06)
In particular, this Fifth Edition of the Ontology Research Seminar is
being held simultaneously with the Seventh Edition of International
Workshop on Metamodels, Ontologies, Semantic Technologies and the
First Workshop on Semantic Web and Amazonian Biodiversity Ontology,
putting forward the effort of the research community in integrating
the previous events about Ontologies that has happened in Brazil in
recent years, in order to create a unique highly scientifically
qualified international forum for presenting and discussing the subject. (07)
Therefore, we provide a non-comprehensive list of areas and
researchers? communities from which we expect to receive submissions: (08)
- Information Science, for instance working with ontologies, thesauri,
knowledge management among other applications,
- Databases, for instance working with semantic data integration,
linked open data, among other applications,
- Artificial Intelligence, for instance working with knowledge based
systems, agents, ontology reasoning, among other applications
- Software Engineering, for instance working with conceptual modeling,
Business Process Models, among other applications,
- Informatics in Education, for instance working with Educational
Ontologies , Semantic Web-based Educational Standards, among other
applications,
- Linguistics and philosophy, working with natural language processing
using ontologies, theories of representation, among other applications. (09)
Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit theoretical,
technical and practical research contributions that directly or
indirectly address the issues above. Particularly welcome are
e-science, life-sciences, e-business and cultural applications. (010)
CALL FOR PAPERS (011)
We would like to invite you to participate in the 5th Research Seminar
of Ontologies in Brazil and International Workshop on Metamodels,
Ontologies, Semantic Technologies, which will be held this year in
Recife, PE, Brazil, on September 17-19. ONTOBRAS-MOST is the Brazilian
meeting for discussing Ontologies and this year will be sponsored by
Federal University of Pernambuco. We are interested in the various
aspects of the field, from its philosophical and theoretical
foundations to the new technologies and innovative applications. In
this edition, the meeting is opened to submissions in two categories: (012)
- Full papers (maximum 12 pages) written in English and describing
work with clear demonstrated results. Accepted full paper will be
invited for oral presentation. The best full papers will be invited to
be extended for publication in an influential international journal. (013)
- Short papers (maximum 6 pages) written in Portuguese, English, or
Spanish and describing ongoing work. Accepted short papers will be
invited for poster presentations. (014)
All submissions must be in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) and
must follow the Sociedade Brasileira de Computação (SBC) conference
format available at: http://www.sbc.org.br (015)
Electronic submission: https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/ontobras_most2012 (016)
The conference proceedings will be published in the online journal
CEUR-WS (http://www.ceur-ws.org). (017)
