[DL] [CfP] 14th Workshop on Ontology Design and Patterns (WOP 2023) at ISWC 2023

[Gunjan Singh]

Dear All,

TL;DR
************************

This is the first call for participation for the 14th Workshop on Ontology
Design and Patterns
<https://odpa.github.io/workshop-on-ontology-design-and-patterns/2023/index.html>
(WOP
2023), co-located with the 22nd International Semantic Web Conference
<https://iswc2023.semanticweb.org/> (ISWC 2023).


The WOP workshop series covers issues related to quality in ontology design
and ontology design patterns (ODPs) for data and knowledge engineering in
Semantic Web. The workshop’s aim is to:

1) provide an arena for discussing patterns, pattern-based ontologies,
systems, datasets, and
2) broaden the pattern community by developing its own "discourse" for
discussing and describing relevant problems and their solutions.


*Submission deadline (papers and patterns): July 24, 2023, 23:59 (AOE)*

Further details are on the website:

Longer version

*************************
The WOP workshop series covers issues related to quality in ontology design
and ontology design patterns (ODPs) for data and knowledge engineering in
Semantic Web. The increased attention to ODPs in recent years through their
interaction with emerging trends of the Semantic Web, such as knowledge
graphs, can be attributed to their benefit for knowledge engineers and
Semantic Web developers. Such benefits come in the form of a direct link to
requirements, reuse, guidance, and better communication. The workshop’s aim
is thus not just: 1) providing an arena for discussing patterns,
pattern-based ontologies, systems, and datasets but also 2) broadening the
pattern community by developing its own "discourse" for discussing and
describing relevant problems and their solutions.
*Call for Papers and Patterns*We invite the submission of original research
results related to the focus areas of the workshop in one of three
categories:

   1. Research papers (maximum 12 pages CEUR style) presenting mature work
   and established results.
   2. Short papers (maximum 6 pages CEUR style) presenting proposed
   research directions, novel ideas, or more general positions or discussions.
   3. Ontology Design Patterns (described in paper format, 5-12 pages CEUR
   style) should solve a particular modeling problem of relevance either to
   the broader ontology engineering community or to some specific knowledge
   domain in a novel and reusable manner. These must additionally be submitted
   through the ODP community portal. Note that accepted pattern submissions
   are presented through a poster session (see below).

*Topics of Interest*

We particularly welcome contributions on topics concerning the development
of high-quality ontologies in general (with or without the help of ODPs),
as well as studies and applications of ODPs for knowledge graph
construction and maintenance. In addition, as usual, we also welcome
pattern descriptions of all sorts, including patterns geared towards
applications in specific domains such as geosciences, life sciences,
sustainability, digital humanities, or e-commerce. The main topics of
interest are as follows.

   1. Use of ontology design patterns for any kind of knowledge
   engineering, including
      - Pattern-based ontology design, conceptual modeling, or knowledge
      engineering broadly
      - Pattern Use in knowledge graphs or linked data settings (including
      pattern-driven linking or data publishing)
      - Pattern-based information extraction, ontology learning, and
      relation to NLP
      - Pattern use in streaming, ingesting, or evolving knowledge
      - Use of patterns for ontology evaluation, quality assurance,
      ontology selection, integration, or alignment
      - Pattern-based development of semantic applications
      - Reasoning with patterns (including automated reasoning,
      verification, or contextual reasoning)
   2. Methods and tools for developing high-quality ontologies (with or
   without the help of patterns), including
      - Ontology engineering by domain experts
      - Quality attributes or metrics in ontologies and ontology engineering
      - Quality assurance approaches for ontology engineering
   3. Development or analysis of ontology design patterns, including
      - Pattern extraction
      - Analyses of ontology design patterns or their uses
      - Antipatterns and their relation to ODPs
   4. Development and use of patterns in specific domains, including
      - Data lakes, business intelligence, or Big Data integration
      - Geosciences, life sciences, engineering, digital humanities,
      cultural preservation
      - IoT, smart homes & cities, smart agriculture
      - Semantic technology, including social networks, semantic wikis, and
      blogs

*Submission Instructions*Submissions should be made via the WOP 2023
EasyChair page. Detailed instructions can be found on the submission page
<https://odpa.github.io/workshop-on-ontology-design-and-patterns/2023/submission_instructions.html>.
Note that design pattern submissions also need to be submitted to the
ontologydesignpatterns.org community portal, as described on that page.
*Posters*

Accepted pattern submissions will be expected to present a poster
describing the pattern at the workshop poster session. Accepted research or
short papers may also be presented in this manner if the authors would like
to, but posters are not mandatory for such submissions.
*Important Dates*

   - Papers submissions: July 24, 2023
   - Papers notifications: August 28, 2023
   - Camera-ready submissions: September 4, 2023
   - The workshop will be held on: November 6-7, 2023

*Proceeding*Accepted research papers and pattern descriptions will be
published online as CEUR-Workshop Proceedings. However, the authors can opt
out and choose not to publish their paper(s).*WOP Chairs*
