<p class="MsoNormal"><span>CSWS 2011 will feature two tracks: a Research and a Work-in-Progress track. The objective of the research track is to solicit original papers that present accomplished research on the area
of the Semantic Web. The Work-in-Progress track aims at providing an opportunity for practitioners to present their on-going research on principles and applications of the Semantic Web, even when implementation or deployment has not been completed.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Accepted submissions will be published in the symposium Proceeding.</span></p>
