<div dir="ltr">[Apologies for cross-posting]<br><br>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br> CALL FOR PAPERS, SYSTEMS & ONTOLOGIES<br> 4th OWL Reasoner Evaluation Workshop (ORE 2015)<br> Collocated with the 28th International Workshop on Description Logics<br> June 6, 2015 - Athens, Greece<br> <a href="https://www.w3.org/community/owled/ore-2015-workshop/">https://www.w3.org/community/owled/ore-2015-workshop/</a><br>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br><br><br>OBJECTIVES<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>The goal of this workshop is to bring together both the DEVELOPERS and END-USERS of reasoners for (subsets of) OWL 2, including systems focusing on both intensional (ontology) and extensional (data) query answering. The workshop will give developers a perfect opportunity to promote their systems.<br><br><br>CALL FOR PAPERS<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>We invite submission of papers describing:<br><br> * The architecture, implementation, and expected performance of the reasoner.<br><br> * Reasoner implementation details, usage reports, implementation "tips and tricks".<br><br> * Challenging ontologies and/or benchmark proposals for OWL reasoners.<br><br>Papers should be formatted according to the Springer LNCS guidelines (<a href="http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html">http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html</a>) and should not be longer than 6 pages (excluding references).<br><br>Submissions must be in PDF through the EasyChair conference system: <a href="https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ore2015">https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ore2015</a><br><br>All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the program committee. Selected papers will be presented during the workshop and published as a volume of CEUR workshop proceedings (<a href="http://ceur-ws.org/">http://ceur-ws.org/</a>).<br><br><br><br>CALL FOR SYSTEMS<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>We invite reasoner developers to submit their systems for participation in the 2015 OWL reasoner competition. The preliminary outline for the competition is as follows:<br><br> * The test sets will include OWL ontologies from all OWL 2 profiles and of varying sizes, from a large corpus of ontologies (including ontologies from the NCBO BioPortal, a web crawl, and user-submitted ontologies).<br> * The tested tasks will include consistency checking, classification, entailment checking, and query answering. <br> * Developers will send a JAR file of their systems to the competition organizers who will then carry out the benchmarks.<br><br>More details will be published soon. Information about last year's competition can be found on the ORE 2014 website: <a href="http://www.easychair.org/smart-program/VSL2014/ORE-competition.html">http://www.easychair.org/smart-program/VSL2014/ORE-competition.html</a><br><br>In addition to the system submissions, reasoner developers are invited to submit a short paper describing their system. See the above instructions for paper submissions.<br><br>Please, submit your system to ore2015 [at] easychair [dot] org by May 1, 2015.<br><br><br>CALL FOR ONTOLOGIES<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>We invite ontology developers to submit ontologies which they believe pose a challenge performance-wise for current OWL reasoners to handle. These ontologies will be included in our ontology corpus, and additionally will have a separate analysis in the competition proceedings.<br><br>In addition to the ontology submissions, ontology developers are invited to submit a short paper describing their ontology. See the above instructions for paper submissions.<br><br>Please, submit your ontology to ore2015 [at] easychair [dot] org by May 1, 2015.<br><br><br>IMPORTANT DATES<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br> * Paper submission deadline: April 10, 2015<br> * Notification of acceptance: May 1, 2015<br> * System/ontology submission (for competition): May 1, 2015<br> * Workshop: June 6, 2015<br> * Competition: June 7-10, 2015 (TBC)<br><br><br><br>ORGANISATION<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>For enquiries, please contact the organisers at ore2015 [at] easychair [dot] org<br><br>Organisers, PC chairs<br><br> * Michel Dumontier, Stanford University, USA<br> * Birte Glimm, Ulm University, Germany <br> * Rafael Gonçalves, Stanford University, US<br> * Matthew Horridge, Stanford University, US<br> * Ernesto Jiménez-Ruiz, University of Oxford, UK<br> * Nicolas Matentzoglu, University of Manchester, UK<br> * Bijan Parsia, University of Manchester, UK<br> <br>Local Organizers<br><br> * Giorgos Stamou, National Technical University of Athens, Greece<br> * Giorgos Stoilos, National Technical University of Athens, Greece<br><br><br>Program committee<br><br> * Ana Armas, University of Oxford, UK<br> * Franz Baader, TU Dresden, Germany<br> * Claudia D'Amato, Università degli Studi di Bari, Italy<br> * Christine Golbreich, University of Montpellier, France<br> * Yevgeny Kazakov, Ulm University, Germany<br> * Evgeny Kharlamov, University of Oxford, UK<br> * Pavel Klinov, Ulm University, Germany<br> * Ilianna Kollia, National Technical University of Athens, Greece<br> * Markus Krötzsch, Technical University of Dresden, Germany<br> * Despoina Magka, Yahoo!, UK<br> * Francisco Martin-Recuerda, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain<br> * Christian Meilicke, University of Mannheim, Germany<br> * Julian Mendez, TU Dresden, Germany<br> * Catia Pesquita, University of Lisbon, Portugal<br> * Maria del Mar Roldán García, Universidad de Malaga, Spain<br> * Jörg Schönfisch, Softplant GmbH, Germany<br> * Floriano Scioscia, Technical University of Bari, Italy <br> * Alessandro Solimando, University of Genoa, Italy<br> * Weihong Song, University of New Brunswick, Canada<br> * Kavitha Srinivas, IBM Research, USA<br> * Andreas Steigmiller, Ulm University, Germany<br> * Valentina Tamma, University of Liverpool, UK<br> * Dmitry Tsarkov, University of Manchester, UK<br> * Zhe Wang, Griffith University, Australia<br> * Dmitriy Zheleznyakov, University of Oxford, UK<br><br><br><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Ernesto Jiménez-Ruiz<br>Research Assistant<br>
