<br>
The purpose of the Reasoning Web Summer School is to disseminate
recent advances on reasoning techniques <br>
which are of particular interest to Semantic Web and Linked Data
applications. It is primarily intended for postgraduate <br>
(PhD or MSc) students, postdocs, young researchers, and senior
researchers wishing to learn about Reasoning<br>
on the Semantic Web and related issues. In 2015, the theme of the
school is:
<br>
<br>
"Web Logic Rules"
<br>
<br>
As in the previous years, lectures in the summer school will be
<br>
given by a distinguished group of expert lecturers. Apart from
<br>
their lectures, most lecturers will also be present for the duration
<br>
of the school to interact and establish contacts with the students.
<br>
<br>
The summer school is co-located with RR2015, RuleML 2015 and
CADE-25,
<br>
hence, there will be a great opportunity for students to also attend
<br>
a major event in the area after the school. In addition, RR and
RuleML
<br>
will also include a Doctoral Consortium and students of RW are
<br>
particularly encouraged to also apply to the Doctoral consortium of
RR
<br>
and RuleML - joint applications are explicitly encouraged.
