*ESWC 2009 Call for demonstrations/posters*

6th European Semantic Web Conference
May 31 ? June 4, 2009
Crete, Greece
http://www.eswc2009.org/

The ESWC is the leading European conference on theory, practice and  
applications of Semantic Web technologies, attracting an increasing  
number of participants from various communities and sectors.

*Call for demonstrations*
The demonstrations track of the ESWC2009 complements the overall  
program of the conference with demonstrations of real-world,  
proven-and-tested advances of semantic technologies. In addition to  
papers and posters presenting latest theoretical achievements the  
ESWC2009 is seeking demonstrations of novel applications of semantics  
in various sectors, as well as innovative enabling technologies and  
deployment infrastructures relevant for the topics of interest defined  
for the main conference and the research and poster tracks.

Submissions to the demonstrations track must be in form of a textual  
description of the demonstration to be given at the conference. The  
submissions must be maximally 3 pages long and formatted according to  
the Springer LNCS style. They should be submitted as PDF using the  
conference submission system.

Accepted submissions to the demonstrations track will be published as  
part of the ESWC2009 proceedings. As such, the quality assurance will  
be strict, and the demonstrations will be subject to review by a  
separate Program Committee. Proposed demonstrations must show  
relevance, novelty and significance to the topics of the conference.

The associated textual descriptions should contain sections answering  
the following questions, as appropriate:
1.What is the research background and application context of the  
demonstration?

2.What is the key technology used, and how does the demonstrated  
system, application or infrastructure relate to pre-existing work?  
What exactly will be demonstrated? What exactly will a visitor of the  
demonstration learn?

*Call for posters*
The poster track of the ESWC2009 will provide  an opportunity for  
presenting late-breaking results, ongoing research projects, and  
speculative or innovative work in progress. Posters are intended to  
provide authors and participants with the ability to connect with each  
other and to engage in discussions about the work. Technical posters,  
reports on semantic systems, descriptions of completed work, and work  
in progress are equally welcome.
Authors must submit a 2-page paper (PDF, Springer LNCS style) with a  
short abstract for evaluation. The paper must clearly demonstrate  
relevance to the Semantic Web and the topics of interest of ESWC2009.  
Submissions will be evaluated by a separate Program Committee.  
Decisions about acceptance will be based on relevance to the Semantic  
Web area, originality, potential significance, topicality and clarity.  
Papers that exceed the given page length or do not follow the LNCS  
guidelines risk being rejected without a review.
Papers submitted to the research track will NOT automatically be  
considered for the poster track. A separate poster submission must be  
made. For example, a poster can be provided for an accepted paper or  
can be used to present work that was insufficiently mature for the  
research track.

*Submission*
Submission and reviewing of demonstrations and posters will be  
electronic via the ESWC2009 Demo EasyChair installation at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc09demo and
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eswc09posters, respectively.
