[DL] Description Logic Workshop 2025: Update and Final Call for Papers

[Patrick Koopmann]

/
/ This is a reminder that the submission deadline for abstracts for the 
DL Workshop is *May 29, AOE*.

The DL workshop is often used as an opportunity to present abstracts for 
papers submitted to other conferences such as ISWC, KR or ECAI. Since 
some conferences use a double-blind review policy, we decided to make 
submissions anonymous by default this year. If you want to submit your 
submission as anonymous, you can just submit it as usual - but make sure 
not to include the author names in the PDF. This is not a requirement: 
if you do not need your submission to be anonymous, you can still 
include the author names. Please make sure to declare conflicts of 
interests if you haven't done so already./

*GENERAL INFORMATION*
The Description Logic workshop is the major annual event of the 
Description Logic research community. It is the forum in which those 
interested in description logics, both from academia and industry, meet 
to discuss ideas, share information, and compare experiences.


*SCOPE*
We invite contributions on all aspects of description logics, including, 
but not limited to:

/Foundations of description logics:/
decidability and complexity of reasoning, expressive power, novel 
inference problems, inconsistency management, reasoning techniques, 
modularisation, ontology extraction, abductive and inductive reasoning, 
learnability

/Extensions of description logics:/
closed-world and non-monotonic reasoning, epistemic reasoning, temporal 
and spatial reasoning, procedural knowledge, query answering, reasoning 
over dynamic information

/Integration of description logics with other formalisms:/
database query languages, constraint-based programming, logic 
programming, rule-based systems, knowledge graphs, hybrid reasoning 
approaches

/Applications of description logics:
/ontology engineering, ontology languages, databases, ontology-based 
data access, semi-structured data, graph-structured data, linked data,
document management, natural language, hybrid approaches combining logic 
and learning, explanations, planning, Semantic Web, cloud computing, 
conceptual modelling, web services, business processes, practical 
experiences, case studies, feasibility studies

/Systems and tools of all kinds around description logics:/
reasoners, ontology editors, ontology alignment, ontology extraction, 
ontology learning and mining, other support for ontology development, 
database schema design, query rewriting/answering/optimization, data 
integration, implementation and optimization techniques, benchmarking, 
evaluation, modelling


*SUBMISSIONS

/This year, submissions are anonymous by default./
*However, anonymity is not a requirement, and you are free to include 
author names in your submitted files.

*Submission Categories*
We welcome submissions that fall within the workshop’s scope in either 
of the following formats:

 1. /Regular Papers/ – Up to 11 pages (excluding references).
 2. /Extended Abstracts/ – 2–4 pages (excluding references).


All submissions must follow the *CEURART formatting style* using our 
DL-specific template available at https://dl25.cs.uni.opole.pl/submissions/
Submissions should be made through EasyChair.

*Regular Papers*

  * Must provide substantial contributions that can be cited in other
    publications.
  * Should not have been previously published or be under submission
    elsewhere.
  * May include an appendix with additional proofs, evaluation data, or
    other relevant content.


*Extended Abstracts*

  * Should ideally include an appendix with additional proofs,
    evaluation data, or an extended version of the paper.
  * If the abstract is based on a paper accepted or under review at
    another venue, the authors must clearly state the venue and the
    paper’s status.
  * The appendix is optional and will be reviewed at the discretion of
    the reviewers, but it will not be included in the proceedings.
  * Unlike the main submission, the appendix does not need to follow the
    CEURART format.

*Presentation Selection*
Accepted submissions (both regular papers and extended abstracts) will 
be considered for /oral/ or /poster presentations/ at the workshop. The 
selection will be based solely on content quality, not on the type of 
submission.
