Scope of the Workshop

Recently, grid computing is an emerging paradigm to interconnect heterogeneous environment. Especially, semantics and knowledge are playing an important role of building an efficient grid platform to share information and knowledge with each other. For doing this, we have been facing many problems such as semantic heterogeneity (e.g., inconsistency and conflict) between information sources.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners in areas of knowledge and intelligence, semantics, and grid computing to share their visions, research achievements and solutions to real applications, to resolve the challenge issues and to establish worldwide cooperative research and development.

 Topics of interests

l. Theoretic aspects

- Ontology models and ontology engineering
- Ontology mapping (alignment, matching, and merging)
- Consensus theory (conflict resolution and negotiation)
- Knowledge representation and discovery
- Social network analysis (user clustering and community identification)

2. Application aspects

- Knowledge management systems
- Data mining applications
- Multi-agent architecture
- Semantic Web service applications
- Other applications (e.g., e-commerce and e-learning) 

 Instructions for Authors

Authors are invited to submit their papers, written in English, of up to 8 pages (a paper without figures can be around 4500 words maximally), presenting the results of original research or innovative practical applications relevant to the workshop topics. Papers should be prepared according to the rules of LNCS (for formatting information see Information for LNCS Authors).

Paper submissions should be done electronically, using submission system on page: http://www.iccs-meeting.org/iccs2007/papers/upload.php

Please choose the proper workshop for submitting your papers. Papers should be submitted in pdf or ps file format. All papers will be peer reviewed by 3 workshop PC members. At least one author of an accepted paper must register and present the paper at the workshop.

Proceedings and Post-workshop Publications

All accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings published in a bound volume by Springer-Verlag in Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. The proceedings will be available at the workshop. After the workshop, some authors of selected presented papers will be invited for extending their papers for publication in a special issue of Journal of Universal Computer Science.
