RR 2008
The Second International Conference on
Web Reasoning and Rule Systems
(www.rr-conference.org/RR2008)
Karlsruhe, Germany, October 31 - November 1, 2008
Call for Papers - DEADLINE EXTENDED
The reasoning landscape features theoretical areas such as knowledge representation (KR) and algorithms; design aspects of rule markup; design of ontology languages; engineering of engines, translators, and other tools; efficiency considerations and benchmarking; standardization efforts, such as the Rules Interchange Format activity at W3C; and applications. Of particular interest is also the use of rules to facilitate ontology modeling, and the relationships and possible interactions between rules and ontology languages like RDF and OWL, as well as ontology reasoning related to RDF and OWL, or querying with SPARQL. Suggested topics include the following, which is not to be considered as an exhaustive list:
