* To qualify the content of information objects in order to enable navigational
tools such as indexes, cross-references, citation systems, or glossaries.
* To link pieces of information together for the purpose of enabling navigation
between them, e.g. for creating thesaurus-like hypertext interfaces for
corporate information and knowledge bases.
* To filter views of information adapted for specific users and/or purposes,
e.g. to define partial views depending on user profiles and/or knowledge
domains.
* To structure unstructured information objects or to combine unstructured
information bases with structured ones in a way that an arbitrary structure is
imposed without altering its original form.
The workshop WebS aims at being an international forum for the presentation of
both theoretical and applicative results. Papers describing application
experiences are particularly encouraged. The relevant topics may include the
following (but not limited to):
* Knowledge Management
* Semantic Web
* Ontologies
* Knowledge Sharing
* Global Knowledge Interchange
* Use of Semantic Languages and XML/RDF Infrastructures
* Metadata and Ontologies
* Visual modelling of semantic webs
* Semantic Web for e-learning and e-sciences
* Semantic Web for e-business and Large-scale Knowledge Management
* Languges, Tools and Methodologies for Semantic Annotations of Web Data
* Semantic Brokering
* Semantic Interoperability
* Semantic Web Mining
* Semantic Web Inferences Schemes
* User Interfaces
* Vizualization and modelling
* Database Technologies for the Semantic Web
