12th International Workshop on Scalable Semantic Web Knowledge Base Systems

SSWS 2018


Artificial Intelligence



SSWS 2018 is the twelfth edition of the successful Scalable Semantic Web
Knowledge Base Systems workshop series. This workshop provides a forum for
discussing application-oriented issues of Semantic Technologies, with the
focus on the development and deployment of systems that turn large volumes
of real-world data into actionable knowledge at industry domains. This
imposes significant scalability requirements on storage and processing
systems and demands for reliable workflows to curate and validate data from
various sources. SSWS furthermore invites contributions that integrate
methods and results from research on Property Graphs and Graph Databases
for instance as well as approaches that combine Knowledge Graphs with
machine learning.
SSWS welcomes submissions that address relevant research results, report on
real-world deployments as well as describe benchmarks and capable back ends
or system architectures.
As in previous years the SSWS workshop is co-located with the International
Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2018). This year, it will be held in
Monterey, California, USA.
The workshop day is October 9, 2018
The workshop will be centered on the discussion of the following aspects:
* recent ideas and advances towards building scalable knowledge base
systems
* parallelization or optimization of RDF/OWL storage, reasoning and SPARQL
querying
* use-cases presenting Semantic Technologies at industry scale performance
* evaluations and related principles, methodologies or tools
* tools and workflows supporting validation and curation of semantic data
from various sources
* approaches to integrate symbolic with sub-symbolic methods such as
machine learning
* combining technology and methods from Property Graphs, RDF Graphs, and
OWL reasoning
* identification of important issues and future research directions with
respect to the topics above
