The Research and Innovation track at SEMANTiCS 2024 welcomes papers on novel scientific research and innovations relevant to the Semantic Web, Semantic Technologies, and semantic-enabled AI. We also welcome submissions at the intersection between this field and other scientific disciplines. Submissions should be original and should not have been published elsewhere in any form or language. Papers must adhere to the instructions given in the submission guidelines, including references and optional appendices. Each submission will receive at least three independent reviews and will be evaluated based on their novelty, technical quality, reproducibility, and practical significance.

= Important Dates =

* Abstract Submission Deadline:       April 22, 2024

* Paper Submission Deadline: April 29, 2024

* Notification of Acceptance: June 11, 2024

* Camera-Ready Paper: July 09, 2024

All deadlines are set for 11:59 pm, Anywhere On Earth time (UTC-12)

Submissions will be through Easychair. https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sem24 https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sem24

Proceedings of SEMANTiCS 2024 EU will be made available open access. The publisher will be TIB Open Publishing.
