We would like to invite you to Leipzig, Germany to explore with us best practices in engineering semantic systems. *Important Information (to help you prepare):* * The *deadline *for scientific papers will be *May 30th*a separate call for papers will be announced soon. * SEMANTiCS 2014 will be co-located with o September 3: 2nd DBpedia Community Meeting: http://wiki.dbpedia.org/meetings/Leipzig2014 o September 2: Multilingual Linked Open Data for Enterprises (MLODE 2014) o September 1-3: More workshops, meetings, tutorials * Workshop, Community Meetings and Challenges: We have a total of three days reserved for additional meetings, tutorials and workshops for September 1 - 3. If you are interested in a free room (coffee included), please send an email to the Chair of the Organising Committee, Ricardo Usbeck (http://www.semantics.cc/home/committee/organising-committee/). The annual SEMANTiCS conference (formerly known as I-Semantics) is the meeting place for professionals who make semantic computing work and understand the benefits and discuss how to overcome its limitations. Every year, SEMANTiCS attracts information managers, IT-architects, software engineers, and researchers, from organisations ranging from NPOs, public administrations to the largest companies in the world. Attendees learn from industry experts and top researchers about emerging trends and topics in semantic software, enterprise data, linked data & open data strategies and methodologies in knowledge modeling and text & data analytics. The SEMANTiCS community is very diverse; attendees have responsibilities in a range of areas, including knowledge management, technical documentation, e-commerce, big data analytics, enterprise search, document management, business intelligence, and enterprise vocabulary management. SEMANTiCS 2014 in Leipzig continues our long tradition of bringing together colleagues from around the world to present papers, panels, exhibitions and posters, to discuss best practices of semantic systems in birds-of-a-feather sessions and exchange knowledge further in informal settings. SEMANTiCS addresses problems common among information managers, software engineers, IT-architects and various specialist departments working to develop, implement and/or evaluate semantic software systems. The SEMANTiCS program is a rich mix of technical talks, panel discussions of important topics, and presentations by people who are ambitious to make information machines work - just like you. In addition, attendees can network with experts in a variety of fields. These relationships provide great value to organisations as they encounter subtle technical issues. The expertise gained by SEMANTiCS attendees has a long-term impact on their careers and organisations. These factors make SEMANTiCS the premiere event for our community. The following 'horizontals' (topics) and 'verticals' (industries) are mainly addressed: * Business Models, Governance & Data Strategies * Knowledge Discovery & Intelligent Search * Data Integration & Enterprise Linked Data * Big Data & Text Analytics * Data Portals & Knowledge Visualisation * Document Management & Content Management * Terminology, Thesaurus & Ontology Management * Industry & Engineering * Life Sciences & Health Care * Public Administration * Galleries, Libraries, Archives & Museums (GLAM) * Media, Publishing & Advertising * Financial Industry * Telecommunications * Energy We encourage participants to submit proposals for workshops, thematic focus and special programmes and events in contacting anyone from the SEMANTiCS Organising Committee: (http://www.semantics.cc/home/committee/organising-committee/) Call for Industry Presentations and Research Papers as well Posters and Demos will be announced at www.semantics.cc <http://www.semantics.cc> soon. Transfer: Research and experts meet industry, industry meets experts and research. SEMANTiCS is the place to exchange (project) ideas based on best practices and to learn more about the various perspectives one can have on probably the most valuable resources of our days: data & information. Engineering: Software providers, developers and IT-architects meet research and (potential) users from industry. SEMANTiCS is the place to dive deep into semantic web and linked data technologies. Community: Make new friends and renew old acquaintances. SEMANTiCS is the meeting place to discuss and to initiate new projects, to extend ongoing activities, and to showcase the latest developments. On behalf of all the people organizing SEMANTiCS 2014, we hope to see you in September in Leipzig, Sebastian Hellmann (AKSW, DBpedia), Harald Sack (Hasso-Plattner-Institut), Agata Filipowska (Poznan University of Economics), Christian Dirschl (Wolters Kluwer) and Andreas Blumenauer (Semantic Web Company) -- Sebastian Hellmann AKSW/NLP2RDF research group Insitute for Applied Informatics (InfAI) affiliated with DBpedia Events: * *21st March, 2014*: LD4LT Kick-Off <https://www.w3.org/community/ld4lt/wiki/LD4LT_Group_Kick-Off_and_Roadmap_Meeting> @European Data Forum * *Sept. 1-5, 2014* Conference Week in Leipzig, including ** *Sept 2nd*, MLODE 2014 ** *Sept 3rd*, 2nd DBpedia Community Meeting ** *Sept 4th-5th*, SEMANTiCS (formerly i-SEMANTICS) <http://semantics.cc/> Venha para a Alemanha como PhD: http://bis.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/csf Projects: http://dbpedia.org, http://nlp2rdf.org, http://linguistics.okfn.org, https://www.w3.org/community/ld4lt <http://www.w3.org/community/ld4lt> Homepage: http://aksw.org/SebastianHellmann Research Group: http://aksw.org Thesis: http://tinyurl.com/sh-thesis-summary http://tinyurl.com/sh-thesis
