·         Ontology design, evolution and management

·         Ontology mapping and merging

·         Semantic Web and uncertainty

·         Description logics and frame logics as ontology formalisms

·         Modular, distributed, and multi-ontologies

·         Semantic Web technologies for collaboration and cooperation

·         Semantic Web Services (description, discovery, invocation,

CSWS 2011 will feature two tracks: a Research and a Work-in-Progress track.
The objective of the research track is to solicit original papers that
present accomplished research on the area of the Semantic Web. The
Work-in-Progress track aims at providing an opportunity for practitioners to
present their on-going research on principles and applications of the
Semantic Web, even when implementation or deployment has not been completed.



Accepted submissions will be published in the symposium Proceeding.
