Semantic Web Journal Call for Papers on Big Data: Theory and Practice
http://www.semantic-web-journal.net

The Semantic Web journal calls for innovative and high-quality papers describing theory and practice of storing, accessing, searching, mining, processing, and visualizing big data. We especially invite papers that describe or demonstrate how ontologies, Linked Data, and Semantic Web technologies can handle the problems arising when integrating massive amounts of multi-thematic and multi-perspective information from heterogeneous sources to answer complex questions that cut through domain boundaries.

We welcome all paper categories, i.e., full research papers, application reports, systems and tools, ontology papers, as well as surveys, as long as they clearly relate to challenges and opportunities arising from processing big data - see our listing of paper types in the author guidelines. In other words, we expect all submitted manuscripts to address how the presented work can exploit massive and/or heterogeneous data.

Topics include but are not limited to

    Sensor Semantics and Smart Dust
    Semantics-based Aggregation and Generalization of (Observation) Data
    Massive Data Integration for the Digital Earth
    Semantic Interoperability and Heterogeneity
    Linked Science
    Knowledge Discovery from Linked Data
    Mining the Social and Mobile Web
    Inductive and Abductive Approaches to Ontology Learning
    Ontology Modularization
    Ontology Evolution
    Knowledge Patterns
    On-the-fly Ontology Alignment and Matching
    Semantic Translation
    Distributed Reasoning
    Handling Uncertainty, Vagueness, and Inconsistencies
    Ontology-driven Data Visualization
    Semantics-enabled User Interfaces to Handle Massive Data
    Trust and Privacy Issues in Publishing and Reasoning about Big Data
    The User as Knowledge Engineer
    Semantics-based Negotiation between Domain Experts
Dialog and Question Answering Systems based on Linked Data and Ontologies Connecting the Semantic Web with Spatial Data Infrastructures and the Model Web
    Internet of Things
    Applications of Linked Data

Important Dates
Manuscript submission due: 13. February 2012
First notification: 26. March 2012
Issue publication: Summer 2012

Submissions
The special issue on Big Data Theory and Practice calls for original high-quality research on any of the above mentioned topics. Authors are requested to follow the author guidelines, submit online as detailed in the author guidelines, and include the name of the call within the submission letter. All manuscripts will be reviewed based on the SWJ open and transparent review policy and will be made available during online the review process.
