EKAW workshops provide an informal setting where the participants have the opportunity to discuss specific technical topics in an atmosphere that fosters the active exchange of ideas. Our aim for the workshop program is to promote and collect multidisciplinary research directions that contribute to knowledge management and engineering. Members from all research areas related to knowledge are invited to submit workshop proposals.
