Due to numerous requests, we decided to extend the full-paper deadline for the Consuming Linked Data (COLD) Workshop at ISWC.

Abstracts and titles are still due at the same time: July 1st (23:59 Hawaiian time).

However, full papers are now due on July 8th (23:59 Hawaiian time).

Full papers without an abstract submitted before the July 1st deadline will not be accepted.

== Final call for papers ==

  6th International Workshop on Consuming Linked Data (COLD 2015)
  http://www.dcc.uchile.cl/cold2015/

  co-located with
  14th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2015)
  Bethlehem, PA, USA

The quantity of published Linked Data continues to increase. However, applications that consume Linked Data are not yet widespread. Reasons may include a lack of suitable methods for a number of open problems, including the seamless integration of Linked Data from multiple sources, dynamic discovery of available data and data sources, provenance and information quality assessment, application development environments, and appropriate end user interfaces. Addressing these issues requires well-founded research, including the development and investigation of concepts that can be applied in systems which consume Linked Data from the Web. Our main objective is to provide a venue for scientific discourse (including systematic analysis and rigorous evaluation) of concepts, algorithms and approaches for consuming Linked Data.

TOPICS OF INTEREST
===================

While previous editions of the workshop have attracted a number of submissions that addressed topics related to (RDF and) Linked Data management in general, with COLD 2015 we aim to steer the workshop back towards the core goals. To this end, we explicitly seek submissions that address research problems related to at least one of the following two aspects of Linked Data consumption:

* Makes use of Linked Data principles, including dereferencing
* Involves direct use of multiple, real-world Linked Datasets

In the context of these two aspects of Linked Data consumption, relevant topics for COLD 2015 include but are not limited to:

* Live Linked Data (i.e., algorithms and applications that make use of Linked Data at runtime)
* Architectures for consuming Linked Data (e.g., Dataspaces, Cloud, NoSQL)
* Integration of Linked Data sources (e.g., entity resolution, sameas, vocabulary mapping, etc.) * Handling additional Web data (e.g., Deep Web, APIs, Microdata, JSON, Atom, tables, etc.) * Web-scale data management (e.g., crawling, indexing, parallel processing, etc.) * Novel languages for navigating and consuming Linked Data (e.g., NautiLOD, LDQL, etc)
* Linked Data summarization, guides and schema learning
* Query processing over multiple Linked Datasets
* Search over the Web of Linked Data
* Auto-discovery of URIs and data
* Caching and replication
* Dataset dynamics
* Reasoning on Linked Data from multiple sources
* Information quality and trustworthiness of Linked Data
* User-interface research for interacting with the Web of Linked Data

IMPORTANT DATES (deadline extended)
===================

Abstract deadline: July 1 (23:59 Hawaiian Time)
Full paper deadline: July 8 (23:59 Hawaiian Time)
Final decision and notification: July 31
Camera ready: August 18

===================
SUBMISSIONS
===================

We seek novel technical research papers in the context of consuming Linked Data with a length of up to 12 pages. Paper submissions must be formatted in the style of the Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). Please submit your paper via EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cold2015

Submissions that do not comply with the formatting of LNCS or that exceed the page limit will be rejected without review. The author list does not need to be anonymized, as we do not have a double-blind review process in place. Submissions will be peer reviewed by three independent reviewers. Accepted papers have to be presented at the workshop to be published in the proceedings. Proceedings will be published online at CEUR-WS. We also encourage supplementary Web-based material (e.g., XHTML+RDFa versions of papers) to be submitted alongside PDFs. This material will be published on the workshop website.
