################################################
In the past two years the Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC) has
provided a semantic Web application to browse conference data.
The application, called Conference Live, is a Web and mobile application
based on conference data from the Semantic Web Dog Food server, which
provides facilities to browse papers and authors at a specific
conference. The data-backend is provided by the metadata chairs, while
the front-end application has been developed by different teams for
ESWC2014(http://oak.dcs.shef.ac.uk/eswc2014) and ESWC2015
(http://oak.dcs.shef.ac.uk/eswc2015). In this challenge we call for a
front-end application for ESWC2016. The task consist in implementing a
system that allows the navigation of ESWC-16 semantic metadata. The
system should satisfy specific requirements indicated in the call. The
metadata chairs provide:
- data which is enriched with social features (e.g. integrated Twitter
accounts of paper authors), scheduling features (calendar information
are attached for paper presentations and social events)
- a backend service to vote for publications, if the conference includes
sessions where participants can vote, as it is popular e.g. for poster
and demo sessions.
Submissions will consist of:
1. A summary description (abstract) of up to 200 words;
2. A paper presenting the details of the implemented method, which
discusses its novelty (if applicable), and highlights its strengths and
weaknesses;
3. Web Access: the Web application must be fully implemented and the
code must be accessible either via the Web (e.g github) or downloadable.
In particular, the application should be:
- Open Source
- compatible with Cordova framework (https://cordova.apache.org/)
