==== *Call for Papers* ====
ESWC is the premier European-based annual conference for researchers and
practitioners in the field of semantic technologies. ESWC is the ideal venue
for the discussion of the latest scientific insights and novel applications of
semantic technologies.
The leading motto of the 10th edition of ESWC will be "Semantics and Big Data".
A crucial challenge that will guide the efforts of many scientific communities in the
years to come is the one of making sense of large volumes of heterogeneous and complex
data. Application-relevant data often has to be processed in real time and originates
from diverse sources such as Linked Data, text and speech, images, videos and sensors,
communities and social networks, etc. ESWC, with its focus on semantics, can offer an
important contribution to global challenge.
ESWC 2013 will feature nine thematic research tracks (see below) as well as an in-use and industrial track.
In line with the motto "Semantics and Big Data", the conference will feature a special track on
"Semantic Technologies for Big Data Analytics in Real Time". In order to foster the interaction
with other disciplines, this year's edition will also feature a special track on "Cognition and Semantic
Web".
For the research and special tracks, we welcome the submission of papers
describing theoretical, analytical, methodological, empirical, and application
research on semantic technologies. For the In-Use and Industrial track we
solicit the submission of papers describing the practical exploitation of
semantic technologies in different domains and sectors. Submitted papers should
describe original work, present significant results, and provide rigorous,
principled, and repeatable evaluation. We strongly encourage and appreciate the
submission of papers including links to data sets and other material used for
the evaluation as well as to live demos or source code for tool implementations.
Submitted papers will be judged based on originality, awareness of related
work, potential impact on the Semantic Web field, technical soundness of the
proposed methods, and readability. Each paper will be reviewed by at least
three program committee members in addition to one track chair. This year a
rebuttal phase has been introduced in order to give authors the opportunity to
provide feedback to reviewers' questions. The authors' answers will support
reviewers and track chairs in their discussion and in taking final decisions
regarding acceptance.

not follow the LNCS guidelines can be rejected automatically without a review.
Authors of accepted papers will be required to provide semantic annotations for
the abstract of their submission at the time of acceptance. At least one author
of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper
there.
