Workshop Topics

The workshop comprises, but is not strictly limited to, the following topics:

Modularity

  • Languages for modular ontologies and knowledge representation

  • Techniques for modularity: algorithms, implementations, ontology design patterns etc.

  • Modularity in reasoning: incremental and distributed reasoning

  • Modularity in ontology engineering: ontology modules reuse and publishing

  • Theoretical and cognitive aspects of modularity

Context

  • Representing context in ontologies and knowledge resources

  • Ontologies and standards for modelling contextual information

  • Reasoning with contextual information and metadata

  • Matching, combining and disambiguating knowledge resources with contexts

Evolution

  • Definitions, algorithms and evolution in ontologies and knowledge resources

  • Reasoning and planning with evolving ontologies and data sources

  • Evolution in ontology management: merging, versioning, alignment, integration

  • Fault diagnosis and repair in ontologies and data sources

  • Knowledge resources archiving and versioning
