Call for Papers
The Journal of Web Semantics seeks submissions for a special issue on Semantics in the Creative Industries,
edited by George Fazekas and Kevin Page. Submissions are due by 7th February 2020.
With substantial increase in bandwidth for multimedia and the evolution of web technologies,
the Web has become a core platform for the distribution and consumption of a broad range of
cultural artefacts, including broadcast media, advertising, games, movies and documentary,
photography, online libraries and museum collections, as well as visual and performing arts
such as music. The web is also a platform for exchanging ideas and works in the broader
creative sectors. Semantic description, linking and analysis of this type of content is therefore
a major challenge receiving increasing attention in recent years. In this special issue, we welcome
articles describing research that (1) facilitate knowledge exchange and the description of cultural
artefacts and workflows in the creative industries, (2) linked data solutions in the cultural and
creative sectors as well as (3) works describing new methods for, or (4) works providing analytical
insight into the creation, distribution and consumption of cultural artefacts on the Web.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
* Knowledge discovery and representation for cultural, artistic and intellectual works
* Ontology extraction, generation, alignment and verification in support of cultural activities and their reception
* Representation and exchange of workflows in the production-consumption chain of creative and artistic intellectual works
* Entity recognition, disambiguation and linking for cultural artefacts
* Research and applications that facilitate access to creative and artistic outputs and intellectual works on the Web
* Web-based systems for the production and/or analysis of intellectual works
Important Dates:
* Call for papers: 16th September 2019
* Submission deadline: 24th January 7th February 2020
* Author notification: 13th 27th March 2020
* Publication: Q2 2020
