SEMANTiCS 2024 is a major venue for research and industrial innovation
and features a workshop and tutorial program addressing the diverse
practical interests of its audience. This program is intended to offer a
rich diversity of topics to conference attendees and local participants
seeking to pick up new skills and stay up-to-date regarding the latest
developments in the community. We encourage submissions of proposals on
all topics in the general areas of SEMANTiCS 2024 and proposals bridging
or introducing new perspectives and/or challenges in these areas.
Workshops and tutorials may incorporate panel discussions, lightning
talks, meetings, networking or hands-on sessions, hackathons and other
practical formats where applicable. Rooms for business or project
meetings are available upon request as well.

Submission via Easychair on https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sem24
=Scope & Goals=
Workshops and tutorials at SEMANTiCS 2024 allow your organisation or
project to advance and promote your topics and gain increased
visibility. The workshops and tutorials will be announced on the
SEMANTiCS website and they will be seen by all participants. SEMANTiCS
2024 workshops and tutorials can be incubators for industrial and
scientific communities that form and share a particular research and
development agenda and they will provide a forum for presenting
contributions and findings to a diverse and knowledgeable community.
Furthermore, the event can be used as a dissemination activity in the
scope of large research projects or as a closed format for
research/commercial project consortia meetings.
=Proceedings=
For the proceedings, we offer two options:
Option A: In case you want to maintain an already existing series or
want to have one of your own, please organize the proceedings yourself.
Option B: In case you do not have enough contributions/page volume to
create proceedings of your own, we offer to publish your papers as part
of the SEMANTiCS side event proceedings. Side events proceedings will
include posters & demos and (optional) contributions from workshops.
In case you want to make use of Option B, please get in touch with the
workshop & tutorial chairs or drop us a note via Easychair.
=Setup and Requirements=
SEMANTiCS 2024 workshops and tutorials may be either half or full day
long. Workshops and tutorials take place on the days before and/or after
the main SEMANTiCS 2024 EU conference (17th of September 2024). Further
details will be communicated in due time.
Organizers of workshops and tutorials will be granted three free tickets
(only for the workshop & tutorial day) for organization purposes or
keynotes. Participants of workshops and tutorials will only be charged a
reduced fee to cover the basic costs.
Workshop and tutorial proposals must include the following information:
* outline of the themes and goals of the event, including a title and a
brief abstract (less than 200 words) intended for the SEMANTiCS 2024
website.
* a statement addressing why the event is important, why the event is
timely, and how it is relevant to SEMANTiCS 2024 and the field of
Semantic Web. For the tutorials, why the presenters are qualified for a
high-quality introduction of the topic.
* related workshops and conferences, i.e., specifying if this is a
continuation of a workshop series or a new workshop. Please provide
information about past versions (in any) and other related workshops
(including URLs and submission/acceptance counts, if available).
* a statement addressing the quality assurance criteria that will be
used by the event organizers to select the papers for the workshops and
the presenters for the tutorials (e.g., peer review or review/evaluation
by event organizers). If a peer review process is chosen as a quality
assurance criterion for the workshops, the organizers will be
responsible for their own reviewing process. Workshop organizers will be
responsible also for their own publicity (e.g., website, timelines and
call for papers) and proceedings production.
* structure of the event and plans for generating and stimulating
discussion; how will the interaction be organized in case of a hybrid event.
* expected number of event participants and (in case of previously held
events) number of registered attendees and website for previous editions
of the event.
* a description of the intended audience and the expected learning outcomes.
* desired prerequisite knowledge of the audience.
* proposed duration of the event (i.e., half or full day), different
sessions if applicable (final time slot will be assigned in accordance
with the SEMANTiCS program).
* any equipment, room capacity, or other logistic constraints.
* full contact information of all organizers of the event and main
contact person; a brief description of each organizer's background,
including relevant past experience in organizing events.
Proposals for workshops and tutorials must be submitted via Easychair:
https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sem24 (as a short paper type)
=Review and Evaluation Criteria=
Workshop and tutorial proposals will be reviewed by the SEMANTiCS 2024
Workshop & Tutorial Chairs, as well as by the SEMANTiCS 2024 organizing
committee, according to the following criteria:
* The potential to advance the state of Semantic Web research and practice
* The quality assurance criteria proposed by the organizers to select
high-quality presenters for tutorials
* The organizers' experience and ability to lead a successful event
* Timeliness and expected interest in the event topics
* The balance and synergy between all SEMANTiCS 2024 events
=Topics of interest include (but are not limited to)=
* Web Semantics & Linked (Open) Data
* Enterprise Knowledge Graphs, Graph Data Management
* Machine Learning Techniques for/using Knowledge Graphs (e.g.
reinforcement learning, deep learning, data mining and knowledge discovery)
* Interplay between Large Language Models, generative AI and Knowledge
Graphs (e.g., Retrieval Augmented Generation)
* Knowledge Management (e.g. acquisition, capture, extraction,
authoring, integration, publication)
* Terminology, Thesaurus & Ontology Management, Ontology engineering
* Reasoning, Rules and Policies
* Natural Language Processing for/using Knowledge Graphs (e.g. entity
linking and resolution using target knowledge such as Wikidata and
DBpedia, foundation models)
* Crowdsourcing for/using Knowledge Graphs
* Data Quality Management and Assurance
* Mathematical Foundation of Knowledge-aware AI

but not limited to: Knowledge Graphs in Bioinformatics, Medical AI and
Preventive Healthcare; Clinical Use Case of semantic-enabled AI-based
Approaches; AI for Environmental Challenges; Semantics in Scholarly
Communication and Scientific Knowledge Graphs; AI and LOD within GLAM
