11th Workshop on Ontology Design and Patterns - WOP2020

This is the eleventh edition in a series of workshops addressing the topic of ontology and semantic web patterns as best practices, related to the ontologydesignpatterns.org initiative.

The workshop series covers issues related to quality in ontology design and ontology design patterns (ODPs) for data and knowledge engineering in Semantic Web. The increased attention to ODPs in recent years through their interaction with emerging trends of Semantic Web such as knowledge graphs can be attributed to their benefit for knowledge engineers and Semantic Web developers. Such benefits come in the form of direct link to requirements, reuse, guidance, and better communication. The workshop’s aim is thus not just: 1) providing an arena for discussing patterns, pattern-based ontologies, systems, datasets, but also 2) broadening the pattern community by developing its own "discourse" for discussing and describing relevant problems and their solutions.

For more background on the workshop series, see the main page.

WOP2020 is a full-day workshop consisting of three parts: paper presentations, a poster session, and an interactive breakout discussion session.

Call for Papers and Patterns

We invite the submission of original research results related to the focus areas of the workshop, in one of three categories:

  1. Research papers (maximum 15 pages LNCS style) presenting mature work and established results.
  2. Short papers (maximum 5 pages LNCS style) presenting proposed research directions, novel ideas, or more general positions or discussions.
  3. Ontology Design Patterns (described in paper format, 5-12 pages LNCS style) should solve a particular modelling problem, of relevance either to the broader ontology engineering community, or to some specific knowledge domain, in a novel and reusable manner. Note that accepted pattern submissions are presented through a poster session (see below).

Topics of interest

Topics include but are not limited to:

  • Pattern-based ontology design, conceptual modeling or knowledge engineering broadly
  • Use in knowledge graphs or linked data settings (including pattern-driven linking or data publishing)
  • Pattern-based information extraction, ontology learning, and relation to NLP
  • Use in streaming, ingesting or evolving knowledge
  • Use of patterns for ontology evaluation, quality assurance, ontology selection, integration or alignment
  • Pattern-based development of semantic applications
  • Reasoning with patterns (including automated reasoning, verification, or contextual reasoning)
  • Ontology engineering by domain experts
  • Quality attributes or metrics in ontologies and ontology engineering
  • Quality assurance approaches for ontology engineering
  • Pattern extraction
  • Analyses of ontology design patterns or their uses
  • Antipatterns and their relations to ODPs
  • Date lakes, business intelligence, or Big Data integration
  • Geosciences, life sciences, engineering, digital humanities, cultural preservation
  • IoT, smart homes cities, and smart agriculture
  • Semantic technology including social networks, semantic wikis or blogs

Submitting

TBD

Posters

Accepted pattern submissions will be expected to present a poster describing the pattern at the workshop poster session.

Accepted research or short papers may also be presented in this manner if the authors would like to, but posters are not mandatory for such submissions.
