SEMANTICS 2006: From Visions to Applications - The new Paradigm Shift in IT
(PRLEAP.COM) The annual international technology conference SEMANTICS 2006 will be held at TechGate Vienna, Austria from the 28th to 30th November, 2006. SEMANTICS 2006 is the first dedicated event in Europe focusing on emerging semantic web 2.0 technologies for the next generation internet. It aims to bring together researchers from academia and high level representatives of industry to create a dynamic forum for exchanging ideas.
Project DIP (FP6 - 507483) is proud to support SEMANTICS 2006, and to participate in its scientific and industrial program through a number of contributions.
Technical, industrial and scientific applications of intelligent semantic systems – for Web 2.0, business IT, new business models and the private user – are the main topics of this three-day conference. The conference will also include an industrial track for presentations on innovative commercial softwar
Leading international experts in the field representing major players (e.g. British Telecom, IBM, Microsoft, Nokia, SAP, Siemens, Wikipedia, W3C) will take an in-depth look at the current state-of-the-art in research and development and will provide insight into the use of semantic technologies.
Pioneers of the Semantic Web 2.0 as keynote speakers
Among the keynote speakers of SEMANTICS 2006 will be the pioneers and inventors of Semantic Web 2.0: Ora Lassila (leading researcher at the Nokia Research Center Cambridge, UK) and Professor James Hendler (University of Maryland, US), as well as Professor Frank Leymann (University of Stuttgart, Germany, former head of development at IBM Germany). Additionally a wide variety of experts from research and industry will speak about the applicability of semantic technologies in corporate settings.
“This conference will offer a unique forum of exchange of experiences to innovative enterprises and international research-institutions”, says Alexander Wahler of the HANIVAL Internet Services GmbH, Vienna. “Being one of the initiators of this conference series, I am looking forward to promoting a dialogue among the enterprises active in this field and the international research community as a whole.”
SEMANTICS 2006 Exhibition: showcasing applications
Visitors to the exhibition will have the opportunity to gain an overview of products and services for the semantic information and knowledge management.
Large EU-projects DIP and SUPER will also be present. DIP aims to create an industrial strength platform based on a combination of semantic web and web services technologies to fully automate the construction of web based applications from re-usable components. SUPER aims to enable business process experts to directly query and manage business processes which reside in corporate IT systems using their preferred tools and their own business oriented terminology and language.
The second annual international SEMANTICS Conference is organized by a consortium of leading international institutions and companies in the field of Semantic Web: the Austrian Computer Society; DERI Innsbruck; the HANIVAL Internet Services; Profactor Produktionsforschungs; the competence center Salzburg New Media Lab (SNML); and the Semantic Web School – Centre for knowledge transfer (SWS).
