FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS 34th International Workshop on Description Logics, DL 2021 September 19-22, 2021 - Bratislava, Slovakia http://dl.kr.org/dl2021 The DL workshop is the major annual event of the description logic research community. It is the forum in which those interested in description logics, both from academia and industry, meet to discuss ideas, share information and compare experiences. The 34th edition will be held in Bratislava, Slovakia from September 19th to 22nd, 2021, and will be collocated with a number of events as part of Bratislava Knowledge September (BAKS 2021, see https://dai.fmph.uniba.sk/events/baks2021/).

B Abstracts of up to 2 pages (excluding references). Both regular papers and abstracts must be formatted using the Springer LNCS style with the correct fonts and submitted via: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dl2021 Submissions of type A must contain enough substance that it can be cited in other publications and may not have appeared before. A clearly marked appendix with additional proofs and evaluation data may be included. Submissions of type B may optionally include a clearly marked appendix with additional proofs, evaluation data, or extended version of your paper, which was accepted at another conference or which you submitted or plan to submit to another conference. In the latter case the abstract should specify where the paper has been accepted or is under review. The appendix will be read at the discretion of the reviewers and will not be included in the proceedings. The appendix does not need to be in LNCS format. The proceedings will be submitted to CEUR-WS.org for online publication. Due to a change of policy at CEUR-WS.org papers of type B are no longer indexed by dblp.org and the case of an abstract of a pre-published paper may require a permission by the copyright holder. Accepted submissions of both types will be selected for either oral or poster presentation at the workshop. Submissions will be judged solely based on their content, and the type of submission will have no bearing on the decision between oral and poster presentation. Authors who require a visa to travel to Slovakia and for this reason would like to receive notification earlier than 12 July may request fast-track reviewing. To do so, authors should send an e-mail to dl2021@easychair.org, including the submission number of the paper and a statement explaining the circumstances that require fast-track review.
