Call for Proposals to host FOIS 2018: Formal Ontology in Information Systems

Since its inception, the International Conference on Formal Ontology in
Information Systems (FOIS conference series) has explored the multiple
perspectives on the notion of ontology that have arisen from such diverse
research communities as philosophy, logic, computer science, cognitive
science, linguistics, and various scientific domains.

This year, FOIS will be in Annecy, France (
http://www.iaoa.org/fois/2016.html).
The two previous FOIS conferences were held in 2014 in Rio de Janeiro, and
2012 in Graz  (http://www.kr-med.org/icbofois2012/fois.htm).

The International Association for Ontology and its Applications (IAOA,
http://www.iaoa.org/) is soliciting proposals for the location of the
Eighth International Conference on Formal Ontology and Information Systems
(FOIS) to be held in 2018.

Proposals should include a description of the conference venue, the
availability of local sponsorship, proposed dates, and a preliminary
budget. Possible co-location with related conferences will also be
considered as a factor in the final decision.
The IAOA has adopted the policy to take all risks and benefits for the FOIS
conferences while encouraging sponsors to take part of the risks.

Please send proposals to Oliver Kutz (Oliver.Kutz@unibz.it) by June 21, 
2016.
