                           CALL FOR PAPERS
        30th International Workshop on Description Logics, DL 2017

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The DL workshop is the major annual event of the description logic research
community. It is the forum at which those interested in description logics,
both from academia and industry, meet to discuss ideas, share information and
compare experiences. The workshop will be held in Montpellier, France from
July 18th to July 21st, 2017.

Important Dates (Firm Deadlines)
============
Paper registration deadline:

Invited Speakers
=============
* Markus Kr??tzsch, Technical University of Dresden
* Andreas Pieris, University of Edinburgh
* Uli Sattler, University of Manchester


Workshop Scope
=============
We invite contributions on all aspects of description logics, including but
not limited to:
* Foundations of description logics: decidability and complexity of reasoning,
   expressive power, novel inference problems, inconsistency management,
   reasoning techniques, and modularity aspects
* Extensions of description logics: closed-world and nonmonotonic reasoning,
   epistemic reasoning, temporal and spatial reasoning, procedural knowledge,
   query answering, reasoning over dynamic information
* Integration of description logics with other formalisms: object-oriented
   representation languages, database query languages, constraint-based
   programming, logic programming, and rule-based systems
* Applications and use areas of description logics: ontology engineering,
   ontology languages, databases, ontology-based data access, semi-structured
   data, graph structured data, linked data, document management, natural
   language, learning, planning, Semantic Web, cloud computing, conceptual
   modelling, web services, business processes
* Systems and tools around description logics: reasoners, software tools for
   and using description logic reasoning (e.g. ontology editors, database
   schema design, query optimisation, and data integration tools),
   implementation and optimisation techniques, benchmarking, evaluation,
   modelling


Submissions
==========
* Submissions may be of two types:
(1) Papers accepted at some conference can be submitted as accepted elsewhere
     together with a 1-page abstract that also specifies where the paper has
     been accepted.
(2) Other submissions consist of 11 pages LNCS plus references. There is no
     page limit on the list of references. If the paper should not appear in
     the proceedings, an additional 1-page abstract has to be submitted.

* For submissions with an additional 1-page abstract, only the abstract
   is published in the proceedings. The abstracts might not be indexed in
   dblp. This option is designed for authors who wish to announce results
   that have been published elsewhere, or which the authors intend to
   submit or have already submitted to a venue with an incompatible prior/
   concurrent publication policy.
* All submissions may optionally include a clearly marked appendix
   (e.g., with additional proofs or evaluation data). The appendix will
   be read at the discretion of the reviewers and not included in the
   proceedings. The appendix does not need to be in LNCS format.
* Submission page: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dl2017
* Accepted papers and 1-page abstracts will be made available electronically
   in the CEUR Workshop Proceedings series (http://www.CEUR-ws.org/).
* Accepted submissions, be they full papers or 1-page abstracts, will be
   selected for either oral or poster presentation at the workshop. Submissions
   will be judged solely based upon their content, and the type of submission
   will have no bearing on the decision between oral and poster presentation.

Organisation
============
* Alessandro Artale, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano (Programme co-Chair)
* Birte Glimm, University of Ulm (Programme co-Chair)
* Meghyn Bienvenu, University of Montpellier (Workshop co-Chair)
* Marie-Laure Mugnier, University of Montpellier (Workshop co-Chair)

Resources
=========
* Information about submission, registration, travel information, etc., will
   be made available on the DL 2017 homepage: http://dl.kr.org/dl2017/
* The official description logic homepage is at http://dl.kr.org/
