Call for Papers
====================
DL 2017: the 30th International Workshop on Description Logics
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:
April 28, 2017
Paper submission deadline:
May 8, 2017
Notification of acceptance:
June 12, 2017
Camera-ready copies:
July 3, 2017
Workshop:
July 18-21, 2017

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.
Distinguished Student Paper Award
==========
As in recent years, the program committee may choose to award a Distinguished
Student Paper Award to the authors of a student paper, i.e., a paper that was
authored independently by researchers who have not received a doctoral degree
yet.
Student Grants
==========
A limited number of student grants will be available for participation in
DL 2017. Each grant will cover the student registration fee and may
additionally include a contribution towards travel costs. For details please
check https://project.inria.fr/dl2017/students/

==========
There are many tourists visiting Montpellier in July, so please make sure to
book your accommodation well in advance to ensure the best choice of options.
Even if you are not sure to attend the workshop, you may nonetheless want to
book a room in a hotel offering free cancellation.
