Scope
The Special Session on Semantic Web Applications and Tools (SWAT) aims to assemble researchers and practitioners from diverse backgrounds together to present problems and solutions and to discuss the state-of-the-art in this area in order to try to identify a vision for future developments in the Semantic Web. Machine-readable metadata enabling automated agents and other software to access the Web more intelligently is growing exponentially every year. This is a rich interdisciplinary area that requires both innovative developments in the areas of knowledge representation including descriptive logics, using languages such as RDF or OWL, and web applications with a focus on interoperability, driven by the need to develop internet-based information systems with an explicit domain ontology. SWAT invites quality papers describing original research ideas and new findings on technological aspects of the semantic web, in particular papers describing methods, techniques, recent advances, applications and tools.

Scope
The Special Session on Web and Text Mining (WTM) is a forum for researchers and practitioners who are concerned with exploring large unstructured or semi-structured data repositories, such as webpages and emails, using intelligent tools that can be used to extract useful information, using technologies from diverse knowledge areas such as machine learning, pattern recognition, natural language processing or statistics, involving multi-dimensional document analysis.
Topics of interest include clustering and classification, using statistical or syntactic methods, semantic networks, fuzzy systems and inference, applied to knowledge discovery in unstructured documents, in any domain of application, such as business, biomedical, academic, for any purpose, such as web user profiling, recommender systems, email organization and processing, security, etc.
