DataValue 2018
The 1st Data Value Workshop will be co-located at the Semantics Conference in Vienna, and will take place on the 10th or 13th of September 2018 (to be confirmed).
Dialogue needs to be established with regard to the exploitation of data through the use of data governance, in order to initiate further innovation. Data has become an indispensable commodity. All data has a certain amount of value, and its use will result in a number of different impacts in different dimensions. Data Value Chains are being exploited as models that drive data exploitation and value creation initiatives, yet data value is not yet efficiently exploited. Any entity that uses data, including businesses, consultancies, or app developers, are not obtaining the highest benefits from the data. Data governance, defined as the exercise of authority and control over the management of data assets, is particularly relevant to extract value from heterogeneous, networked, federated, multi-modal data sources. Yet, the governance of data is a largely context-dependent, and a challenge in itself. This workshop has the purpose of bringing together all stakeholders who exploit data with the aim of creating awareness and further understanding of the untapped value that data can yield. This will aid in the advancement of the definition data value, metrics for the various data value dimensions, and standards, as well as the validation of existing models for data value.
The Program Committee of DataValue 2018 invites submissions in the broad areas of Data Value and Data Governance. Based on existing literature, we particularly identify the following open challenges:
- How can we represent and model data vaue?
- Can data value be quantified, and to what extent?
- Can data value be predicted?
- How does data governance affect data exploitation?
Areas of interest include, but are not restricted to:
Data Exploitation | Data Value Chains/Networks |
Data Value Models | Standards |
Metrics | Use Cases |
Best Practices | Data Value Quantification |
Impacts | Data Governance Platforms |
Important Dates

Instructions to Authors
All accepted submissions will be presented at the workshop and published in the CEUR workshop proceedings series. At least one author of each submission will be required to register for, and attend, the conference. All submissions should be made using the EasyChair system here.
We envision three types of submissions in order to cover the entire spectrum from mature research papers to novel ideas/datasets and industry technical talks:
- Research Papers (max 10 pages), presenting novel scientific research addressing the topics of the workshop;
- Position Papers, Demo papers and System and Dataset descriptions (max 5 pages), encouraging papers describing significant work in progress, late breaking results or ideas of the domain, as well as functional systems or datasets relevant to the community;
- Industry and Use Case Presentations (max 5 pages), in which industry experts can present and discuss practical solutions, use case prototypes, best practices, etc., in any stage of implementation.
Proceedings should follow the guidelines of the Elsevier Procedia Computer Science format. Templates for Word and Latex are available here; further details are available here.
