ILOG 2018 is the 10th workshop in a series which focuses on approaches, methods, technologies and solution for reducing information overflow and for improving information flow in organizations. Knowledge-intensive industry and service sectors, public organizations and governmental bodies are dependent on accurate and timely information supply for efficient and high quality processes and services. Intelligent information supply has become an important issue that is characterized by just-in-time, demand-oriented and context-sensitive information. A specific focus of this year’s ILOG edition will be on digitization. Digitization is a topic frequently discussed in the public both from a technological and societal perspective. The term digitization as such describes the massive use of latest development in ICT, such as Internet-of-Things, mobile communication, sensors, machine learning, self-organizing systems and big data for a fusion of real-world objects and processes, and their virtual representation. This is supposed to lead to new products and services, new business models and more efficient operations in enterprises and organizations.
The digitization of businesses poses new requirements to optimized information supply and emphasizes the importance of information logistics solutions. In this context, we invite papers addressing these requirements and potential solution and we also encourage submission addressing the use semantic technologies, like ontologies, semantic nets, semantic web standards and other knowledge technologies. Such technologies and related methods have proven to be an important of information logistics and knowledge supply solutions. Many information logistics applications wouldn’t be feasible without moving from data processing to also interpreting the meaning of this data.
The ILOG workshop aims to bring together people who have strong interest in semantic technologies, information systems, information logistics, enterprise solutions and knowledge-based systems. We invite researchers and practitioners from both industry and academia to submit original results of their completed or ongoing projects. We encourage broad understanding of possible approaches and solutions for information logistics and applications of semantic technologies.
