Research and Innovation Track
The Research and Innovation track at SEMANTiCS 2022 EU welcomes papers on novel scientific research and/or innovations relevant to the topics of the conference. Submissions must be original and must not have been submitted for publication elsewhere unless available as preprints. Papers must follow the guidelines given in the author instructions, including references and optional appendices. Each submission will be reviewed by several PC members who will judge it based on its innovativeness, technical merits, and effectiveness at solving real problems.
Important Dates
- Abstract Submission Deadline: May 09, 2022 (11:59 pm, Hawaii time)
- Paper Submission Deadline: May 16, 2022 (11:59 pm, Hawaii time)
- Notification of Acceptance: June 20, 2022 (11:59 pm, Hawaii time)

Proceedings of SEMANTiCS 2022 EU will be made available open access published by IOS Press (https://www.iospress.com/).
Poster & Demo Track
The Posters & Demonstrations Track invites innovative work in progress, late-breaking research and innovation results, and smaller contributions in all fields related to the (broadly understood) Semantic Web. These include submissions on innovative applications, latest results, unpublished ideas, prototypes of semantic technologies and their use in various domains as well as applications, use cases or pieces of code that may attract developers and potential research or business partners. This also concerns new datasets made publicly available.
Important Dates

Author Guidelines and Submission
- Accepted contributions to the Research and Innovation Track will be published by IOS Press in the Studies on Semantic Web series. Submissions should follow the author guidelines available here: https://www.iospress.com/book-article-instructions
- Accepted contributions to the Poster & Demos Track will be published by CEUR workshop proceedings. Submissions should follow the author guidelines available here: https://ceurws.wordpress.com/2020/03/31/ceurws-publishes-ceurart-paper-style/
- All papers and abstracts have to be submitted electronically via Easychair: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sem22#
- Submissions must be in English.
- Submissions are not anonymous.
- At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper.
- To facilitate reproducibility and give peer-reviewers a characterization of a submission by juxtaposing it with related approaches we encourage you to accompany your paper submission with an ORKG comparison in the Open Research Knowledge Graph (https://orkg.org). More information on the background and how to create an ORKG comparison can be found here: https://www.orkg.org/orkg/help-center/article/38/Accompany_your_paper_submission_with_an_ORKG_comparisonIn the submission process, you will have the opportunity to submit the link to your comparison to the peer-reviewers.
- The Research and Innovation Track will not accept papers that, at the time of submission, are under review or have already been published in or accepted for publication in a journal or another conference. Preprints are accepted.
- Please consult the detailed version of the call for papers at https://2022-eu.semantics.cc/cfp for track-specific instructions
Review and Evaluation Criteria
Each submission will be reviewed by several PC members. The reviewing process is single-blind. Papers submitted to this track will be evaluated according to the following criteria:
- Appropriateness
- Originality, novelty, and innovativeness
- Impact of results
- Soundness of the evaluation
- Proper comparison to related work
- Clarity and quality of writing
- Reproducibility of results and resources
We are looking forward to your contribution!
About SEMANTiCS Conference
Since 2005, the annual SEMANTiCS conference has been the meeting place for professionals, innovators and researchers who push the boundaries of semantic computing and who understand its benefits and encounter its limitations.
SEMANTiCS addresses problems common among information managers, software engineers, IT-architects and various specialist departments working to develop, implement and/or evaluate semantic software systems. The SEMANTiCS program is a rich mix of technical talks, panel discussions of important topics and presentations by people who make things work - either as practitioners or researchers. Attendees can network with experts in a variety of fields. These relationships provide great value to organisations as they encounter subtle technical issues in any stage of implementation. The expertise gained by SEMANTiCS attendees has a long-term impact on their careers and organisations. These factors make SEMANTiCS the major outreach event to semantic technologies across Europe, the United States and beyond.
