Abstract registration deadline | June 16, 2021 |
Submission deadline | June 23, 2021 |
The DL workshop is the major annual event of the description logic research community. It is the forum in which those interested in description logics, both from academia and industry, meet to discuss ideas, share information and compare experiences. For more information on the DL workshop, see http://dl.kr.org/dl2021.
Submission Guidelines
Submissions may be of two types:
A Regular papers of up to 11 pages (excluding references).
B Abstracts of up to 2 pages (excluding references).
Both regular papers and abstracts must be formatted using the Springer LNCS style with the correct fonts and submitted via: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dl2021
Submissions of type A must contain enough substance that it can be cited in other publications and may not have appeared before. A clearly marked appendix with additional proofs and evaluation data may be included.
Submissions of type B may optionally include a clearly marked appendix with additional proofs, evaluation data, or extended version of your paper, which was accepted at another conference or which you submitted or plan to submit to another conference. In the latter case the abstract should specify where the paper has been accepted or is under review.
The appendix will be read at the discretion of the reviewers and will not be included in the proceedings. The appendix does not need to be in LNCS format.
List of Topics
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, modularisation, ontology extraction, abductive and inductive reasoning
* Extensions of description logics:
closed-world and non-monotonic 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, explanations, planning, Semantic Web, cloud computing, conceptual modeling, web services, business processes, practical experiences, case studies, feasibility studies
* Systems and tools of all kinds around description logics:
reasoners, ontology editors, ontology alignment, ontology extraction, other support for ontology development, database schema design, query rewriting/answering/optimization, data integration, implementation and optimization techniques, benchmarking, evaluation, modelling
