如果你对语义网推理技术有一些新的思路新的想法， 欢迎你投论文给将在今年十二月份在泰国召开的第二届国际语义网推理新方法学术会议（NEFORS2008， Second International Workshop: "New forms of reasoning for the Semantic Web: scaleable, tolerant and dynamic"）。
我们鼓励一切对语义网推理技术提出新思路的论文，你可以大胆展开思路，提出一切可能的技术与方法。我们特别鼓励年轻的学子使用科学的论证方法提出新创意。
下面只是部分感兴趣的问题， 比如说，
如何有效地组织和存储海量（数十亿级以上）语义数据（如RDF三元组）使之能够非常有效地进行推理？
如果有效地处理不一致性的海量语义数据的技术？
如何有效地处理动态的实时变化的海量语义数据？
能否提出一个新的逻辑系统它不必在逻辑上是完备的(complete)的，但能有效地应用于海量语义数据的推理？
如何在语义推理技术中引入语用的思想，能够从使用者的角度动态地调整推理策略和表达数据等？
如何采用接近推理的技术，使得推理的结果不必每次都是绝对正确，但都是比较接近正确的结论？
等等，等等。。。
有关NEFORS2008国际会议的详细内容请见下列网站的具体通知：http://nefors08.larkc.eu
我们将挑选部分高质量的优秀论文，出版在一个国际学术刊物的专辑上。目前语义网领域的顶级期刊Journal of Web Semantics已经同我们联系了。
如果你对本国际学术会议感兴趣的话，我将在近期进一步解答你的提问。
========================= CALL FOR PAPERS =========================
Second International Workshop: "New forms of reasoning for the Semantic Web: scaleable, tolerant and dynamic"
http://nefors08.larkc.eu
Co-located with the 3rd Asian Semantic Web Conference (ASWC 2008) http://www.aswc2008.org/
Pathumthani, Thailand, 8th-11th December 2008
===================================================================
Workshop Objectives
===================
The Semantic Web is the vision of a Web of data usable for both humans but also
machines. This web, consists of inter-connected instance data annotated with possibly
expressive ontologies. Therefore a tremendous amount of information becomes available
that should be processed based on formal semantics attached to it. The Semantic Web
community has developed a number of languages (such as RDF, RDF Schema, OWL) that
deploy logic for this purpose. Impressive progress has been made on scalable storage,
querying and inference for these languages, and they are successfully being deployed on
large intranets and medium-scale web-applications.
However existing reasoning techniques often fail to live up to the expectations put into
them in this context. They can often neither deal with high number of instances, the
expressiveness of the ontologies describing them or the inherent inconsistency and
incompleteness of data on the Web.
This workshop is intended to focus on these problems of scalability and robustness of
reasoning on the Web, and furthermore to investigate alternative reasoning methods,
which take incompleteness and distribution of data and knowledge as inherent
properties into account.
NeForS08 is the follow-up of the first international workshop on "New forms of reasoning
for the Semantic Web: scalable, tolerant and dynamic", which took place in Busan,
Korea in November 2007 and was co-located with the 6th International Semantic Web
Conference (ISWC 2007) and 2nd Asian Semantic Web Conference (ASWC 2007).
Topics of Interest
==================
We welcome all research contributions that address one or more of the following topics:
* Reasoning for the Web
* Querying and searching
* Scalability to the Web level
* Efficient storage of structured data that scale to a very large size
We also aim to attract participants from scientific fields not typically seen at Semantic Web events:
* Economics can tell us about cost-benefit trade-off models, sunk-cost theory and the
role of negotiation in obtaining near-optimal results under bounded resources
* Cognitive Science can tell us about strategies of human memory and human reasoning
which is so succesful in reaching good enough conclusion in limited time-spans, using methods such as priming, attention scoping, recency-based self-optimising memory, etc.
* Computational Learning Theory has contributions to make with their notions of Probably
Approximately Correct (PAC) computing, and strategies for abstraction and compression
of information.
* Combinatorial Search has made recent breakthroughs in handling massive search-spaces
with heuristics based on Monte Carlo simulations.
Event Information
=================
The workshop will take place during the 3rd Asian Semantic Web Conference (ASWC2008) as a full-day event.
It will be organized as a full day event and include an invited talk by Kyung-il Tony Lee, president and CEO of Saltlux Inc. on the industrial view on semantic technologies and
the need for large-scale reasoning.
Please note that for every accepted paper at least one of the authors must attend the
workshop and must register for the workshop and the main conference.
Submission of a paper is not required for attendance at the workshop. However, in the
event that the workshop cannot accommodate all who would like to participate, those
who have submitted a paper will be given
priority.
Submissions
===========
The workshop invites full papers (up to 15 pages) as well as short papers (up to 5
pages). All contributions will be peer reviewed by the program commitee (see
http://nefors08.larkc.eu) and accepted submissions will be published in a dedicated book.
The number of accepted papers will be kept deliberately low in order to leave sufficient
time for discussion after presentations.
Additionally we are considering a special issue in a journal on semantic computing for
extended versions of selected, high quality submissions.
Submitted papers must be written in English and one of the following format must be
used for the first submission: PDF, PS, DOC. For submissions please follow LNCS formatting instructions (see
http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-2-72376-0 for details) to
prepare your paper and consider using the camera ready format even for the first
submission.
Furthermore papers need to be submitted electronically through the EasyChair using the
following link:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences?conf=nefors08
Important Dates
===============
* September 15, 2008: Submission of papers
* September 30, 2008: Notification of acceptance
* October 15, 2008: Camera-ready version due
* December 8, 2008: Workshop
