Description
The Journal of Web Semantics is an interdisciplinary journal based on research and applications of various subject areas that
contribute to the development of a knowledge-intensive and intelligent service Web. These areas include: knowledge technologies, ontology,
agents, databases and the semantic grid, obviously disciplines like information retrieval, language technology, human-computer interaction
and knowledge discovery are of major relevance as well. All aspects of the Semantic Web development are covered. The publication of large-scale
experiments and their analysis is also encouraged to clearly illustrate scenarios and methods that introduce semantics into existing
Web interfaces, contents and services. The journal emphasizes the publication of papers that combine theories, methods and experiments
from different subject areas in order to deliver innovative semantic methods and applications.
The Journal of Web Semantics
addresses various prominent application areas including:
e-business, e-community, knowledge management, e-learning, digital libraries
and e-sciences.
The Journal of Web Semantics publishes high quality papers that cover theoretical issues, methods, tools,
system descriptions and applications. Papers should be normal journal-length or short, descriptive papers e.g. systems or applications.
Special sections will cover conference and workshop reports as well as book reviews.
The Journal of Web Semantics features
a multi-purpose web site, which can be found at:  http://www.semanticwebjournal.org/. Accepted papers are immediately available
online (associated with appropriate metadata) and readers are able to annotate documents with additional comments and links to related
material. The unique character of the journal makes it possible to extend the scope beyond traditional journals. Open-source software
and tools that help to advance the field more rapidly, will be published and demonstrated based on a rigorous review and selection process.
Submissions are especially encouraged that demonstrate the amalgamation of papers and code-content that goes beyond the range of traditional
print journals.
The web site itself is also available to interested researchers as a test site for developing and refining Semantic
Web technologies and for conduction of user studies (please contact the Online Editor-in-Chief for further information).
