We apologize for multiples copies. Please circulate this CFP among your students and colleagues   Call for Papers The First International Workshop on Data and Semantic Engineering for Emerging Technology and Services ( DASE2008 ) http://ist.kunsan.ac.kr/DASE2008/ Submission Deadline:  June 30, 2008 11~13 November 2008, Novotel Ambassador Busan, Busan, Korea (Conjunction with ICCIT2008 ) Overview The purpose of the First International Workshop on Data and Semantic Engineering for Emerging Technology and Services ( DASE2008 ) is to find out and discuss issues and possible solutions to address efficient management, usability, reliability, security, flexibility, scalability, and extensibility of data and semantics for emerging technology and services. Advanced research applications for DASE include Semantic Grid, semantic GIS, semantic sensor networking, and semantic social networking including the Semantic Web. DASE also includes all challenges for management of data, context, metadata, semantics, applications, and services under pervasive computing, ad-hoc/wireless sensor network, and ubiquitous computing environments. Overview and Scope The purpose of the First International Workshop on Data and Semantic Engineering for Emerging Technology and Services (DASE2008) is to find out and discuss issues and possible solutions to address efficient management, usability, reliability, security, flexibility, scalability, and extensibility of data and semantics for emerging technology and services.

DASE also includes all challenges for management of data, context, metadata, semantics, applications, and services under pervasive computing, ad-hoc/wireless sensor network, and ubiquitous computing environments. Topics Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. The topics include the following, but not limited to: Ontology building and management for DASE Learning and population for DASE Reasoning algorithms Semantic-based query processing for DASE Semantic description and representation for DASE     Semantic description languages for DASE Semantic application frameworks for DASE Effective storage models for DASE Semantic data models and modeling for DASE Human-friendly creation and visualization of semantics Methodologies for SOA-based semantic services Privacy and access control for DASE Security and robustness for DASE Semantic and ontology modeling methods Semantic-based software engineering Metamodel for management of data, metadata, and properties between them. System architectures and frameworks, and simulations Case-studies for DASE New issues and applications for DASE Other relevant issues on the DASE applications and computing environments Proceedings/Special Issues on International Journal The DASE2008 proceedings will be published by the IEEE and will be indexed in both EI and ISTP. Selected good papers will be recommended for publication in SSCI/SCI/SCI-E indexed international journals. 1. Proceedings (Pending): All accepted papers for IEEE CS proceeding will be published by IEEE CS series and will also be indexed by EI. 2. A selected number of the accepted papers will be invited for expanding and revising for possible inclusion in special issues for the international journals (SCI, SCI(E), SSCI). Selected papers will be published by SCI listed eminent international journals !      - Information Sciences (SCI, Elsevier)      - IJTM (SSCI & SCI(E), Inderscience)      - JUCS (SCI(E), Graz University of Tech.)      - IJVD (SCI(E), Inderscience)      - Soft Computing (SCI-indexed, SS3: Soft Computed Behavior Science) Important Dates        Submission Deadline: June 30, 2008 Acceptance Notification: July 10, 2008 Camera-ready: July 31, 2008 Workshop Date: November 11-13, 2008 Organizing Committee <> Steering Co-Chairs        Dongwon Jeong, Kunsan National University, Korea       Doo-Kwon Baik, Korea University, Korea <> General Co-Chairs      Changhwa Kim, Kangnung National University, Korea <> Program Co-Chairs      Byung-Won On, University of British Columbia, Canada      Moonbae Song, University of Tsukuba, Japan <> Publicity Co-Chairs       Yangfan He, Wuhan University, China         Young-Gab Kim, National Institute for Lifelong Education, Korea Contact Prof. Dongwon Jeong        - Kunsan National University        - withimp@gmail.com          - +82-63-469-4617 Ms. Hyejin Jeong        - DASE2008 Secretariat          - secretariat.ist.knu@gmail.com        - +82-63-469-4611 Best Regards, Dongwon Jeong, Ph.D. Steering co-chair of DASE2008, Professor, Kunsan National University withimp@gmail.com
