2nd Workshop on Collective Intelligence in Semantic Web 
and Social Networks (CISWSN 2008)

http://www.iit.pwr.wroc.pl/~krzysiek/CISWSN.htm

co-located with IEEE/WIC/ACM Joint International Conference on 
Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology 2008,
Sydney, Australia, 9-12 December 2008
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Semantic web environment has been evolving. Its emerging environment is 
characterised by intensive collaboration, cooperation and knowledge processing 
activities with formation of complex social and economical networks in 
the background. Various knowledge processing techniques are being used 
to address data portability and Web information discovery problems. 
Collective intelligence is a key issue to collaboratively share knowledge 
and even generate new knowledge. Many Web 2.0 platforms (e.g., blogs and 
wikis) have been developed to exchange meaningful information and support 
user-centered tasks on a variety of domains (e.g., e-learning, e-commerce, 
and e-government). Local knowledge is annotated into a large repositories 
of content including not only simple documents but also multimedia data. 
For example, collaborative tagging (e.g., del.icio.us) can play an important 
role in knowledge (or information) sharing between people on social networks. 
Modelling the dynamics and evolution of such complex systems, involving 
knowledge processing with intelligent information agents acting on behalf 
of thousands of users, is a new and promising research area with many 
practical applications.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners 
in areas of knowledge and intelligence, semantics, agents and grid computing 
to share their visions, research achievements and solutions, to resolve the 
challenge issues and to establish worldwide cooperative research and development. 
We also want to provide a platform for discussing research topics underlying the 
concepts of Social Semantics for Linked Data by contacting members of different 
communities that share the common interest on social semantic collaborative 
intelligence on the web for developing methods and tools: - Semantic Web 
researchers who use social semantic techniques for modeling collaboration 
and intelligence on the web. - Members of the Linked Open Data initiative who 
provide means for publishing and using linked open data on the web. - Members 
of the Intelligent Agent community who develop agents and algorithms for 
collaboration and intelligence on the web.

This will give an opportunity to push further the discussion upon the 
potential of social semantic collaborative intelligence across these communities.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Potential participants are invited to submit full papers, not exceeding 
4 pages in length, using the IEEE Computer Society's 2-column conference 
proceedings format. The formatting instructions and author guidelines can 
be found at http://www.computer.org/portal/pages/ieeecs/publications.

The manuscripts should be submitted electronically using the WI-IAT 2008 
Cyberchair electronic submission system. Each submission will be reviewed 
by at least two program committee members.

PROCEEDINGS AND POST-WORKSHOP PUBLICATIONS

Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by the IEEE 
Computer Society Press that is indexed by EI. In addition, extended versions 
of selected papers may be published in chosen prospective journals or in an 
edited book (TBA): 
- International Journal of Intelligent Information and Database Systems 
- Journal of Universal Computer Science 
- International Journal of Virtual Communities and Social Networking
A number of papers will be selected to be published in a special issue of 
Computing and Informatics journal.
