The two-volume set LNCS 9366 and 9367 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Semantic Web Conference, ISWC 2015, held in Bethlehem, PA, USA, in October 2015. The International Semantic Web Conference is the premier forum for Semantic Web research, where cutting edge scientific results and technological innovations are presented, where problems and solutions are discussed, and where the future of this vision is being developed. It brings together specialists in fields such as artificial intelligence, databases, social networks, distributed computing, Web engineering, information systems, human-computer interaction, natural language processing, and the social sciences. The papers cover topics such as querying with SPARQL; querying linked data; linked data; ontology-based data access; ontology alignment; reasoning; instance matching, entity resolution and topic generation; RDF data dynamics; ontology extraction and generation; knowledge graphs and scientific data publication; ontology instance alignment; knowledge graphs; data processing, IoT, sensors; archiving and publishing scientific data; I oT and sensors; experiments; evaluation; and empirical studies. Part 1 (LNCS 9366) contains a total of 38 papers which were presented in the research track. They were carefully reviewed and selected from 172 submissions. Part 2 (LNCS 9367) contains 14 papers from the in-use and software track, 8 papers from the datasets and ontologies track, and 7 papers from the empirical studies and experiments track, selected, respectively, from 33, 35, and 23 submissions.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Satellite Events of the 15th Extended Semantic Web Conference, ESWC 2018, held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece, in June 2018. The volume contains 41 poster and demonstration papers, 11 invited workshop papers, and 9 full papers, selected out of a total of 70 submissions. They deal with all areas of semantic web research, semantic technologies on the Web and Linked Data.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th Conference on Knowledge Engineering and the Semantic Web, KESW 2015, held in Moscow, Russia, in September/October 2015.The 17 revised full papers presented together with 6 short system descriptions were carefully reviewed andselected from 35 submissions. The papers address research issues related to semantic web, linked data, ontologies, natural language processing, knowledge representation.

Semantic systems lie at the heart of modern computing, interlinking with areas as diverse as AI, data science, knowledge discovery and management, big data analytics, e-commerce, enterprise search, technical documentation, document management, business intelligence, enterprise vocabulary management, machine learning, logic programming, content engineering, social computing, and the Semantic Web. This book presents the proceedings of SEMANTiCS 2022, the 18th International Conference on Semantic Systems, held as a hybrid event – live in Vienna, Austria and online – from 12 to 15 September 2022. The SEMANTiCS conference is an annual meeting place for the professionals and researchers who make semantic computing work, who understand its benefits and encounter its limitations, and is attended by information managers, IT architects, software engineers, and researchers from organizations ranging from research facilities and NPOs, through public administrations to the largest companies in the world. The theme and subtitle of the 2022 conference was Towards A Knowledge-Aware AI, and the book contains 15 papers, selected on the basis of quality, impact and scientific merit following a rigorous review process which resulted in an acceptance rate of 29%. The book is divided into four chapters: semantics in data quality, standards and protection; representation learning and reasoning for downstream AI tasks; ontology development; and learning over complementary knowledge. Providing an overview of emerging trends and topics in the wide area of semantic computing, the book will be of interest to anyone involved in the development and deployment of computer technology and AI systems.
