Ontologies, Description Logics, automatic reasoning, OWL, RDF etc. are terms and acronyms which are circulating more and more
in technical literature. Only a few people can precisely understand their meaning, and even fewer know exactly to which environment
these terms refer.
The target of this convention is to shed a light on this field of Computing concerning knowledge representation
in text form and its use for realizing applications with automatic deductive facilities.
A new Computer science, base on
formal logic and semantics, is growing rapidly thanks to the interest in the Semantic Web theorized by Tim Berners-Lee.
This convention sheds light on this fascinating field, offering disseminating moments, scientific efforts and practical examples
proposed by Italian and foreign scientists and by experts in this field.
A communicative moment of important significance,
committed to introducing the advantages this technology can offer in the field of Communication on the Web to managers of the Italian
Public Administration as well as in applicative integration and automatic treatment of Information.
Description Logics
is a field where Italian science has the edge on the world and its industrial operators offer competence and resources of
great value.
