First issue Semantic Web journal published

By R&D Editors | December 14, 2010

First issue Semantic Web journal published

IOS Press is happy to announce the first issue of the Semantic Web journal has been published. The online version of the journal is freely accessible.

“The Semantic Web is here to stay – and to grow. The Semantic Web is multidisciplinary and heterogeneous. Many Semantic Web researchers maintain close ties to neighbouring disciplines which provide methods or application areas for their work. However, the Semantic Web has now established itself as a research field in its own rights. Consequently, a growing number of researchers, in particular those of the second or third generation, seem to identify themselves with the Semantic Web as their primary field of work. The growing number of top quality events dedicated to Semantic Web topics is also a clear indication of this trend. Another indicator is the increasing interweavement of Semantic Web methods into related disciplines leading to research topics such as geospatial semantics, the Semantic Sensor Web, semantic desktop, or work on cultural heritage,” say Editors-in-Chief Pascal Hitzler and Krzysztof Janowicz in their first editorial.

The first issue of the Semantic Web journal contains vision statements by the members of the Editorial Board. While these contributions were essentially invited, they nevertheless underwent the full, open, and transparent review process of the journal in order to improve quality and clarity. Their publication on the journal’s webpage already led to comments and open reviews from external researchers. The resulting collection is an impressive compilation of topics of core concern to the Semantic Web community.

About the journal

The journal Semantic Web – Interoperability, Usability, Applicability (1570-0844) is an international and interdisciplinary journal bringing together researchers from various fields which share the vision and need for more effective and meaningful ways to share information across agents and services on the future Internet and elsewhere.

As such, Semantic Web technologies shall support the seamless integration of data, on-the-fly composition and interoperation of Web services, as well as more intuitive search engines. The semantics – or meaning – of information, however, cannot be defined without a context, which makes personalization, trust and provenance core topics for Semantic Web research.

New retrieval paradigms, user interfaces and visualization techniques have to unleash the power of the Semantic Web and at the same time hide its complexity from the user. Based on this vision, the journal welcomes contributions ranging from theoretical and foundational research over methods and tools to descriptions of concrete ontologies and applications in all areas. Papers which add a social, spatial and temporal dimension to Semantic Web research, as well as application-oriented papers making use of formal semantics, are especially welcome.

The Semantic Web journal relies on an open and transparent review process.
