The International Journal on Semantic Web and Information Systems (IJSWIS) promotes a knowledge transfer channel where academics, practitioners, and researchers can discuss, analyze, criticize, synthesize, communicate, elaborate, and simplify the more-than-promising technology of the semantic Web in the context of information systems. The journal aims to establish value-adding knowledge transfer and personal development channels in three distinctive areas: academia, industry, and government.

The International Semantic Web Conference is a major international forum at which research on all aspects of the Semantic Web is presented. The Semantic Web Science Association Web, SWSA, is the Association that organizes the academic conferences on Semantic Web technology. If you would like to host the ISWC conference please submit an application to the president of the SWSA.

Motivation Educational Systems are gradually incorporating Semantic Web technology. The general purpose is to make the Web more understandable by machines and then generate educational systems that are more adaptable and intelligent.

"Antoniou, Grigoris and Van Harmelen, Frank. A semantic web primer. Second edition. Cambridge, MA: The MIT Press, 2008. " This is the second edition of the very popular primer that introduces the semantic Web. Explaining what the semantic Web is involves not only contrasting it to the familiar 'everyday' Web, but also sorting out the various visions of the semantic Web suggested over the last decade. Explaining how it works involves relating a thicket of angle-bracket technology to semantics and logic processing. This book is an excellent introduction to both of these explanations.

This document concerns the management of the output of insight generators, the software agents utilized in the insight generation systems. The solution to managing these reports involves the automatic creation of a repository for all materials generated by various insight generators; this repository allows the user to navigate through this continually growing space of marketing reports, gaining new insights about the relationships between items of interest and adding new insights in the process. The goal of the system is to make all marketing information and insights generated by the man/machine interaction available to the user, so that there is a convergence towards a "conservation of information". To use a geometric metaphor, the goal is to make the user equidistant from all information at all times, as illustrated below.

Traditionally, visitors to museums have been left having to choose between finding their way around exhibits on their own or taking a standardized group tour with a guide. In this paper, we describe a context-aware museum tour guide that adjusts its recommendations to the interests and contexts of individual visitors and enables them to selectively share their experience with others. The tour guide is built around an innovative semantic Web framework that minimizes the development and maintenance costs associated with the introduction of new exhibits, new visitor-oriented services and new sources of contextual information. In particular, it features a semantic Web rule reasoning engine that enables visitor-oriented services to identify relevant sources of contextual information and to enforce user-specified privacy preferences about what information they are willing to share with others (e.g. "only members of my group can see my current location", or "only my friends can see how I rate exhibits"). While still in prototype stage, the tour guide's target environment is the National Museum of Natural Science, one of Taiwan's largest museums with over 3 million visitors per year.

Thetus semantic solutions empower data-rich organizations in a broad range of industries to leverage the full potential of the knowledge that drives complex analysis and informed decision-making.

Calais enhances your content with rich semantic metadata. Using your content as a starting point, you can utilize Calais to automatically add metadata such as entities (people, places, organizations, etc.), facts (John Doe work for Acme Corporation as the CEO), and events (a natural disaster of type landslide happened on date x). That metadata is generated in industry-standard formats that ease integration with whatever commercial, open source or proprietary content management system you are using. Metadata in and of itself is not too interesting. Where things get more interesting is what you can do with it.

Judicial Arraignment Calendar (JAC) provides complete and accurate information to law enforcement booking agents regarding the criminal and civil history of sexual offenders / predators at the time of booking. Further, JAC automatically pushes this information to a Dashboard that acts as a judge's Arraignment Calendaring System, ensuring judges receive crucial and timely notification of a suspect's sexual offender/predator status and history, warrants, probation status, and other state statutes regarding known felons.
