CALL FOR PAPERS *** SUBMISSIONS NOW OPEN ***

3rd Workshop on Scripting for the Semantic Web
http://www.semanticscripting.org/SFSW2007/

co-located with
4th European Semantic Web Conference
June 6, 2007, Innsbruck, Austria

-------------------------------------------------------

Scripting languages such as PHP, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, Perl, JSP and
ActionScript are playing a central role in current development towards
flexible, lightweight web applications following the AJAX and REST
design paradigms. These languages are the tools of a generation of web
programmers who use them to quickly create server and client-side web
applications. Many deployed Semantic Web applications from the FOAF,
RSS/ATOM, blog and wiki communities, as well as many innovative mashups
from the Web 2.0 and Open Data movements are using scripting languages
and it is likely that the process of RDF-izing existing database-backed
websites, wikis, weblogs and CMS will largely rely on scripting languages.

The workshop aims to bring together developers of the RDF base
infrastructure for scripting languages with practitioners building
applications using these languages. Last years Scripting for the
Semantic Web workshop in Budva, Montenegro focused on giving an overview
about the support for Semantic Web technologies within scripting
languages. The special focus of this year's workshop is the role of
scripting languages in the process of populating the Web with linked RDF
data as well as to showcase innovative scripting applications that
consume RDF data from the Web. The second focus of the workshop is to
show how Web 2.0 applications and mashups can benefit from Semantic Web
technologies.

The workshop will include a scripting challenge (conducted for the 2nd
time) which will award a prize to the most innovative scripting application.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Infrastructure

Applications

Conceptual

Scripting Challenge

The workshop includes a scripting challenge which will award a prize (an
Apple iPod Video or alternatively Euro 200 cash) to the most innovative
small scripting application or mashup. The price is kindly sponsored by
T-Systems Multimedia Solutions GmbH. The application must be implemented
using a scripting language and Semantic Web technologies. It should
access, visualize or combine information from different sources in new
unforeseen ways. Authors of Scripting Challenge submissions are not
required to attend the workshop personally. Please refer to
http://www.semanticscripting.org/SFSW2007/challenge/ or personally Tom
Heath for further information about the Scripting Challenge.
