******************************************************************

The International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (RR)
is a

major forum for discussion and dissemination of new results
concerning

Web Reasoning and Rule Systems.

RR 2015 is colocated with the following events:

- The 25th International Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE
2015).

Berlin, Germany, August 1 - August 7, 2015.

== DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM ==

RR 2015 also hosts a doctoral consortium, which will provide PhD

students with an opportunity to present and discuss their research

directions, to be involved in discussions on the state-of-the-art

research, and to establish fruitful collaborations. In particular,
the

doctoral consortium will include a mentoring lunch and a poster
session,

organized jointly with the 9th International Web Rule Symposium
(RuleML

2015). Further details on the RR doctoral consortium will be

communicated by means of a separate Call for Papers, as well as on
the

RR 2015 website.

== TOPICS AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ==

The scale and the heterogenous nature of web data poses many
challenges,

and turns basic tasks such as query answering and data
transformations

into complex reasoning problems. Rule-based systems have found many

applications in this area. The RR conference welcomes original
research

from all areas of Web Reasoning and Rule Systems. Topics of
particular

interest are:

- Rule-based languages for intelligent information access and for
the

semantic web

- Ontology-based data access

- Data management, and data interoperability for web data

- Distributed agent-based systems for the web

- Scalability and expressive power of logics for the semantic web

- Reasoning with incomplete, inconsistenct and uncertain data

- Non-monotonic, commonsense, and closed-world reasoning for web
data

- Constraint programming, inductive logic programming for web data

- Streaming data and complex event processing

- Rule-based approaches to machine learning, knowledge extraction
and

information retrieval

- Rule-based approaches to natural language processing

- System descriptions, applications and experiences

There are two submission formats:

- Full papers (up to 15 pages in LNCS style)

- Technical Communications (up to 6 pages in LNCS style)

Submitted full papers should present original and significant
research

results. They must not substantially overlap with papers that have
been

published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a

conference/workshop with formal proceedings. Double submission to a

workshop with informal proceedings is allowed, like for instance the
DL

2014 workshop.

Technical communications are intended for promising but

possibly preliminary work, position papers, system descriptions, and

applications descriptions (which may be accompanied by a demo).

The conference proceedings will be published by Springer in the
Lecture

Notes in Computer Science series (LNCS), and all submissions must be

prepared in Springer's LaTeX style llncs

( http://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/Authors.html ).

Submissions are now open via EasyChair:

https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rr2015

== IMPORTANT DATES ==

- NEW Title and Abstract submission: March 11, 2015

- NEW Full papers submission: March 18, 2015

- Notification of acceptance: April 15, 2015

- Camera-ready submission: May 15, 2015

For each of these deadlines, a cut-off point of 23:59 AOE (anywhere
on

earth) applies.

== BEST PAPER AND BEST STUDENT PAPER AWARDS ==

Awards for Best Paper and Best Student Paper will be presented to
the

corresponding author(s) at the conference. The best student paper
will

be selected among the ones mainly only by students (i.e., authors a
PhD

as of the paper submission deadline). To qualify for the Best
Student

Paper award, the authors must indicate their eligibility upon
submission

at easychair. The program committee reserves the right to not give
out a

Best Student Paper award, or to split the award among multiple
submissions.
