The posters and demonstrations track of ISWC 2010 continues the =
established
tradition of providing an interaction and connection opportunity for
researchers and practitioners to present and demonstrate their new and
innovative work-in-progress. The track gives conference attendees a way =
to=20
learn about novel on-going research projects that might not yet be =
complete,=20
but whose preliminary results are already interesting. The track also =
provides
presenters with an excellent opportunity to obtain feedback from their =
peers in
an informal setting from knowledgeable sources.

Full papers accepted for the Research and In-Use tracks are explicitly =
invited
to submit a poster or demo to the Posters and Demo track. The submission =
format
is the same as for the normal posters and demos but must cite the =
accepted full
paper and needs to include an explanation on what the Demo/Poster adds =
on top of
the conference presentation. Such added value could include:
a) extended results and experiments not presented in the conference =
paper
   for space reasons,
b) a demo of a supporting prototype implementation wherever software is
   available.
