The paper presents statistical findings from an online survey conducted among Semantic Web specialists from science and industry. It provides the reader with a brief overview over current trends and possible future topics from the perspective of research-oriented and application-oriented...

This paper discusses how to resolve knowledge gap between the business process models and the ontological models as a way to semantic interoperability among both enterprise engineering and knowledge engineering. The complexity of such a problem is reflected in the range from improving semantic...

Whatever purpose models are created for, they need to be evaluated in order to ensure that they will serve their intended use. Unfortunately, model evaluation is a significant effort and no standard clear-cut evaluation methodology exists today. In this work we introduce our approach of...

State-of-the-art business process management tools provide only limited support for weakly-structured scientific workflow processes which involve knowledge intensive human interactions and are subject to frequent changes and agile compensations and exceptions. In order to address these...

In this paper we present a review of systems that follow the novel paradigm of Social Semantic Bookmarking. Social semantic bookmarking allows for the annotation of resources with tags extended by semantic definitions and descriptions that also evolve (collaboratively) within the same system. We...

The emergence of the Web2.0, Web services and the Semantic Web, have changed the WWW to an open interactive market. Heterogeneous and distributed information prosumers have to integrate data and to coordinate activities. This calls for novel middleware solutions that are compliant with the...

This paper proposes a collaborative approach to aspects of IT service management (ITSM) for agile information technology landscapes composed of technically knowledgeable users and fast changing requirements. The cost-intensive and timeconsuming tasks of building and maintaining a configuration...

With the emerging trend ofWeb 3.0 and the resulting huge amount of usergenerated semantically-enriched data, improved ways of knowledge visualization and human computer interaction are needed. We present several techniques of visualizing particularly spatial knowledge in largely scalable, clear...
