Graz, Austria, September 23-25, 2019<br class="">
<br class="">
The Joint Ontology WOrkshops (JOWO, <a href="https://www.iaoa.org/jowo/2019/" class="">https://www.iaoa.org/jowo/2019/</a>) is a venue of workshops that, together, address a wide spectrum of topics related to ontology research, ranging from Cognitive Science
to Knowledge Representation, Natural Language Processing, Artificial Intelligence, Logic, Philosophy, and Linguistics.<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
SCOPE<br class="">
Shape, form and structure are elusive notions and yet are at the core of several disciplines from the humanistic (like literature and the arts) to the scientific (chemistry, biology, physics) and within these from the formal (mathematics, logic) to the empirical
(engineering, cognitive science). These notions rely on common-sense meanings, everyday perception and communication practices. Furthermore, formalisations of the semantics and reasoning about shape, form, and structure are typically ad hoc.<br class="">
<br class="">
The Shapes workshop series is an interdisciplinary platform for the discussion of all topics connected to shape (broadly understood). Perspectives from psycho-linguistics, ontology, computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematics, aesthetics, design
science, cognitive science and beyond are welcome to contribute and participate in the workshop.<br class="">
<br class="">
Special Focus 2019: architecture<br class="">
Every edition of Shapes adds a special theme to drive attention to particular uses and needs in interesting areas. This edition drives attention to shape, form and structure in architecture. Architecture is an intrinsically interdisciplinary domain that combines
art, science and technology, and is rooted in the study of culture, landscape, territory and social practices. In addition to the regular SHAPES topics, we particularly encourage contributions that shed some light on the use of shape, form and structure in
and across architectural works and architectural ways of thinking.<br class="">
