Everyone, <br>
<br>
We have the green light to go ahead and work on a special edition of
the journal of Applied Ontology, which will be based on the outcomes
of the 2014 Ontology Summit. <br>
<br>
I've updated the draft Call for Papers, based on feedback from the
Journal editors. Below is the current draft. <br>
<br>
Please feel free to make any final comments and additions. We will
sign off on the final version at our monthly call on Monday 3 August
and will then start to publicise it. <br>

<p>The IAOA Semantic Web Applied Ontology
(SWAO) Special
Interest Group [<a href="http://www.iaoa.org/sig/swao/" target="_blank">http://www.iaoa.org/sig/swao/</a>] welcomes the
submission of
papers focusing on the role of ontologies in the areas of Linked
Data and the
Semantic Web, and their possible applications in Big Data. Our
goal is to
collect a diverse set of papers concerned with the use of
ontologies in support
of these areas. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p>Types of submissions sought include: <u></u><u></u></p>

<p><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p>We are looking for papers that address the

We especially welcome papers that show how more rigorous and
principled ontologies
based on ontological analysis may be of help for the Semantic Web,
the Linked
Data, and the Big Data communities. <u></u><u></u></p>
