============================

14th International Conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems
(FOIS 2024)

15-19 July 2024 (Enschede, Netherlands) - 08-09 July 2024 (online)

Website: https://www.utwente.nl/en/eemcs/fois2024/

Call for Ontology Showcase, Demonstrations, Journal-First papers

Submission deadlines: 17 April 2024

============================

Call for Ontology Showcase

Paper submission: 17 April 2024

Webpage: https://www.utwente.nl/en/eemcs/fois2024/calls/showcase/

============================

The Ontology Showcase at FOIS gives authors the opportunity to increase the
impact of their work, get early feedback from the community on ongoing
work, and promote the sharing and the reuse of curated high-quality
ontologies.

Differentiation from the Main Track

If an ontology is the result of a mature work and provides a solid
scientific contribution in terms of, e.g., requirements, foundational
issues, methodology, design choices, application or evaluation, then it is
suitable to be submitted to the domain ontology track of the main conference
<https://www.utwente.nl/en/eemcs/fois2024/calls/#submission-types> as a
full research paper (max 14 pages) that will be published by IOS Press.

The ontology showcase is a practical track aimed at stimulating the
community to share their ontologies, make them more visible and get (early)
feedback, even if their development is still an ongoing or early work that
does not provide a mature scientific contribution suitable to be submitted
(yet) to the main track.

Submission types

Ontology showcase submissions may take either of two forms:

   -

   Short papers (5-9 pages, including bibliography)
   -

   Full papers (10-14 pages, including bibliography)

Accepted papers will be published in a joint CEUR proceedings volume in the
IAOA series, together with those of the Joint Ontology Workshops (JOWO) and
other events collocated with FOIS 2024.

Important dates

Paper submission: 17 April 2024

Notification of acceptance: 15 May 2024

Author registration: 03 June 2024

Online conference: 08-09 July 2024

Onsite conference (Enschede): 15-19

============================

Call for Demonstrations

Submissions due: 17 April 2024

Website:
https://www.utwente.nl/en/eemcs/fois2024/calls/demos/#definition-and-scope

============================

The demonstration track complements FOIS 2024 full-length paper main tracks
by offering an interactive platform for authors to present and discuss
their work. We invite demonstrations of tools and methods developed using
ontologies, as well as those to create, maintain, integrate, publish,
evaluate, and implement ontologies. We also invite demonstrations of novel
ontology (anti)patterns and of challenges arising in the ontology
engineering life cycle. The goal is to raise the visibility and foster
understanding of the dynamic, integrative, and use-oriented aspects of
applied ontology, its tools, and its uses.

We encourage the demonstrations of software tools, patterns, methods, and
languages reported in papers accepted for the main tracks. For example, a
novel ontology engineering method proposed in a full-length paper in the
Application and Methods track can be complemented by demonstrating the
method.

Demonstration submissions may take either of two forms:

   -

   Short papers (5-9 pages, including bibliography)
   -

   Full papers (10-14 pages, including bibliography).

Accepted papers will be published in a joint CEUR proceedings volume in the
IAOA series, together with those of the Joint Ontology Workshops (JOWO) and
other events collocated with FOIS 2024.

Important dates

Submissions due: 17 April 2024

Notifications of acceptance: 15 May 2024

Onsite Conference: 15-19 July 2024

Online conference: 08-09 July 2024

Camera-ready versions due: 30 July 2024

============================

Call for Journal-first

Paper submission: 17 April 2024

Webpage: https://www.utwente.nl/en/eemcs/fois2024/calls/journal-first/
<https://www.utwente.nl/en/eemcs/fois2024/calls/journal-first/>

============================



The FOIS 2024 journal-first track provides a forum to discuss recent
published research on topics related to formal ontology for broader
dissemination within the FOIS community. The track invites submissions of
extended abstracts of papers that have appeared or have been accepted for
publication in journals, but have not been previously presented at FOIS or
any other applied ontology-focused conference, including ICBO, ISWC, ESWC,
K-CAP, and all JOWO workshops.

Copyright permitting, accepted abstracts to the track (or shortened
versions) will be published in the conference proceedings for FOIS
satellite events within the IAOA series at CEUR-WS
<https://ceur-ws.org/iaoa.html>. In addition, they will be presented during
the conference (either on-site or online). Accepted papers to the track
will be linked to the conference website.

Expected contributions

For the journal-first track, we solicit submissions that meet the following
criteria:

   -

   - They relate to the topics of the FOIS conference (see FOIS 2024's call
   for papers <https://www.utwente.nl/en/eemcs/fois2024/calls/>).
   -

   - They are not extensions of an earlier conference or workshop paper.
   -

   - They must have been published in a journal in 2021 or later.
   -

   - They are research articles, but not review articles or commentaries.
   -

   Submissions that are in press can be submitted as long as the final
   camera-ready version is available.

Important dates

   -

   Paper submission: 17 April 2024
   -

   Author notification: 15 May 2024
