Extensions of description logics:
closed-world and non-monotonic reasoning, epistemic reasoning, temporal and spatial reasoning, procedural knowledge, query answering, reasoning over dynamic information
Integration of description logics with other formalisms:
database query languages, constraint-based programming, logic programming, rule-based systems, knowledge graphs, hybrid reasoning approaches
Applications of description logics:
ontology engineering, ontology languages, databases, ontology-based data access, semi-structured data, graph-structured data, linked data, document management, natural language, hybrid approaches combining logic and learning, explanations, planning, Semantic Web, cloud computing, conceptual modeling, web services, business processes, practical experiences, case studies, feasibility studies
Systems and tools of all kinds around description logics:
reasoners, ontology editors, ontology alignment, ontology extraction, ontology learning and mining, other support for ontology development, database schema design, query rewriting/answering/optimization, data integration, implementation and optimization techniques, benchmarking, evaluation, modeling
SUBMISSIONS
DL reviewing is single-blind, so the names of the authors will be visible to the reviewers and should be indicated on the submitted files. We allow anonymous submission on request (see below).
Submissions within the workshop scope may be of two types:
A. Regular papers of up to 11 pages (excluding references).
B. Extended abstracts of 2–4 pages (excluding references).
Both regular papers and abstracts must be formatted using the new CEURART style, based on the DL-specific template available on:
https://dl2024.w.uib.no/submissions/
and submitted via Easychair.
Submissions of type A must contain enough substance that they can be cited in other publications and may not have appeared before (nor be under submission). A clearly marked appendix with additional proofs and evaluation data may be included.
For submissions of type B, we highly encourage a clearly marked appendix with additional proofs, evaluation data, or extended version of your paper, which was accepted at another conference or which you submitted or plan to submit to another conference. Abstracts of papers accepted or under review at other venues must clearly state the venue where the paper has been submitted alongside its status.
The appendix will be read at the discretion of the reviewers and will not be included in the proceedings. The appendix does not need to be in the CEURART format.
Accepted submissions of both types will be selected for either oral or poster presentation at the workshop. Submissions will be judged solely based on their content, and the type of submission will have no bearing on the decision between oral and poster presentation.
Anonymous Submission
In justified cases, if you wish your submission to be handled anonymously (i.e. double-blind), please send an e-mail to the PC co-chairs explaining the reasons. You will receive instructions on how to proceed.

Based on Program Committee evaluation, a paper can be rejected or accepted by the Conference Chairs. In the later case, it can be accepted as the type originally submitted or as another type. Thus, full papers can be accepted as short papers or poster papers only. Similarly, short papers can be accepted as poster papers only.
Poster papers and Company papers are not published in the Conference Proceedings, being only presented and discussed. The authors of accepted poster papers should build and print a poster to be exhibited during the Conference. This poster must follow an A1 or A2 vertical format. The Conference includes Work Sessions where these posters are presented and orally discussed, with a 7 minute limit per poster.
The authors of accepted Full papers will have 15 minutes to present their work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 5 minutes of discussion will follow each presentation. The authors of accepted Short papers and Company papers will have 11 minutes to present their work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 4 minutes of discussion will follow each presentation.

To ensure that a full paper or short paper is published and presented, poster paper or company paper is presented, at least one of the authors must be fully registered by the 5th of January 2024, and the paper must comply with the suggested layout and page-limit. Additionally, all recommended changes must be addressed by the authors before they submit the camera-ready version.
No more than one paper per registration will be published. An extra fee must be paid for publication of additional papers, with a maximum of one additional paper per registration. One registration permits only the participation of one author in the conference.
Full and Short papers will be published in Proceedings by Springer, in several books of of the Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems series. Poster and company papers will not be published, just presented in the conference.
Published Full and Short papers will be submitted for indexation by WoS, SCOPUS, DBLP and Google Scholar, among others, and will be available in the SpringerLink Digital Library.

******* Call for papers: Joint event ACONTA / MARAMI *******
*** Augmented Complex Networks - Trustworthy Analysis & ***
***** 12th Conference on Network Modeling and Analysis *****
******* Clermont Auvergne University, France *******
********* 13-15 December 2023 *********
********* https://marami2023.sciencesconf.org *********
Abstract (2 pages) submission deadline: October 27th, 2023.
Overview
========
Complex networks analysis has been shown to be useful for gaining
insights in a wide variety of applications domains such as social
interactions, ecology, biological, healthcare, safety and security,
and many more. These applications have motivated the extension of
network models to richer representations and augmented complex
network models, such as feature-rich and higher-order network
models. Examples include multiplex networks, multilayer networks,
temporal networks attributed networks and network on networks.
Machine learning approaches are being extensively used for obtaining
insights into/using these models and for mining knowledge from these
models and for a variety of tasks including node classification and
role identification, link prediction, community detection, anomaly
detection and much more. These tasks are generally required to
enable and support critical decisions and should so be largely
trustworthy. XAI approaches should be adapted to the networked
context, and network analysis can also contribute to devise
explainability-oriented features in the targeted applications areas.
This joint conference aims to bridge the gap between these areas by
exploring the use of complex network analysis and explainability in
the following featured application areas: Complex networks in
Cybersecurity, safety and security, Biological and ecological
networks and Online Social Networks.
Submission Guidelines
