Eighth IEEE International Conference on Semantic Computing


IEEE ICSC2014


June 16th-18th, 2014, Newport Beach, CA, USA


http://www.ieee-icsc.org/ 


Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society


The field of Semantic Computing addresses the derivation of 
semantic information from content and the connection of 
semantics to knowledge, where "content" may be anything 
including structured data, video, audio, text, hardware, 
software, process, etc.


The Eighth IEEE International Conference on Semantic 
Computing (ICSC 2014) continues to foster the growth of a 
new research community. The conference builds on the success 
of the past ICSC conferences as an international forum for 
researchers and practitioners to present research that 
advances the state of the art and practice of Semantic 
Computing, as well as identifying emerging research topics 
and defining the future of the field. The event is located 
in Newport Beach, California at Hyatt Regency Newport Beach. 
The technical program of ICSC 2014 includes workshops, 
invited keynotes, paper presentations, panel discussions, 
industrial 'show and tells', demonstrations, and more. 
Submissions of high-quality papers describing mature results 
or ongoing work are invited.


The main goal of the conference is to foster the dialog between 
experts in each sub-discipline. Therefore we especially encourage 
submissions of work that is interesting to multiple areas, such
as multimodal approaches.
