============== Call for Papers ============
Special Issue: "Semantic and Web (SaW-2015)"
===========================================
Note: Publication fees will be waived for accepted papers submitted 
before August 31, 2015.

** AIMS:
One major aim of the Semantic Web is to enable a machine-processable Web 
of data. Hence the Semantic Web community regards the Semantic Web as 
extension of the traditional web. On the other hand applications of the 
Semantic Web rely deeply on web technologies in order to work in a 
distributed fashion world-wide. The goal of this special issue is to 
bring together contributions from these communities to address the 
challenges in Semantic Web and Web technologies in cooperation. We are 
interested in papers demonstrating how new technologies of the Web and 
Semantic Web complete each other. We also welcome papers with focus on 
and contribution to any of the two areas, including new approaches, 
techniques and applications, with substantial theoretical and empirical 
contributions to, and significant advancement of the state of the art of 
Web and/or Semantic Web.

communications, reviews and visionary papers in the fields of Web
