Description

The International Journal on Semantic Web and Information Systems (IJSWIS) promotes a knowledge transfer channel where academics, practitioners, and researchers can discuss, analyze, criticize, synthesize, communicate, elaborate, and simplify the more-than-promising technology of the semantic Web in the context of information systems. The journal aims to establish value-adding knowledge transfer and personal development channels in three distinctive areas: academia, industry, and government.

Reviews and Testimonials

"Today's Web is rich in data but poor in semantic. Semantic Web will help realize the true understanding of humans by computers. The International Journal on Semantic Web and Information Systems (IJSWIS) is the only international journal focusing on the intersection of the the Semantic Web and Information Systems areas. The journal aims to not only advance the state of Semantic Web technologies but also improve our understanding of the impact of Semantic Web technologies on individuals and organizations and our understanding of users' requirements for Semantic Web technologies."
- Lina Zhou, University of Maryland-Balitmore County, USA

"The International Journal on Semantic Web and Information Systems is instrumental in stimulating research and practical debate on the technologies, applications and implications of the Semantic Web, providing a unique specialized forum for the publication of novel research in these topics."
- Nancy Pouloudi, Athens University of Economics and Business, Greece
