<p class="c8"><span class="c2">The annual SEMANTiCS conference</span><span
class="c3"> (formerly known as I-Semantics) is the meeting place
for professionals who make semantic computing work and
understand the benefits and discuss how to overcome its
limitations. Every year, SEMANTiCS attracts information
managers, IT-architects, software engineers, and researchers,
from organisations ranging from NPOs, public administrations to
the largest companies in the world. Attendees learn from
industry experts and top researchers about emerging trends and
topics in semantic software, enterprise data, linked data &
open data strategies and methodologies in knowledge modeling and
text & data analytics. The SEMANTiCS community is very
diverse; attendees have responsibilities in a range of areas,
including knowledge management, technical documentation,
e-commerce, big data analytics, enterprise search, document
management, business intelligence, and enterprise vocabulary
management.</span></p>
<p class="c0"><span class="c3"></span></p>
<p class="c8"><span class="c2">SEMANTiCS 2014 in Leipzig </span><span
class="c3">continues our long tradition of bringing together
colleagues from around the world to present papers, panels,
exhibitions and posters, to discuss best practices of semantic
systems in birds-of-a-feather sessions and exchange knowledge
further in informal settings. SEMANTiCS addresses problems
common among information managers, software engineers,
IT-architects and various specialist departments working to
develop, implement and/or evaluate semantic software systems.</span></p>
<p class="c0"><span class="c3"></span></p>
<p class="c8"><span class="c3">The </span><span class="c2">SEMANTiCS
program</span><span class="c3"> is a rich mix of technical
talks, panel discussions of important topics, and presentations
by people who are ambitious to make information machines work -
just like you. In addition, attendees can network with experts
in a variety of fields. These relationships provide great value
to organisations as they encounter subtle technical issues. The
expertise gained by SEMANTiCS attendees has a long-term impact
on their careers and organisations. These factors make SEMANTiCS
the premiere event for our community. The following
‘horizontals’ (topics) and ‘verticals’ (industries) are mainly
addressed:</span></p>

<p class="c8"><span class="c2">Transfer</span><span class="c3">:
Research and experts meet industry, industry meets experts and
research. SEMANTiCS is the place to exchange (project) ideas
based on best practices and to learn more about the various
perspectives one can have on probably the most valuable
resources of our days: data & information.</span></p>
<p class="c8"><span class="c2">Engineering</span><span class="c3">:
Software providers, developers and IT-architects meet research
and (potential) users from industry. SEMANTiCS is the place to
dive deep into semantic web and linked data technologies.</span></p>
<p class="c8"><span class="c2">Community</span><span class="c3">:
Make new friends and renew old acquaintances. SEMANTiCS is the
meeting place to discuss and to initiate new projects, to extend
