Meeting Description:

The International Conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems (FOIS)
is one of the leading conferences in ontology engineering. FOIS aims to
promote interdisciplinary research and international collaboration at the
intersection of philosophical ontology, linguistics, logic, cognitive science,
and computer science, as well as in the applications of ontological analysis
to conceptual modelling, knowledge engineering, knowledge management,
information-systems development, library and information science, scientific
research, and semantic technologies in general.

The FOIS 2021 conference, to be held in Bolzano-Bozen (Italy), September
13-16, 2021, will host an Early Career Symposium (ECS). This event is designed
to provide an opportunity for graduate students to present their work at one
of the leading conferences in formal ontology and to get first-hand feedback
and mentorship from senior researchers in their field. Topics of interest
include all topics relevant to the interdisciplinary field of ontology as
outlined in the topics of interest for FOIS 2021.


Call for Papers:

Format: 
The ECS will be held as a hybrid poster event within the main FOIS conference.

which each participant has the opportunity to advertise his/her work in a 5
minute speech in front of the general audience of the conference, either in
person at the venue or remotely. Each participant will be assigned a senior
researcher as mentor, who will provide substantial feedback to his/her work.

The ECS is open to students at the Master and Doctoral Levels that have not
defended their thesis before the ECS Submission deadline.

Candidates must submit a short description of their research project, which
should not be longer than 3 pages. Submissions will be reviewed by selected
members of the FOIS Program Committee. Final submission is via EasyChair (see

After signing in, select the ‘Early Career Symposium (ECS)’ track.

The submissions should follow the submission template available here:
https://tinyurl.com/sdwrn6km. The template is meant to be used as a general
reference to organize the description of the submitted research project in
different sections with specific contents. Make sure that the final version of
your submission is in a single pdf file.
The abstracts (up to 500 words), included in the projects' descriptions, will
be published open access in a joint CEUR proceedings volume, as part of the
new IAOA series (http://ceur-ws.org/iaoa.html).
