The field Semantic Computing applies technologies in natural language
processing, data and 
knowledge engineering, software engineering, computer systems and
networks, signal 
processing and pattern recognition, and any combination of the above to
extract, access, 
transform and synthesize the semantics as well as contents of
multimedia, texts, services 
and structured data.

The IEEE International Conference on Semantic Computing (ICSC2007) is an
international 
forum for researchers to exchange information regarding advancements in
the state of the 
art and practice of semantic computing, as well as to identify the
emerging research topics 
and define the future of semantic computing.
