The Semantic Web - ISWC 2009: 8th International Semantic Web Conference, ISWC 2009, Chantilly, VA, USA, October 25-29, 2009, Proceedings [Paperback]

As the Web continues to grow, increasing amounts of data are being made available for human and machine consumption. This emerging Semantic Web is rapidly entering the mainstream and, as a result, a variety of new solutions for searching, aggregating and the intelligent delivery of information are being produced,bothinresearchandcommercialsettings.Severalnewchallengesarise from this context, both from a technical and humancomputer interaction p- spective  e.g., as issues to do with the scalability andusability of Semantic Web solutions become particularly important. The International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC) is the major inter- tional forum where the latest research results and technical innovations on all aspects of the Semantic Web are presented. ISWC brings together researchers, practitioners, and users from the areas of arti?cial intelligence, databases, social networks,distributedcomputing,Webengineering,informationsystems,natural language processing, soft computing, and humancomputer interaction to d- cuss the major challenges and proposed solutions, success stories and failures, as well the visions that can advance the ?eld.Research Track.- Queries to Hybrid MKNF Knowledge Bases through Oracular Tabling.- Automatically Constructing Semantic Web Services from Online Sources.- Exploiting User Feedback to Improve Semantic Web Service Discovery.- A Generic Approach for Large-Scale Ontological Reasoning in the Presence of Access Restrictions to the Ontologys Axioms.- OntoCase-Automatic Ontology Enrichment Based on Ontology Design Patterns.- Graph-Based Ontology Construction from Heterogenous Evidences.- DOGMA: A Disk-Oriented Graph Matching Algorithm for RDF Databases.- Semantically-Aided Business Process Modeling.- Task Oriented Evaluation of Module Extraction Techniques.- A Decomposition-Based Approach to Optimizing Conjunctive Query Answering in OWL DL.- Goal-Directed Module Extraction for Explaining OWL DL Entailments.- Analysis of a Real Online Socil3)
