Dear colleagues,
Upon multiple requests we have decided to extend the submission deadline for the Workshop on Interaction-based Knowledge Sharing (WINKS) by one week to 24 July 2017.
Best wishes,
Dagmar, Kemo, Jerome
*** Extended Deadline Monday 24 July 2017 for ALL submissions***
SCOPE
This first Workshop on Interaction-Based Knowledge Sharing (WINKS) collocated with the third Joint Ontology Workshop (http://iaoa.org/jowo/JOWO-2017/) is fully dedicated to challenges and solutions to knowledge sharing in interaction-based environments, ranging from the Internet of Things to multi-agent systems. Gradually expanding, distributed systems heighten the need of a dynamic interactive knowledge sharing process, while at the same time an increasing heterogeneity of resources renders this process more complex. As a highly interdisciplinary workshop, discussions will center on requirements and suggestions to endow computational models with knowledge sharing capabilities in interactive scenarios.

– Theories of knowledge sharing in human-human interaction
– Sharing semantics in natural language interactions
– Knowledge sharing in robotics and autonomous systems
– Cognitive aspects of knowledge sharing
– Multidisciplinary approaches to interaction-based knowledge sharing
Interaction-Based Reasoning:
– Interactive case-based reasoning
– Distributed reasoning in multi-agent systems
– Distributed reasoning in the Internet of Things, Semantic Web, and Big Data
Interaction-Based Knowledge Resources Engineering:
– Ontology alignment in multi-agent systems
– Machine learning in distributed system engineering
– Creation of datasets by distributed interactive systems
– Collaborative ontology engineering
Knowledge Sharing in Interaction-based Applications:
