The field of Semantic Computing addresses the derivation and matching of

the semantics of computational content to that of naturally expressed

user intentions in order to retrieve, manage, manipulate or even create

content, where "content" may be anything including video, audio, text,

processes, services, hardware, networks, etc.

The third IEEE International Conference on Semantic Computing (ICSC2009)

continues to foster the growth of a new research community. The

conference builds on the success of the past ICSC conferences as an

international forum for researchers and practitioners to present

research that advances the state of the art and practice of Semantic

Computing, as well as identifying the emerging research topics and

defining the future of the field. The event is located in Berkeley,

California. The technical program of ICSC2009 includes workshops,

invited keynotes, paper presentations, panel discussions, and more.

Submissions of high-quality papers describing mature results or on-going

work are invited.

Areas of interest include:

Semantic Analysis

* Natural language processing

* Image and video analysis

* Audio and speech analysis

* Data and web mining

* Analysis of behaviors of software, services and networks

* Analysis of social networks

Semantic Integration

* Metadata and other description languages

* Database schema integration

* Ontology integration

* Interoperability and service integration

Semantic Applications

* Semantic programming languages and software engineering

* Semantic system design and synthesis

* Search engines and question answering

* Semantic web services

* Content-based multimedia retrieval and editing

* Context-aware networks of sensors, devices and applications

* Human centered communications

* Semantic trusted computing

* Semantic GIS systems

Semantic Interfaces

* Natural language interfaces

* Multimodal interfaces

The main goal of the conference is to foster the dialog between experts

in each of these disciplines. Therefore we especially encourage

submissions of work that is interesting to multiple areas, such as

multimodal approaches.
