WORKSHOP ON
Regulatory Ontologies and the Modeling of Complaint Regulations
Webpage: http://www.starlab.vub.ac.be/staff/mustafa/WORM_CoRE_2003.htm
Co-occurring with the International Federated Conferences (OTM '03)
http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf/
November 3-7, 2003
Catania, Sicily, Italy
The benefits of e-commerce cannot be exploited fully by consumers because of
the lack of trust and confidence in online cross-border purchases. To achieve
fair trading and transparency in commercial communications and transactions,
effective complaint mechanisms need to be established and involved in e-business
activities. This workshop aims at bringing together academics, researchers,
professionals and industrial practitioners to discuss issues involved in
modeling ontology of cross-border business regulations, among other things
focusing on complaint regulations.
We seek original contributions on the following issues of interest,
but not limited to:
- Engineering of regulatory ontologies: Representation, Context, modularization,
layering, reusability, maintainability, extensibility, etc;
- Regulatory metadata standards (legal/leg-XML, ADR/ODR-XML,...);
- Policies and complaint regulations in Policy RuleML;
- Ontologies of: complaints, complaint resolutions, complainants, evidences, legal cases etc;
- Sensitivity on and harmonization of cross-border business regulations
in general;
- Multilingual and terminology aspects of regulatory ontologies.
- Experiences with projects and applications of regulatory ontologies;
Submissions
===========================
We invite papers of no more than 20 pages length (6000 words or less, Springer
style format) describing original completed work, work in progress, interesting
problems or use cases, or trends in this research area. Submitted papers will
be fully refereed based on the originality and significance of the ideas
presented as well as on technical aspects. Accepted papers will be published
by Springer-Verlag as a part of Proceedings of the 2003 International
Conference on Ontologies, Databases and Applications of SEmantics (ODBASE).
