    3RD CALL FOR PARTICIPATION:
    WORKSHOP ON FRAMEWORKS FOR SEMANTICS IN WEB SERVICES
    
      W3C is holding a workshop on Frameworks for Semantics in Web
      Services. This workshop is being held to discuss the establishment of
      a generic extensible framework based on Semantic Web technologies, to
      support longer-term objectives, while continuing to develop immediate
      solutions for the most pressing Web Services requirements.  The
      workshop results will be used in setting directions at W3C with
      respect to this vital technology area. Input is sought from
      researchers, developers, technology managers, tool builders, users,
      and other interested parties.
    
        When:  9-10 June 2005
        Where: Digital Enterprise Research Institute (DERI),
               Innsbruck, Austria

      Scope
      -----
    
      There are a great many relationships to existing Semantic Web
      efforts as well as to existing Web Services development, including:
    
         Semantic Web background technologies; e.g. RDF, OWL
         Web Services background technologies; e.g. SOAP, WSDL
         Registries, taxonomies, and search mechanisms; e.g. UDDI
         Rule languages; e.g. SWRL
         Ontologies for Web Services; e.g. OWL-S, WSMO
         Web Services Choreography; e.g. WS-CDL
         Business process; e.g. BPEL4WS
    
      Discussion of the relationship of these areas to the workshop topic is
      encouraged.
    
      We are looking forward to your participation and contributions to this
      workshop.
