6th Workshop on

Storing, Querying and Benchmarking Knowledge Graphs

at ISWC 2022, virtual

QuWeDa

The constant growth of Knowledge Graphs (KGs) on the Web raises new challenges for querying and integrating massive amounts of data across multiple KGs. Such KGs are available through various interfaces, such as data dumps, Linked Data Platform, SPARQL endpoints and Triple Pattern Fragments. In addition, various sources produce streaming data. Efficiently querying these sources is of central importance for the scalability of Linked Data and Semantic Web technologies. To exploit the massive amount of data to its full potential, users should be able to query and combine this data easily and effectively.


This workshop at the International Semantic Web Conference 2022 (ISWC 2022) seeks original articles describing theoretical and practical methods and techniques for fostering, querying, and consuming the Data Web. Topics relevant to this workshop include -- but are not limited to -- the following:

  • Representing and Storing the Web of Data as Knowledge Graphs

    • Efficient representation

    • Indexing

    • Caching and replication

    • Storage techniques

    • Real-time data warehousing from Web data

  • Querying the Web of Data as Knowledge Graphs

    • Centralized, decentralized, federated, and distributed

    • Source selection

    • Lightweight Linked Data interfaces

    • Web streams processing

    • Big Data techniques

    • Entailment regimes

    • Read and write queries

    • Linked Data documents and embedded Linked Data

    • Query relaxation and rewriting

    • Spatial Knowledge Graphs and GeoSPARQL querying

  • Benchmarking the Web of Data as Knowledge Graphs

    • Benchmarks

    • Ranking

    • Measures and metrics

    • Performance evaluation

  • Integrating different sources

    • Querying non-Linked Data sources

    • Combining public and private Linked Data

    • Querying personal Linked Data stores

  • Query languages for the Web

    • Domain-specific query languages (e.g., temporal and spatial queries)

    • Alternative languages for representing and querying the Web of Data

    • GraphQL applications and optimizations

Submission Information

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:​​​​​​​

  • Long papers (up to 16 pages): Presenting novel scientific research pertaining to querying the Web of Data

  • Short papers (up to 8 pages): Position papers, System, Library, API and Dataset descriptions, relevant to the topics of interest.

  • Demo/Poster papers (up to 4 pages): Describe a demo or poster of a tool on the workshop topics.

We require that authors use the new CEUR-ART style for writing papers to be published with CEUR-WS. The style is available from Vol-XXX. An Overleaf page for LaTeX users is available at https://www.overleaf.com/read/gwhxnqcghhdt. You can also download an offline version with the style files from http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip. It also contains DOCX template files. The authors must choose 1-column style.



Papers should be submitted through the EasyChair system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=quweda2022 no later than Thursday 08 September 2022, Hawaii time. Submissions will be reviewed by members of the workshop program committee. Papers will be evaluated according to their significance, originality, technical content, style, clarity, and relevance to the workshop.
