Editorial


Dear friends,

AIS SIGSEMIS Bulletin has been established as one of the key reference
points for the Semantic Web and Information Systems Research. It is more
than motivating fur as to have visitors from more than 90 countries and to
have established a rate of more than 10.000 downloads from our bulletin.
We want to thank you for your continuous support and please accept my
personal invitation to be part of this publication. I would be more than
happy to receive proposals for new columns in this edition (just send an
email to [log in to unmask]) as well as proposals for special issues
in our Research Articles section.

In the following table you can find some interesting statistics for our
portal at www.sigsemis.org for which I have to say a GREAT thank you to my
colleague Nikos Korfiatis.

In this issue we have the honor to host an excellent interviews of
Professor Thomas Davenport, a man who has influenced the Research and
Practice of Knowledge Management.  In this issue there are several
interesting pieces of news:
* News from AIS SIGSEMIS activities (Call for papers in special issues,
sponsored minitracks and workshops)
* Reports for three AIS SIGSEMIS sponsored events:
o A report on our Semantic Web and Information Systems Track in ECIS 2005
o A report on ONTOSE 2005
o A report on FOMI 2005
* Two research articles
* Our regular columns and a short presentation of a just published edited
book

I would like also to share with you an interesting piece of news. As the
Editor in chief of the International Journal of Knowledge and Learning,
published by Indersience (http://www.inderscience.com/ijkl) I invited all
the European Union funded R&D projects of the FP6 under the action line
Semantic-based Knowledge Systems to contribute to a double special issue
their vision for Semantic-based knowledge systems. I am happy that almost
all the scientific coordinators accepted my invitation. This special issue
is planned for the spring of 2006 (A similar issue is organized for USA
and Australasian projects).  This initiative is in close collaboration
with IJSWIS, our IJ on Semantic Web and Information Systems (EIC: Amit
Sheth), where a selection of leading edge articles will be considered for
publication. Given this opportunity we are more than happy to have the 3rd
issue of IJSWIS published already with three HIGH QUALITY RESEARCH
ARTICLES:

* 'The Human Semantic Web Shifting from Knowledge Push to Knowledge Pull'
by Ambjorn Naeve, The Knowledge Management Research Group, Royal Institute
of Technology, Sweden

* 'General Adoption Framework: Enabling Interoperability for Industrial
Web Resources' by Olena Kaykova, Oleksiy Khriyenko, Dmytro Kovtun, Anton
Naumenko, Vagan Terziyan, and Andriy Zharko from University of Jyvaskyla,
Finland

* And 'A Context-Based Approach for Supporting Knowledge Work with
Semantic Portals'
 by Thomas Hadrich, Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg, Germany and
Torsten Priebe, University of Regensburg, Germany

This academic year was very tough for me personally. I put a lot of my
energy to AIS SIGSEMIS as well as to the planning of several editions. But
I am happy that your support is our power.

I invite you to join our SIG and be part of an exciting community: 
(http://www.sigsemis.org/sig/membership/document_view).  In your renewal
of AIS subscription consider SIGSEMIS as an interesting option.

Looking forward for your comments, ideas, participation and inquiries. AIS
SIGSEMIS is not a close club. It is an open forum. Be part of this
exciting community.

Semantic Web technology is here to stay. Looking forward to "see" you in
one of the forthcoming AIS SIGSEMIS activities.

HAPPY SUMMER HOLIDAYS

On behalf of SIG SEMIS Board
