3rd International KEYSTONE Conference

IKC 2017

Gda?sk Poland, 11-12 September 2017

Welcome at the Third International KEYSTONE Conference (IKC2017)!

"KEYSTONE - semantic keyword-based search on structured data sources" is a COST Action aiming to make it straightforward to search through structured data sources like databases using the keyword-based search familiar to many internet users. The scientific objective of KEYSTONE is to analyse, design, develop and evaluate techniques to enable keyword-based search over large amounts of structured data.

The Third International KEYSTONE Conference is a place where academic and industrial researchers can meet, disseminate scientific results, share new ideas and start joint research activities, all related to the challenges mentioned above. The goals are broader than those of traditional academic conferences. For this reason the usual presentation sessions that aim at disseminating new outcomes and training, are intermixed with brainstorming sessions aiming at promoting the discussion, inter/intra domain cross fertilization and at enabling new joint research activities among the partners. The conference is the last event organised by Cost Action IC1302 during which a special emphasis will be put in summarising and promoting goals reached during the project.

As an event organized by an EU COST Action, the participation in conference does not require any registration fees.

The Conference offers 2 tracks:

Research Track, where regular papers will be presented
Demo/Poster Track, where we invite for presentation the best experiences achieved thanks to the KEYSTONE Cost Action IC1302 i.e. reports from STSMs, joint projects, research developed during the action.

The proceeding will be published in a formal publication edited by Springer.

As an event organized by a COST Action, the participation in conference does not require any registration fees.

The participation is open to all interested people. KEYSTONE WG Members can be eligible of reimbursement (around 40 people including MC Members).
