in Web Reasoning and related areas with the unique opportunity to<br>present and discuss their research directions, being involved into<br>state-of-the-art research discussion and being supported in<br>establishing fruitful collaborations with prominent researchers and<br>
pioneers in the field of Web Reasoning and Rules and related areas.</div><div><br> </div><div>== Publication ==</div><div>The conference proceedings will be published by Springer within the<br>Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. After the conference, <br>
authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions <br>of their papers to a special issue of a prestigious international <br>journal.</div><div><br> </div><div>== Submissions ==</div><div>Submissions must be prepared in Springer's LaTeX style llncs<br>
(<a href="http://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/Authors.html">http://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/Authors.html</a>).</div><div> </div><div>There are two submission formats:</div><div> </div><div>- Full papers (up to 15 pages)<br>
Original research works in the above areas</div><div>- Technical Communications (up to 6 pages)<br> Results and ideas of interest to the RR audience, including reports<br> about recent own publications, position papers, system descriptions<br>
and application descriptions (accompanying a demo), and<br> presentations of preliminary results</div><div> </div><div>All accepted works will be included in the proceedings, with<br>Technical Communications clearly marked as such. All full papers and<br>
selected Technical Communications will be invited to give a talk at<br>the conference. All accepted works will have the opportunity to<br>present a poster and/or a system demo.</div><div> </div><div>Submissions can be made in EasyChair:</div>
<div> <a href="http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rr-2013">http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rr-2013</a></div><div>Submission instructions for the RR 2013 Doctoral Consortium will be<br>communicated by means of a separate Call for Papers.</div>
<div> </div><div><br>== Best Paper Award and Best Student Paper Award==</div><div>Awards for Best Paper and Best Student Paper will be presented to the<br>corresponding author(s) at the conference. The best student paper will<br>
be selected among the ones written mainly by students (i.e. persons <br>not holding a PhD as of March 30, 2013), and the Best Student Paper <br>award will be assigned only in case a student is not one of the main <br>authors of the paper winning the Best Paper award. To qualify for the <br>
Best Student Paper award, the authors must indicate their eligibility <br>upon submission at easychair.</div><div> </div><div><br>== Organization ==</div><div>General Chair:<br>- Sebastian Rudolph (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany)</div>
