The field of Semantic Computing addresses the derivation of
semantic information from content and the connection of
semantics to knowledge, where "content" may be anything
including structured data, video, audio, text, hardware,
software, process, etc.

The Seventh IEEE International Conference on Semantic
Computing (ICSC 2013) continues to foster the growth of a
new research community. The conference builds on the success
of the past ICSC conferences as an international forum for
researchers and practitioners to present research that
advances the state of the art and practice of Semantic
Computing, as well as identifying emerging research topics
and defining the future of the field. The event is located
in Irvine, California, at Irvine Hyatt.

The technical program of ICSC 2013 includes workshops, invited
keynotes, paper presentations, panel discussions, industrial
'show and tells', demonstrations, and more. Submissions of
high-quality papers describing mature results or ongoing work
are invited.

The main goal of the conference is to foster the dialog between
experts in each sub-discipline. Therefore we especially encourage 
submissions of work that is interesting to multiple areas, such as 
multimodal approaches.
