The third OWL: Experiences and Directions workshop (OWLED 2007) will again bring users, implementors and researchers together in order to measure the current state of need against the state of the art and to set an agenda for language evolutions that satisfy users. OWLED 2007 shall in particular present industrial efforts and experiences with OWL. It shall further the interaction between industry, theoreticians and tool builders, help consolidate OWL 1.1, clarify the relationships between OWL and rules and initiate the specification of OWL 2.0.
Building on the success of the 2005 OWLED and the 2006 OWLED workshops, the 2007 OWLED workshop will again be immediately after one of the main Semantic Web conferences, namely the ESWC conference, and is colocated with the First International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems, RR2007.

[edit] Topics
OWLED 2007 welcomes the submission of papers about all aspects of OWL and extensions, application, theory, method, tool, including but not limited to the following topics:
- All applications of OWL
- Application-driven requirements for OWL
- Implementation techniques for OWL and related languages
- Performance and scalability issues
- Bridges between knowledge engineering and OWL
- Non-standard inference services, including explanations, static verification, modularity
- Enriching ontologies with rules
- Query answering and data integration
- Tools for OWL, including: editors, visualisation tools, parsers and syntax checkers, versioning frameworks
- Extensions to OWL, including:
- extended datatype constructors, property constructors, class constructors
- keys, constraints, rules
- probabilistic and fuzzy extensions, non-monotonic extensions, temporal and spatial extensions
Submissions of papers on industrial efforts, experiences reports, system descriptions, position papers (especially about new features or issues with OWL), and survey papers about theory or tools (for example comparing different ways of combining rules with OWL) are strongly encouraged. We particularly welcome:
- Descriptions of industry system or industrial applications
- Experience reports with OWL or OWL 1.1 (or any fragment or extension)
- Domain or application ontologies (e-Science, e-Health, e-Culture, e-Learning etc.)
- Industry requirements
- Life Sciences or other community requirements
- Implementation issues with OWL or OWL 1.1
- Demos with OWL or OWL 1.1
- Reasoning with OWL and rules in practical applications
- Requirements for a potential OWL 2.0 revision
