Metadata is a key aspect of our evolving infrastructure for information management, social computing, and scientific collaboration. DC-2008 will focus on metadata challenges, solutions, and innovation in initiatives and activities underlying semantic and social applications. Metadata is part of the fabric of social computing, which includes the use of wikis, blogs, and tagging for collaboration and participation. Metadata also underlies the development of semantic applications, and the Semantic Web -- the representation and integration of multimedia knowledge structures on the basis of semantic models. These two trends flow together in applications such as Wikipedia, where authors collectively create structured information that can be extracted and used to enhance access to and use of information sources. Recent discussion has focused on how existing bibliographic standards can be expressed as Semantic Web vocabularies to facilitate the ingration of library and cultural heritage data with other types of data. Harnessing the efforts of content providers and end-users to link, tag, edit, and describe their information in interoperable ways (" participatory metadata") is a key step towards providing knowledge environments that are scalable, self-correcting, and evolvable. DC-2008 will explore conceptual and practical issues in the development and deployment of semantic and social applications to meet the needs of specific communities of practice.

This book covers the basics of semantic web technologies and indexing languages, and describes their contribution to improve methods of formal knowledge representation and reasoning. The methodologies included combine the specifics of indexing languages, Web representation languages and intersystem relations, and explain their contribution to search functionalities in information retrieval scenarios. An example oriented discussion, considering aspects of conceptual and semantic interoperability in processes of subject querying and knowledge exploration is provided. The book is relevant to information scientists, knowledge workers and indexers. It provides a suitable combination of theoretical foundations and practical applications.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Metadata and Semantic Research, MTSR 2017 2017, held in Tallinn, Estonia, November 28th to December 1st, 2017. The 18 full and 13 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 58 submissions. They focus on the Internet of Things (IoT) and the practical implementation of ontologies and linked data. Further topics are theoretical and foundational principles of metadata; ontologies and information organization; applications of linked data, open data, big data and user-generated metadata; digital interconnectedness; metadata standardization; authority control and interoperability in digital libraries and research data repositories; emerging issues in RDF, OWL, SKOS, schema.org, BIBFRAME, metadata and ontology design; linked data applications for e-books; digital publishing and Content Management Systems (CMSs); content discovery services, search, information retrieval and data visualization applications.

This volume constitutes the selected paqpers of the third international conference on Metadata and Semantic Research, MTSR 2009, held in Milan, Italy, in September/October 2009. In order to give a novel perspective in which both theoretical and application aspects of metadata research contribute in the growth of the area, this book mirrors the structure of the Congress, grouping the papers into three main categories: 1) theoretical research: results and proposals, 2) applications: case studies and proposals, 3) special track: metadata and semantics for agriculture, food and environment. The book contains 32 full papers (10 for the first category, 10 for the second and 12 for the third), selected from a preliminary initial set of about 70 submissions.
