Workshop on Scripting for the Semantic Web
"SFSW" - focussing on languages such as Python, PHP, Perl, Ruby, JavaScript, ASP, JSP, ActionScript and ColdFusion. May 30, 2005, Heraklion, Greece. Co-located with 2nd European Semantic Web Conference (ESWC2005).
Atom is listed under Topics of Interest. Call for Papers (PDF).
The workshop aims to bring together for the first time developers of the RDF base infrastructure for scripting languages with practitioners building applications using these languages. The goal of the workshop is to give an overview of the current support for Semantic Web technologies within scripting languages, to showcase innovative Semantic Web applications relying on these languages.
