Assessing RDF Graph Databases for Smart City Services

Abstract

[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. The remainder of the conference is organized into four sessions, each of which includes specialized topics: (i) Visual Software Support Tools, (ii) Visual-Aided Data Network Analysis, (iii) Visualization and Computing of Multimedia Data, and (iv) Computational Intelligence, Models, and Algorithms. The conference has a long history of providing a venue for thought-provoking discussions, stimulation of research ideas, and both the initiation of new and the strengthening of existing collaborations. That tradition undoubtedly will continue given the variety of topics that are addressed in this year's collection of papers.As in the past, paper selection for this year's conference was based upon a rigorous review process. The acceptance rate for full papers was 33%. The conference program contains contributions of high quality research papers and short papers that discuss ongoing research activities and applications from an international population of researchers.Starting from 2015 The DMS proceedings also contain the Journal of Visual Languages and Sentient Systems (JVLSS). Volume I of JVLSS was published together with DMS2015 Proceedings, and Volume II of JVLSS was published together with DMS2016 Proceedings. We are pleased to announce that starting from 2017 JVLSS will be published independently in a separate volume. Up to 8 papers will be invited and further reviewed for possible inclusion in a JVLSS special issue and/or a JVLC special issue to be published in 2018. Invitations will be made after the DMSVLSS2017 conference.As Program Chair and Co-Chairs, we would like to express our gratitude and appreciation to the Steering Committee Chair, Dr. S.K. Chang, for his continued support and dedication to the conference, and his invaluable experience. The high quality of the DMSVLSS 2017 technical program would not have been possible without the tireless efforts of many other individuals as well. We would like to thank the Steering Committee for their continuous support and guidance. We also thank the Program Committee whose invaluable, attentive, and timely work has made possible the creation of a high quality technical program. Additionally, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation to all of the authors who submitted their papers to the conference, thereby contributing, through their work and ideas, to the success of this forum. Last but not least, we would like to acknowledge the important contribution of the KSI Research staff whose assistance and support has been truly remarkable throughout the entire organization process.On behalf of the Program Committee, we are delighted to extend to you our warm welcome to the 23 rd International Conference on Distributed Multimedia Systems, Visual Languages, and Sentient Systems (DMSVLSS 2017). We hope that you will find this year's conference a stimulating environment for iv exchanging ideas, and an opportunity to network with interesting people.
