What ISWS is ...

ISWS is a full immersion, super intensive one-week experience including lectures and keynotes from outstanding speakers, a “learning by doing” teamwork program on open research problems, under the guidance of the best scientists in the field, with whom you will co-author a white paper of high potential impact. ISWS means networking and becoming friends with your peers as well as senior scientists, and have lots of fun with them. At ISWS we shape the future generation of semantic web researchers with creativity, methodology, fun and rigour.

Invasion of Ukraine

The International Semantic Web Research Summer School stands firmly by Ukraine and condemns the Russian government’s brutal attack on the European country in violation of international law. We consider the Russian invasion as an attack on elementary values of freedom, democracy and self-determination, on which scientific freedom and scientific cooperation are based. Ukraine and the Ukrainian people have our full solidarity at this moment!

Venue

ISWS is held in the University Residential Center located in the small medieval hilltop town of Bertinoro. This town is in Emilia Romagna about 50km east of Bologna at an elevation of 230m above sea level. Bertinoro is easily reached by train and taxi from Bologna and is close to many splendid Italian locations such as Ravenna, Rimini on the Adriatic coast, and the Republic of San Marino as well as some less well-known locations like the thermal springs of Fratta Terme, the Pieve di San Donato in Polenta and the castle and monastic gardens of Monte Maggio.
