> The Semantic Web is currently the most evolving area of the Internet
> development. This second-Generation Web is based not on HTML but on XML
> and related technologies, such as RDF, Topic Maps, Ontologies,
> Namespaces, and others. The 'Semantic Web' is "a vision: the idea of
> data on the Web defined and linked in a way that it can be used by
> machines for automation, integration and reuse". The Semantic Web not
> only requires adapting existing visualisation techniques and developing
> new approaches, but also opens wide opportunities for their practical
> implementation. The "Visualisation of the Semantic Web" was started in
> 2001 as the first International Symposium specially devoted to the
> visual aspects of the Second Generation Web.The symposium seeks original
> research papers that deal with, but are not limited to, the following
> topics:
> * Visualisation of Semantic Information and Metadata
> * Visual Design of Ontologies and Schemas
> * Conceptual Modelling of XML Data Using UML
> * Topic Maps Technology
> * Rendering and Viewing XML Documents
> * Semantic Virtual Environments and MetaVR
> * Visual Information Filtering and Knowledge Discovery
> * New Visualisation Techniques for the Semantic Web
> * Semantic-Oriented Use of Existing Visualisation Methods
> * Multimedia Interfaces for XML Documents and Ontologies
