Venue
Bolzen-Bolzano, Italy
Warning: Venue is missing. The map might not show the exact location.
The 11th International Conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems, FOIS 2020, was to happen in Bolzano, Italy, in September 2020 as part of BOSK 2020. Sadly because of the COVID-19 FOIS 2020 was not able to occur as planned. While papers were reviewed and the proceedings will be published by IOS Press, the physical conference has been cancelled.
DEFINITION AND SCOPE
The advent of complex information systems that rely on robust, coherent and formal representations of their subject matter, has led to the exploitation of ontological analysis and ontology-based representation. The systematic study of such analysis and representation is at the center of the modern discipline of formal ontology, which is a general theory of the types of entities and relations making up domains of interest.
Researchers in many domains engage with formal ontology to provide a solid foundation for their work. Common application areas include conceptual modeling, database design, knowledge engineering and management, software engineering, organizational modeling, artificial intelligence, robotics, computational linguistics, the life sciences, bioinformatics and scientific research in general, geographic information science, information retrieval, library and information science, and the Semantic Web.
The FOIS conference is a meeting point for all researchers with an interest in formal ontology. The conference encourages new high quality submissions on both theoretical issues and concrete applications. As in previous years, FOIS 2020 aims to be a nexus of interdisciplinary research and communication.
FOIS is the flagship conference of the International Association for Ontology and its Applications (IAOA: http://iaoa.org/), which is a non-profit organization promoting interdisciplinary research and international collaboration in formal ontology.

SUBMISSIONS
FOIS seeks full-length high-quality papers on a wide range of topics. An ideal FOIS paper will address both content-related ontological issues, their formal representation, as well as their impact and relevance for some aspect of information systems. Please refer to the FOIS submissions page for submission details. As usual, the FOIS proceedings will be published by IOS Press.
Related activities, such as workshops and tutorials, may specify different submission formats, for example, short papers or posters. Please refer to the relevant related activity page (forthcoming) for submission and publication details.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
Areas of particular interest to FOIS include the following:
Foundational Issues
- Kinds of entities: particulars/universals, continuants/occurrents, abstracta/concreta, dependent entities/independent entities, natural objects/artifacts
- Formal relations: parthood, identity, connection, dependence, constitution, causality, subsumption, instantiation
- Vagueness and granularity
- Space, time, and change
Methodological issues
- Top-level vs. domain-specific ontologies
- Role of reference ontologies
- Ontology similarity, integration and alignment
- Ontology modularity, contextuality, and evolution
- Formal comparison among ontologies
- Relationship with cognition, language, semantics, context
- Ontologies and Knowledge Graphs
Domain-specific ontologies
- Ontology of physical reality (matter, space, time, motion etc.)
- Ontology of biological reality (organisms, genes, proteins, cells etc.)
- Ontology of mental reality and agency (beliefs, intentions, emotions, perceptions, cognition, etc.)
- Ontology of artifacts, functions, capacities and roles
- Ontology of social reality (institutions, organizations, norms, social relationships, artistic expressions etc.)
Applications
- Ontology-driven information systems design
- Ontological foundations for conceptual modeling
- Knowledge management
- Qualitative modeling
