The success and resulting growth of semantic technologies in corporate scenarios for a multitude of business planning and development tasks is becoming increasingly evident. Two important upcoming conferences on Semantic Web technologies will unveil and discuss the most recent technologies among such achievements. The 2008 Semantic Technology conference will be held from May 18-22 in San Jose, California, whose principal objectives include demonstrating Semantic Web technologies in a number of domains: government, healthcare, finance, semantic SOA, application development, and the TopBraid suite. Today, a press release revealed that 16 significant new semantic innovations would be exhibited at SemTech, including novel applications in Natural Language Processing and Text Analysis, Enterprise-wide Application Deployment and Integration; Data Searching, Sharing, and Tracking; Knowledge Modeling Solutions; Information Publishing and Data Provisioning; Open Source Community Initiatives; and Artificial Intelligence Functionality, in particular, a computer chip which claims to behave like a human brain by performing the behavior of a human brain: the capability to reason, think and analyze. Another important conference follows the SemTech conference – the LinkedData Planet Conference and Expo, which will be held in New York City on June 17-18, whose keynote speakers include Kingsley Idehen, President and CEO, OpenLink Software Inc., Ian Davis, Chief Technology Officer and Director, Talis Group, Sir Tim Berners-Lee (no introduction needed…), Atanas Kiryakov, Head, Ontotext Lab (Sirma Group) , and Dr. Anant Jhingran, VP and CTO, Information Management Division, IBM. The aim of the conference is similar to that of SemTech, to provide industry professionals and technologists with new views and applications for organizational data processing and business problems, such as trend analysis, decision support systems, social networking, and supply chain relationship management. http://www.semantic-conference.com http://www.linkeddataplanet.com
