Semantic technologies, Linked Open Data, and knowledge representation formalisms such as the Web Ontology Language OWL are beginning to play increasingly important roles across a broad range of applications. There is an urgent need for the advanced training of graduate students to conduct research in this area and to prepare them for academic or industrial careers. Participation in premier research conferences in the area is an essential element of such training. This project will provide funds to subsidize the travel expenses of 6 students at U.S. universities to attend the 2014 Web Reasoning and Rules Systems conference, RR2014, and the 2014 Reasoning Web Summer School, which will be held September 8-17 in Athens, Greece. Broader impacts of the project include: Enhanced opportunities for training and mentoring of US-based graduate students in Semantic Web and related areas, broadening the participation of students from groups (women and minorities) that are currently under-represented in Computer Science in general, and Semantic Web in particular.The Web Reasoning and Rule Systems conference series, established in 2007, and the annual Reasoning Web Summer School series, attract the leading researchers in the field of Web Reasoning, and offer a venue for presentation of the latest advances in the field. Covered topics include ontology modeling languages, e.g., RDF, OWL, and RIF, which enable the inference of implicit knowledge from knowledge that is explicitly encoded in the knowledge base. Web Reasoning and related fields focus on the design, analysis, and development of ontology languages, study of their theoretical properties, and the design and implementation of effective inference algorithms. The co-location of the conference and summer school provides for an excellent venue for the training of graduate students. In addition to attending the invited and contributed talks at the conference, and the summer school, the students will benefit from individualized mentoring by established researchers.

语义技术、链接的开放数据和知识表示形式，如Web Ontology语言OWL，正开始在广泛的应用程序中发挥越来越重要的作用。迫切需要对研究生进行高级培训，以便在这一领域进行研究，并为他们从事学术或工业职业做好准备。参加该领域的主要研究会议是这类培训的一个基本要素。该项目将资助6名美国大学学生参加2014年网络推理和规则系统会议RR2014和将于9月8日至17日在希腊雅典举行的2014年推理网络暑期学校的旅费。该项目的更广泛影响包括：增加了在语义网及其相关领域对美国研究生进行培训和指导的机会，扩大了目前在计算机科学，特别是语义网中代表性不足的群体(妇女和少数民族)的学生的参与。网络推理和规则系统会议系列成立于2007年，每年一次的推理网络暑期学校系列吸引了网络推理领域的领先研究人员，并提供了一个展示该领域最新进展的场所。涵盖的主题包括本体建模语言，例如RDF、OWL和RIF，它们允许从知识库中显式编码的知识推断隐含知识。Web推理及其相关领域主要研究本体语言的设计、分析和开发，研究它们的理论性质，以及有效的推理算法的设计和实现。会议和暑期学校的合办为研究生的培训提供了一个极好的场所。除了参加会议和暑期学校的受邀演讲和贡献的演讲外，学生还将受益于知名研究人员的个性化指导。欲了解更多信息，请访问项目网页：http://pascal-hitzler.de/projects/rr2014.html
