Preface
ISW-LOD is a forum for the semantic web and linked open data communities, where practitioners
in industry, academia and others interested in these topics are welcome for describing real and
potential applications, share experience and discuss the latest scientific results and technology
innovations around semantic technologies and linked open data.
The Fourth International Semantic Web and Linked Open Data workshop (4th ISW-LOD 2016) took
place on November 23 at San José, Costa Rica. This fourth edition was Co-located with IBERAMIA
2016 and we focused on presenting articles on Semantic Web, IoT and Linked Open Data.
The goal of ISW-LOD is not only to create an interlinked web of knowledge on these topics in
Mexico, but also to create an interlinked Iberoamerican community by networking with
international and consolidated communities.
In this sense we had a Panel Discussions: Towards a Thematic Network on Semantic Technologies
with Héctor Gibrán Ceballos Cancino (ITESM, México) as chair and the followings participants:
Edna Ruckhaus Ontology Universidad Politécnica de Spain
Engineering Group Madrid
José Emilio Labra Gayo Weso research group Universidad de Oviedo Spain
Nelson Piedra Tecnologías Universidad Técnica Particular Ecuador
Janneth Chicaiza Espinosa Avanzadas de la Web de Loja
y Sistemas Basados
en conocimiento
Yusniel Hidalgo Delgado Semantic Web Universidad de las Ciencias Cuba
Research Group Informáticas
We would like to thank the members of the Technical Program Committee for their valuable
reviews, which were essential for designing the program. We really appreciate their support and
effort made to improve the revised paper. We also thank the organizers of IBERAMIA 2016,
specifically Federico Barber (Spain), Francisco Garijo (Spain) and Manuel Montes y Gómez (INAOE,
Mexico) for their support.
