Computing Community Consortium Blog

The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

Blue Sky ideas logoThe Computing Community Consortium (CCC) recently sponsored a Blue Sky Ideas Conference Track at the 18th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2019), October 26-30, 2019, in Auckland, New Zealand. The purpose of this conference was to presenting fundamental research, innovative technology, and applications concerning semantics, data, and the Web.

The goal of this track was to solicit visionary ideas, long term challenges, and opportunities for the Semantic Web that are outside of the current topics in the field and are not mature or specific enough to be accepted in the regular research track.
