The 2nd CUBIST Workshop
In conjunction with ICFCA 2012 (6 - 10 May 2012, Leuven, Belgium)

CUBIST (Combining and Uniting Business Intelligence with Semantic Technologies) is an EU-funded research project that investigates the combination of semantic technologies for harvesting and persisting data from a variety of data sources (both unstructured and structured) and FCA-based visual analytics for exploring and analysing the data in a meaningful way.

This workshop provides a forum for both research and practice for CUBIST-related research topics and technologies in order to facilitate interdisciplinary discussions. Related topics are:

* Business intelligence over unstructured and structured data
* Semantically enabled ETL processes
* Semantics of data cubes
* Triple stores as "information warehouses"
* Ontology-based data warehouse design
* Formal concept analysis for business intelligence
* Semantically enabled visual analytics
* Qualitative data analysis.

The proceedings will be published on-line (CEUR-proceedings) and printed in a separate volume by KULeuven with ISBN. The three best papers submitted before ICFCA deadline may be included in the Springer volume containing the papers published at the main conference.

Submission Procedure: Electronic version of full paper complete with authors’ affiliations should be submitted through the conference electronic submission system.

Papers are limited to 10 pages in Springer's LNCS format and are to be submitted via EasyChair at www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cubistws12
