Introduction
In addition, partitioning knowledge into distinct modular structures is central to organize knowledge bases. Also, represented and reasoning about context is essential for correct exploitation of modules and reasoning in changing situations. Finally, evolution of Knowledge resources is an important factor influencing the meaningfulness of stored knowledge over time.
Considering these emerging needs, the 3rd International Workshop on Ontology Modularity, Contextuality, and Evolution (WOMoCoE 2018) offers the ground to discuss current work on practical and theoretical aspects of modularity, contextuality and evolution of knowledge resources. The workshop aims to bring together an The conference topics interested in its topics both from a theoretical and formal point of view and from an applicational perspective.
We are proud to annouce that WOMoCoE 2018 will be collocated with KR 2018 . This October, looking forward to see you in Tempe, Arizona!

Submission Requirements
WOMoCoE welcomes regular research reports, but also reports on significant work in progress which has already achieved some interesting partial results, as well as papers after submitting or publishing elsewhere. Survey papers and position papers are also welcomed.
Guidlines
Submission Guidelines
WOMoCoE welcomes regular papers (including surveys), position papers, but as well extended abstracts of works published elsewhere:
-
Regular papers (12 pages): Original research reports, including work-in-progress reports, and surveys on topics of the workshop.
-
Position papers (6 pages): Presentation of interesting new open issues and challenges, and opinions on the status of the field, that would trigger interesting discussion at the workshop.
-
Extended abstracts (1–4 pages) of relevant works has been published or submitted elsewhere. Submissions should also include the original paper in the appendix for sake of review (only extended abstracts will appear in the workshop proceedings).
The indicated maximal paper length includes references. All papers must be formatted using the Springer LNCS style:
To submit the paper, follow the link:

TBA
All submitted papers will be subject to blind (but not double-blind) peer-review process. Accepted papers will be presented either as oral presentations or as posters, depending on the choice of the program committee.
At least one co-author of each accepted paper is required to register for KR, to attend the workshop, and present the paper in person.
All accepted papers will be made available in the form of informal online workshop proceedings. More information about publication plan will be posted soon.
