The advent of the age of digital information has raised the problem of
knowledge acquisition, reuse and evaluation. This is today a dynamic
research area constantly subject to adaption to new application
requirements. Reuse and sharing of knowledge bases are major issues and no
satisfactory solutions have as yet been agreed upon as knowledge acquisition
still remains the bottleneck for building a knowledge-based system.

Our ability to analyse, evaluate and assist users in reusing knowledge
presents a great challenge for the coming years. A new generation of
computational techniques and tools is required to support the acquisition,
reuse and evaluation of useful knowledge from the rapidly growing volume of
information.

This call is aimed at collecting both theoretical and experimental results
concerned with developing methods and systems that assist the knowledge
management process and assessing the suitability of such methods.
