Ontology is a cross-disciplinary field concerned with the study of concepts and theories that support the building of shared conceptualizations of specific domains. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the application of ontologies to solve modeling and classification problems in diverse areas such as Computer Science, Information Science, Philosophy, Artificial Intelligence, Linguistics, Knowledge Management and many others.
The Seminar on Ontology Research in Brazil (ONTOBRAS) foresees an opportunity and scientific environment in which researchers and practitioners from Information Sciences and Computer Science can exchange the theories, methodologies, languages, tools and experience related to the ontology development and application. ONTOBRAS is part of a tradition that dates back to 2005 in Brazil and it was defined by Brazilian Ontology Community as the unique highly scientifically qualified forum for presenting and discussing ontologies and their cases of application in Brazil.
Therefore, we provide a non-comprehensive list of areas and researchers communities from which we expect to receive submissions: -Information Science, for instance working with ontologies, thesauri, knowledge management; -Databases, for instance working with semantic data integration, linked open data; -Artificial Intelligence, for instance working with knowledge based systems, agents, ontology reasoning; -Software Engineering, for instance working with Conceptual Modeling, Business Process Models, Enterprise Modeling; -Informatics in Education, for instance working with Educational Ontologies, Semantic Web-based Educational Standards; -Logics and Formal Representation Systems applied to the representation of Ontologies; -Knowledge Representation and Reasoning with Ontologies; -Linguistics and philosophy, working with natural language processing using ontologies, theories of representation; -Other applications of ontologies.
Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit theoretical, technical and practical research contributions that directly or indirectly address the issues above. Particularly welcome are e-science, life-sciences, e-business, e-government and cultural applications.

By social good we refer to a “good” or a service that benefits the largest number of people in the largest possible way. Some classic examples of social goods are, of course, healthcare, safety, environment, democracy, and human rights, but we can add to this classic list even communication, art, entertainment and much more.
In this context, the popularity of portable computing devices, like smartphones, tablets, or smart watches combined with the emergence of many other small smart objects with computational, sensing and communication capabilities coupled with the popularity of social networks and new human-technology interaction paradigms is creating unprecedented opportunities for each of us to do something useful, ranging from a single person to the whole world. Furthermore, Internet of Things, Smart-cities, distributed sensing and Fog computing are representative examples of modern ICT paradigms that aim to describe a dynamic and globally cooperative infrastructure built upon objects’ intelligence and self-configuring capabilities. These connected objects are finding their way into our pockets, vehicles, urban areas and infrastructure, thus becoming the very texture of our society and providing us the possibility, but also the responsibility, to shape it.
In GOODTECHS we are hence interested in experiences with the design, implementation, deployment, operation and evaluation of smart objects and technologies for social good. Clearly, we are not considering only the so called first world as the scenario for this evolution; we also refer to those areas where ICT is currently less widespread, hoping that it may represent a societal development opportunity rather than a source for further divide.
The event is endorsed by the European Alliance for Innovation, a leading community-based organisation devoted to the advancement of innovation in the field of ICT.
