Automating Commonsense Reasoning – Where Do We Stand?
Chair: Marco Montali
It is generally agreed that current AI systems are limited by their lack of commonsense knowledge and commonsense reasoning. However, there is no agreement on how to achieve those or even what they consist of. My talk will survey the state of the art. Why is common sense important for AI applications? What has been achieved? What remains challenging? What approaches have been taken, and what are their strengths and weaknesses?

The Future of E.M.E.A
Chair: Henderik A. Proper
The fields of enterprise modeling, enterprise engineering, and enterprise architecture (EMEA) seem to be “under pressure”. New enabling information technologies such as AI, Digital Twins, Block Chain, IoT, etc, appear to have a stronger interest and appreciation from funding sources. Specific concerns with high societal relevance and exposure, such as, compliance & regulation, optimization, and cyber security, also seem to draw away attention from the coherence, coordination and integration oriented perspectives that are core to the EMEA fields. Furthermore, the nature of the EMEA fields also makes it that they are, at an overall level, multi-disciplinary, involving many aspects, and integration, of computer & information sciences, management sciences, and social sciences. The latter also means that the EMEA fields spawn between the “worlds” of IEEE, ACM, and AIS. As a result, it looks as if the, already fragmented, EMEA fields increasingly lose ground, while also becoming increasingly fragmented. At the same time, it is not all gloom and doom. There is evidence, from industrial practice, that the coherence, coordination and integration oriented perspectives of EMEA is direly needed. Now more than ever.
The goal of this session is to kick-start a series of on-line discussions/webinars to discuss the future of the EMEA fields. This will include themes such as: future research agenda, formation of a stronger network, better communication/PR, dedicated special issues and journals, joint research proposals, etc. We also plan this series of discussions/webinars to “visit” future events such as EDOC, ER, EEWC, and PoEM. So, if you are active in the EMEA fields, and care about its future, then please join the discussion on:

The Design and Implementation of Data Distribution Systems
Chair: João Paulo A. Almeida
During the last couple of decades, the world saw numerous open data efforts that fell short of expectations. In this presentation, I will present the story of a long-term research effort, starting in academia and then moving into industry, focused on the design and delivery of several data distribution systems, including among others, the Observatory of Economic Complexity (oec.world), Data USA (datausa.io), and Data Mexico (datamexico.org). I use these examples to illustrate the common technical, institutional, and organizational challenges involved in the creation of data distribution systems, and show how these systems are used today to derive insight from data.
