OntoGame @ ESWC 2008

We are happy to announce that our paper, describing the OntoGame series, has been accepted for publication at the European Semantic Web Conference (ESWC) 2008 in Tenerife, Spain.

In the paper, we describe the OntoGame idea and the generic OntoGame platform. We also delineate gaming scenarios for various tasks plus our respective prototypes. Based on the analysis of user data and interviews with players, we provide preliminary evidence that users enjoy the games and are willing to dedicate their time to those games and are able to produce high-quality conceptual choices.
