SUMMARY:3rd Workshop on Foundational Ontology (FOU
 ST III) , Graz, Austria
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190923
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190925
LOCATION:Graz, Austria
DESCRIPTION:Foundational ontologies are attempts t
 o systematise those categories of thought or reali
 ty which are common to all or almost all subject-m
 atters. Commonly considered examples of such categ
 ories include 'object', 'quality', 'function', 'ro
 le', 'process', 'event', 'time', and 'place'. Amon
 gst existing foundational ontologies, there is bot
 h a substantial measure of agreement and some dram
 atic disagreements. There is currently no uniform 
 consensus concerning how a foundational ontology s
 hould be organised, how far its 'reach' should be 
 (e.g., is the distinction between physical and non
 -physical entities sufficiently fundamental to be 
 included here?), and even what role it should play
  in relation to more specialised domain ontologies
 .  The purpose of this workshop is to provide a fo
 rum for researchers to present work on specific fo
 undational ontologies as well as foundational onto
 logies in general and their relations to each othe
 r and to the wider ontological enterprise. The FOU
 ST III workshop will be co-located with the Joint 
 Ontology Workshops (JOWO 2019).  We encourage diff
 erent types of contribution: full research paper (
 not exceeding 10 pages) and short papers (not exce
 eding 6 pages). Both types must include an abstrac
 t of no more than 300 words.
