These proceedings contain the papers accepted for presentation at the Second International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2003) held on Sanibel Island, Florida, U. S. A. , October 20-23, 2003. Following the success of ISWC 2002 that washeldinSardiniainJune2002,ISWC2003enjoyedagreatlyincreasedinterest in the conference themes. The number of submitted papers more than doubled compared with ISWC 2002 to 283. Of those, 262 were submitted to the research track and 21 to the industrial track. With rare exceptions, each submission was evaluated by three program committee members whose reviews were coordinated by members of the senior program committee. This year 49 papers in the research track and 9 papers in the industrial track were accepted. The high quality of ISWC 2003 was the result of the joint e?ort of many people. First of all we would like to thank the authors for their high-quality submissions and the members of the program committee for their reviewing and review coordination e?orts. We would like to extend special thanks to Christoph Bussler for chairing the industrial track, to Mike Dean for his help with the conference management software, the web site, and conference publicity, and to Massimo Paolucci for helping with the organization of the proceedings and arranging sponsorships.

Katia Sycara received her PhD in Computer Science from Georgia Institute of Technology and holds an Honorary Doctorate from the University of the Aegean (2004). She is a Fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) and the recipient of the 2002 ACM/SIGART Agents Research Award. She has given numerous invited talks, and has authored or co-authored more than 300 technical papers dealing with Multiagent Systems, Agents Supporting Human Teams, Human-Agent Interaction, Negotiation, Multi-Agent Learning and the application of these techniques to crisis action planning, scheduling, operations planning and e-commerce. She has served as the Program Chair of the Second International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2003), as General Chair of the Second International Conference on Autonomous Agents (Agents 98). She is a founding member and member of the Board of Directors of the International Foundation of Multiagent Systems (IFMAS). She is a founding member of the Semantic Web Science Association, and serves as the US co-chair of the US-Europe Semantic Web Services Initiative.
