Preface of MEPDaW 2020: Managing the evolution and preservation of the data web

Abstract

The MEPDaW workshop series targets one of the emerging and fundamental problems of the Web, specifically the management and preservation of evolving knowledge graphs. During the past six years, the workshop series has been gathering a community of researchers and practitioners around these challenges. To date, the series has successfully published more than 30 articles allowing more than 50 individual authors to present and share their ideas. This 6th edition, virtually co-located with the International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2020), gathered the community around nine research publications and one invited keynote presentation. The event took place online on the 1st of November, 2020.
