About the Editors:Marta Sabou is Senior Researcher at the Vienna University of Technology, where she leads a group of researchers in the area of semantic representation and integration of engineering data in the context of automation systems. She has a broad expertise in several Semantic Web research topics ranging from ontology engineering tasks (ontology creation, mapping, modularization) to the creation of intelligent systems that benefit from semantic information in domains as varied as tourism, climate change or open government. Her current interest is on data integration issues, with a special focus on the domain of industrial automation and Industrie 4.0.Stefan Biffl is Associate Professor of Software Engineering at the Institute of Software Technology and Interactive Systems, Vienna University of Technology. He is the head of the Christian Doppler research laboratory “Software Engineering Integration for Flexible Automation Systems”, which investigates concepts, methods, and tools for improving production systems engineering processes based on better integration of data in multi-disciplinary engineering projects. Stefan Biffl is also a supervisor in the doctoral college on "Cyber-Physical Production Systems" at the Vienna University of Technology. His current research interests include software and systems engineering, and product and process improvement.

• Part I: Background and Requirements of Industrie 4.0 for Semantic Web Solutions.- Part II: Semantic Web Enabled Data Integration in Multi-Disciplinary Engineering.- Part III: Intelligent Applications for Multi-Disciplinary Engineering.- Part IV: Related and Emerging Trends in the use of Semantic Web in Engineering.
