Preface
The nature of conceptual thinking constitutes a central topic in a variety of scientific disciplines. Since 1993, the International Conference on Conceptual Structures (ICCS) has served as a platform that brings together researchers and practioners in information and computer sciences as well as social science to explore novel ways of representing and analyzing conceptual knowledge. Originally centered around research on knowledge representation and reasoning with conceptual graphs, over the years ICCS has broadened its scope to include innovations from a wider range of theories and related practices, among them other forms of graph-based formalisms like RDF or existential graphs, formal concept analysis, Semantic Web technologies, ontologies, concept mapping and more. Today, ICCS draws inspiration from areas as diverse as artificial intelligence, knowledge representation and reasoning, applied mathematics and lattice theory, computational linguistics, conceptual modeling and design, diagrammatic r
