The Semantic Web aims at allowing knowledge to be freely accessed and - changed by software. It is now widely recognized that if the Semantic Web is to contain deep knowledge, the need for new representation and reasoning te- niques is critical. These techniques need to ?nd the right trade-o? between - pressiveness, scalability, and robustness to deal with the inherently incomplete, contradictory, and uncertain nature of knowledge on the Web. The annual International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (RR) addresses these needs and has grown into a major international forum for the discussion and dissemination of new results concerning Web Reasoning and Rule Systems. The ?rst three International Conferences on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (see http://www.rr-conference.org), held in Innsbruck, A- tria (2007), Karlsruhe, Germany (2008), and Chantilly, Virginia, USA (2009), received enthusiastic support from the Web Reasoning community. This volume contains the papers presented at the Fourth International C- ference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems (RR 2010), which was held in Bressanone/Brixen, Italy, September 22-24, 2010, and which continued the - cellence of the RR series. It contains nine full papers, six short papers, four poster/position papers, one PhD paper, and two system descriptions, which wereselectedoutof31submissionsfollowinga rigorousreviewingprocess,where each submission was reviewed by at least three program committee members.
