Call for Papers
ACM Eighteenth Conference on Information and Knowledge Management CIKM 2009, Hong Kong, November 2-6, 2009
http://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/conference/cikm2009/about/
Sponsored by: ACM SIGIR, SIGWEB
THEME: CIKM 2009 (ACM 18th Conference on Information and Knowledge Management) will be held on November 2-6, 2009, Hong Kong, China. Since 1992, CIKM has successfully brought together leading researchers and developers from the database, information retrieval, and knowledge management communities. The purpose of the conference is to identify challenging problems facing the development of future knowledge and information systems, and to shape future research directions through the publication of high quality, applied and theoretical research findings. In CIKM 2009, we will continue the tradition of promoting collaboration among multiple areas. We encourage submissions of high quality papers on all topics in the general areas of databases, information retrieval, and knowledge management. Papers that bridge across these areas are of special interest and will be considered for a "Best Interdisciplinary Paper" award. Topics of interest in the three tracks include, but are not lim! ited to:
Databases: - Data Adaptability, Quality, Reusability and Adaptability - Information Integration, Data Provenance, Probabilistic Databases - Mobile and Distributed Data Management - Query Optimization - Security and Data Privacy - Semantic Web - Streams, Network Databases - String Databases, Blogs and Social Search - Systems, Platforms, Middleware, Applications and Experiences - User Experience (Languages, Models, Interfaces) - XML Data Processing, Filtering, Routing, and Algorithms - Novel Data Management Tools - Data Warehousing and OLAP
Information Retrieval: - Citation Analysis, Social Networks for IR - Domain-Specific IR (e.g., Legal IR, Genome, Mobile IR, IR for Chemical Structures) - Filtering (e.g., Routing, Collaborative Filtering, Topic Tracking, Recommender Systems) - Foundation of Information Retrieval (e.g., Theory, Ranking) - IR Architectures, Scalability and Efficiency - IR Evaluation - Language Specific IR (Multi-Lingual, Cross-Lingual, NLP) - Machine Learning for IR - Multimedia IR (Audio, Speech, Video, Image) - Semi-Structured Information Retrieval - User Modeling for IR, Search Personalization - Web Search, Advertising, Adversarial
Knowledge Management: - Advertising and Optimization - Classification and Clustering - Data Pre- and Post-Processing - Information Extraction - Information Filtering and Recommender Systems - Knowledge Synthesis and Visualization - Large-scale Statistical Techniques - Link and Graph Mining - Semantic Techniques - Temporal and Spatial Data Mining - Text Mining
Industry track: - Industrial Practice and Experience - Technology for Developing Regions
Paper Submissions for CIKM 2009 ===============================
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered for publication in any other forum. Manuscripts should be submitted electronically, in PDF format and formatted using the ACM camera-ready templates available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html. Papers cannot exceed 10 pages in length. In addition to the regular full-length papers, the program committee will accept some as poster papers (two pages).
Note: Submission procedure is the same for all areas.
Uploading instructions and more detailed submission instructions for papers, workshop, and tutorial proposals are available at the conference website (http://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/conference/cikm2009/about/).
One author per paper is required to register and attend the conference to present the paper if accepted for publication.
Awards and Journal Special Issues =================================
A "Best Interdisciplinary Paper" award will be given to the best paper that bridges at least two of the general areas of interest to the conference, namely databases, information retrieval, and knowledge management. A "Best Student Paper" award will be selected among the papers whose first author is a student. A set of selected papers will be published as special issues in three SCI indexed journals: Data and Knowledge Engineering, Knowledge and Information Systems: An International Journal, The International Journal of Data Mining and Bioinformatics.
Industrial Papers =================
Industry authors are also invited to submit papers describing solutions in the domains addressed by this conference, focusing on the technical aspects of their work. The submission procedure for industrial papers is the same as for research papers.
Workshops ========= Thirteen different workshops will be held with CIKM 2009. Please refer to http://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/conference/cikm2009/program/workshops.htm for the list of the workshops. Please contact CIKM 2009 workshop chairs Min Song at min.song@njit.edu and Wook-Shin Han at wshan@knu.ac.kr, if you have any questions on the workshops.
Tutorial Proposals ==================
Tutorial proposals should be directly emailed to the Tutorial co-Chairs, Mike Ng at mng@math.hkbu.edu.hk and Masatoshi Yoshikawa at yoshikawa@i.kyoto-u.ac.jp, by July 15, 2009.
Demo Papers ===========
Demonstration papers cannot exceed 2 pages in length, which describe system components, implementation techniques, and contributions as well as interactive demonstration plan. They also have to include URLs for the web sites of their systems (or the information for verifying them). Uploading instructions and more detailed submission instruction for demonstration papers are available at the conference website (http://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/conference/cikm2009). For more details, contact Demo Chairs: "Lei Chen" leichen@cse.ust.hk and "Jin-Ho Kim" jhkim@kangwon.ac.kr.
