Call For Workshop Proposals
International Conference
on Active Media Technology 2014 (AMT’14)
http://wic2014.mimuw.edu.pl/amt/homepage
=======================================================================
The Program Committees of the 2014 Web Intelligence Congress invite
proposals for workshops in all areas related to Active Media Technology,
its foundations and applications. WIC 2014 is a Special Event of Web25
celebrating 25 years of the Web. Active Media Technology 2014 (AMT'14)
will be collocated with three other top-quality international
conferences.
- IEEE/WIC/ACM Web Intelligence 2014 (WI'14)
- IEEE/WIC/ACM Intelligent Agent Technology 2014 (IAT'14)
- Brain Informatics & Heath 2014 (BIH'14)
The conferences are co-located in order to bring together researchers
and practitioners from diverse fields with the purpose of exploring the
fundamental roles, interactions and practical impacts of Artificial
Intelligence and Advanced Information Technology. The workshops will be
held within the Conference at the historical Central Campus of the
University of Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland, between 11th and 14th of August
2014.
The main objectives of the Active Media Technology 2014 workshops is to
stimulate and facilitate active exchange, interaction and comparison of
approaches, methods and ideas related to diverse areas of Active Media
Technology. Each workshop subject will focus on new and emerging
research challenges related to the themes of the conference. The
workshops should provide an informal and vibrant forum for researchers
and industry practitioners to share their research results and practical
development experiences in the field. The aim of the workshops should be
to provide the participants with an opportunity to discuss specific
technical topics in an atmosphere that fosters active exchange of ideas.
Workshops can typically focus on topics aligned to or specified in
general call for contributions but may not be restricted to those. The
topics cover all aspects of theoretical and applied aspects of Active
Media Technology including, but not limited to
- foundations of active media,
- ubiquitous intelligence and ubiquitous services,
- big data management for active media,
- data maining for active media,
- social network and social media,
- interactive systems and intelligent interfaces,
- active media engineering,
- active media applications.
Workshops may be full-day or half-day. A full-day workshop should select
10-14 regular papers, while a half-day workshop should select 5-7
regular papers, from a large number of submissions. Papers accepted for
AMT workshops will be published in the same volumes of LNCS/LNAI
proceedings as regular papers accepted for AMT 2014. Workshop papers
should be restricted to 10 pages.
============== WORKSHOP PROPOSAL SUBMISSIONS ========================
Workshop organizers should submit their proposals via the link
http://wic2014.mimuw.edu.pl/submit-proposal-wic-2014-event provided at
the home-page of the Web Intelligence Congress. All Workshop proposals
should include the following elements:
- Title of the workshop;
- Names of workshop organizers, affiliation, mailing address and e-mail
address;
- Short CV of organizers;
- A description of the topics of the workshop (not exceeding 200 words);
- Type of the workshop (full-day or half-day);
- A description of how the workshop will contribute to the field of
Active Media Technology;
- A short description on how the workshop will be advertised so as to
ensure a sufficiently wide range of authors and high quality papers;
- Information about previous offerings of the proposed workshop;
- A list of potential Program Committee members and
attendees/submissions and/or a justification of the expected attendees
and submissions.
================ WORKSHOP ORGANIZATION ==============================
Organizers, whose proposals are accepted, will be responsible for
advertising the workshop, forming the program committees, reviewing and
selecting the papers, all along guaranteeing high quality worthy of the
prestige and range of the Conference. The Conference will provide an
online paper submission and review system to support the workshops.
After the acceptance of a workshop proposal the organizer(s) should:
- Create a "Call for papers/participation" for the workshop
- Create a Web page for the workshop, the link of which will be
published on the Conference Web site
- Create a Board of Reviewers (Program Committee)
- Review and select papers
- Schedule the workshop program
The workshop organizers should ensure the presence of authors of
accepted papers at the workshops. Optionally, the workshop may be
started or concluded by a panel focusing on interesting aspects,
controversial issues, or unsolved problems to stimulate lively,
thoughtful, and thought-provoking debate; we expect the workshop
organizers to actively engage the audience and help them gain a deeper
understanding of the issues. The goal of a panel is to debate and thus
panels should always reflect more than one point of view.
The papers selected by the workshop organizers will also be reviewed by
the Workshop Chairs for their final acceptance. All submitted papers
will be reviewed on the basis of technical quality, relevance,
significance, and clarity. The workshop organizers will also have the
discretion of editing selected papers (after their expansion and
revision) into books or special journal issues. The acceptance rate for
workshops should follow the guidelines established by the Web
Intelligence Congress Chairs.
======================== REGISTRATION =================================
Workshop paper registration fees are the same as regular conference
fees. All registered participants are entitled to attend all keynotes,
sessions, workshops, panels, tutorials and social events. Workshop
organizers will receive one additional free registration against six
registered papers. Free registration can be used for one (or more) of
organizers or other person(s) approved by the organizers.
