*** Last Call for Tutorials,
Demos and Workshops ***
5th International Conference on Web
Intelligence, Mining and Semantics
WIMS 2015
July 13-15, 2015, St. Raphael Resort,
Limassol, Cyprus
The 5th International Conference on Web
Intelligence, Mining and Semantics
(WIMS 2015) organization committee invites
proposals for tutorials,
demonstrations (on new applications) and
workshops providing in-depth
background on subjects that are of broad
interest to the Web Mining and Web
Semantics community. The overall purpose of
tutorials and workshops is to
provide participants with the opportunity to
present and discuss novel
research ideas in areas of Web intelligence,
Web mining and Web semantics,
with a particular emphasis on the fundamental
interaction between these
vibrant fields of research and development.
The purpose of demonstrations
is to provide developers with a place to
showcase new practical and innovative
implementations of state-of-the-art systems
in the areas of interest to the
Web Intelligence and Semantics community.
Tutorials and workshops provide a forum for
an intensive and focused
scientific exchange amongst researchers and
practitioners interested in a
particular topic and a meeting venue for the
community. Organizers may
structure tutorials/workshops as they see
fit, possibly including invited talks,
panel discussions, presentations of work in
progress, peer-reviewed papers,
demonstrations or some combination. A
tutorial/workshop could be
scheduled for a half a day or a full day,
depending on potential interest and
organizers preference.
The proposals should address topics that
satisfy the following criteria:
* The topic falls in the general scope of
WIMS 2015
* There is a clear focus on a specific theme,
technology, problem, or
application.
* There is a sufficiently large audience
interested in the topic.
The organizers of successful workshops will
be responsible for their own
reviewing process, website, arranging invited
speakers and coordinate the
collection and delivery of camera ready
material. There is an opportunity for
papers accepted in workshops to be published
in the WIMS 2015 proceedings
and disseminated through the ACM Digital
Library, provided they follow the
ACM submission guidelines and template and
adhere to camera-ready
submission and registration deadlines as
those set for the main conference.
Selected extended papers will be invited to
appear in a special issue of a
reputed journal in the field.
