=================================================== RecSys 2014: CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS ===================================================

8th ACM International Conference on Recommender Systems (RecSys 2014)

October 6-10, 2014, Foster City, Silicon Valley, USA http://recsys.acm.org/recsys14/ Submission Deadline: April 7th 2014

=================================================== CALL FOR PROPOSALS ===================================================

RecSys 2014 is pleased to invite proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the conference. The goal of the workshops is to provide additional venues for presenting research on topics of interest and an informal forum to discuss research questions and challenges.

We encourage proposals for a wide range of workshops, including but not limited to:

* Working group meetings organized around a specific problem; such workshops may wish to ask participants to submit a short white paper or position statement. * One day mini-conferences on specialized topics; such workshops may have their own paper submission and review processes. * Mini-competitions or challenges around selected topics with individual or team participation.

We welcome proposals for half-day and full-day workshops.

We encourage you to contact us in advance with workshop ideas; we will work with prospective workshop organizers to help them design successful proposals. We actively encourage both researchers and industry practitioners to submit proposals.
