The WIMS’14 organizing committee invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the conference. The overall purpose of a workshop is to provide participants with the opportunity to present and discuss novel research ideas on 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 role of the workshops is to 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 workshops as they see fit, possibly including invited talks, panel discussions, presentations of work in progress, peer-reviewed papers, or some combination. A workshop could be scheduled for a half a day or a full day, depending on potential interest and organizers preference.
Workshops should address topics that satisfy the following criteria:
- The topic falls in the general scope of WIMS’14
- There is a clear focus on a specific theme, technology, problem, or application
- There is a sufficiently large audience interested in the topic
The organisers of successful workshops will be responsible for their own reviewing process, website and to coordinate the collection and delivery of camera ready material and ACM copyright transfer. Accepted papers in workshops will be published in the WIMS’14 proceedings and disseminated through the ACM Digital Library. Selected extended papers will be invited to appear in a special issue of a reputed journal in the field.
