WIMS-2014 **Call for Workshop Proposals*

The 4^th International Conference on Web Intelligence, Mining and 
Semantics (WIMS 2014) 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 2014 
(http://wims14.csd.auth.gr/)

* 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, and to co-ordinate 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.
