CFP ACM Symposium on Document Engineering, Sep 10-13 2013

Dear all,
this is a symposium that wishes to broaden its  scope to include digital
libraries, eBooks, covering underling technologies such as **annotations**
and also usability.

Best,
Paolo

CFP ACM Symposium on Document Engineering, Sep 10-13 2013
http://www.doceng2013.org

You are invited to submit original papers to the 13th ACM Symposium on
Document Engineering (DocEng 2013), to be held at the University of
Florence. Attendees at this international forum have interests that span
all aspects of document engineering and applications. DocEng is sponsored
by ACM by means of the ACM SIGWEB Special Interest Group. Proceedings are
available through the ACM Digital Library.

Symposium format
DocEng is a single track conference attended by a community of academic and
industrial researchers. It will be preceded by one day of workshops and
tutorials.

Paper submission
Authors are invited to submit original work in one of the following forms:
* Full papers describe complete works of research: due April 7, 2013
* Short papers/posters/demos report on research in progress, novel
challenges, visions or systems: due May 22, 2013
* Workshop/tutorial proposals: Friday, March 15, 2013

Scope of symposium
Documents are communication artifacts in any form and in any media; they
can be simple or compound, static or time-varying, private or open.
Document collections increasingly underpin research, education, commerce,
entertainment – the full range of human activity. Document engineering
covers both the innovative use of documents and document collections in
real-world applications and the study of principles, tools and processes
that improve our ability to create, manage, maintain, share, and
productively use these. Topics relevant to the symposium include (but are
not limited to):

Modeling and Representation:
•    Document representation and standards including interchange standards,
markup languages (inc. SGML), style  sheets, type representation,
multimedia (incl. HTML-5,  MPEG, SMIL, SVG), eBook standards (ePub)
•    Metadata creation and standards, use of semantic web technologies
•    Hypertext/hypermedia, distributed documents, blogs, wikis
•    Linking techniques and standards, integration with other digital
artifacts

Generation, Manipulation, and Presentation:
•    Document authoring tools and systems
•    Document presentation (typography, formatting, layout) algorithms and
systems (TeX, browsers)
•    Automatically generated documents, automated layout and composition,
variable data printing
•    Adaptive, responsive documents, content customization
•    Mobile platforms and documents
•    Document transformation and rich-web-client models

Collections, Systems, and Management:
•    Collections databases and repositories, storage, indexing, retrieval,
 versioning, deduplication
•    Enterprise content management: models and standards (CMIS), scale and
performance, platforms and applications
•    Digital libraries and archives, preservation systems
•    Document system components: security, APIs (SAX, DOM), versioning,
synchronization
•    Document systems and workflows

Document Analysis:
•    Structure and representation analysis (layout, OCR, visual analysis)
•    Linguistic and semantic (content) analysis, categorization,
classification

Internationalization:
•    Document internationalization, multilingual representations
•    Multi-lingual and cross-lingual indexing and search

User Experience:
•    Navigation, search
•    Usability, accessibility, readability and aesthetics
•    Collaborative authoring and editing, curation and annotation
•    Workflows, integration and interaction between human and automated
processes

Applications:
•    Digital humanities, digital preservation and archiving
•    eBooks and digital publishing
•    and all other application areas

Students presenting their work at DocEng 2013 will be eligible to apply for
SIGWEB Student Travel Awards.  More information will follow in due course.
