Call for Workshops, Demonstrations and Tutorials Proposals at WIMS2015

       Call for Workshops, Demonstrations and Tutorials Proposals

      http://cyprusconferences.org/wims2015/

       The 5th International Conference on Web Intelligence, Mining and
       Semantics (WIMS 2015) organizing committee invites proposals for
       workshops, demonstrations (on new applications) and tutorials to be
       held in conjunction with the conference. The overall purpose of
       workshops and tutorials 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.

       Workshops and tutorials 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/tutorials as they see fit,
       possibly including invited talks, panel discussions, presentations of
       work in progress, peer-reviewed papers, demonstrations or some
       combination. A workshop/tutorial could be scheduled for a half a day
       or a full day, depending on potential interest and organizers
       preference.

       Workshops and tutorials should address topics that satisfy the
       following criteria:

           The topic falls in the general scope of WIMS 2015 (
       Cyprusconferences.org/wims2015)
           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 and tutorials will be
       responsible for their own reviewing process, website, arranging
       invited speakers and co-ordinate the collection and delivery of
       camera ready material. There is an opportunity for papers accepted in
       workshops to be published in the WIMS`15 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.
