ICDM 2016: Call for Workshop Proposals

conference. By the unique ICDM tradition, all accepted workshop papers will
be published in a formal proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society Press.
Workshop proposals should be submitted in plain text or PDF, by email to
Workshop Chairs, Carlotta Domeniconi (cdomenic@gmu.edu) and Francesco Gullo
(gullof@acm.org), and must include the following elements:

   - Title and acronym of the workshop
   - Duration (full-day or half-day)
   - Description of the workshop topic, and a draft version of CFP (not

   - Past records (if any)
   - Short bio of the organizers
