CFPFrom: Carlos SoaresDate: 24 Oct 2008 Subject: KDD-09 Call For Workshop Proposals, due Jan 19, 2009 KDD-2009: The Fifteenth ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD'09) Paris, France June 28 - July 1, 2009 The ACM KDD-2009 organizing committee invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the conference. The purpose of a workshop is to provide participants with the opportunity to present and discuss novel research ideas on active and emerging topics of knowledge discovery and data mining. A workshop should also support the interaction and feedback among topic specialists from academia, industry and government. A workshop may be organized around around industrial applications in a particular domain and the challenges this domain poses, such as the Netflix workshop on recommender systems . A workshop may also include a challenge problem, such as KDD-2007 time series classification workshop. A session with papers that address a challenge complements the more diverse sessions with regular papers and improves the potential for discussion. Because such challenges require extra time to plan, we may be willing to provide early notice of acceptance. The organizers of approved workshops are required to announce the workshop and call for papers, gather submissions, conduct the reviewing process and decide upon the final workshop program. They must also prepare an informal set of workshop proceedings to be distributed with the registration materials at the conference. They may choose to form organizing or program committees for assistance in these tasks. The logistics of the workshops will be done with the help from the ACM KDD-2009 organizers. IMPORTANT DATES:
Proposals should be no more than three pages in length and must include the following:
Workshop proposals should be sent by e-mail in either PDF/PS or ASCII format to the Workshop Chair: Carlos Soares, csoaresATfep.up.pt |
