Edit Event: WIMS 2018

Event description:

''WIMS is a series of peer-reviewed International Computer Science conferences. It is a forum for researchers and practitioners to present their state-of-the-art results in building Intelligent Web, to examine performance characteristics of various approaches in Web-based intelligent information technology, and to cross-fertilize their ideas on the development of Web-based intelligent information management solutions across different domains. The purpose of the WIMS series is: *To provide a forum for established researchers and practitioners to present their contributions to the state of the art research and development in Web technology and applications *To give doctoral students an opportunity to present their research to a friendly and knowledgeable audience and receive valuable feedback *To provide an informal social event where Web technology researchers and practitioners can meet WIMS traditionally hosts a small number of short tutorials on the topics related to the scope of the conference series. The role of a WIMS tutorial is to be a theme-oriented comprehensive survey. WIMS also offers its infrastructure and facilities for the organizers of satellite workshops that complement the scope of the conference. The calls for WIMS’2018 Tutorials and Workshops are published separately. Companies or individuals interested in presenting their industrial products or methodologies are invited to contact the conference chairs.

Four types of submissions are solicited for the main conference: *Regular research papers (12 ACM pages) *Short research papers (6 ACM pages) *Discussion, survey, or problem analysis papers (12 ACM pages) *Posters (4 ACM pages) Regular Research Papers. The papers in this category are the reports on the accomplished research work. They present a novel method, technique or analysis with appropriate empirical or other type of evaluation as a proof of validity. The main evaluation criteria for this category are originality, technical soundness, and the soundness of evaluation. Page Limit: 12 ACM pages. Short Research Papers. The papers in this category are the short reports of the preliminary results or describing the work in progress. The main evaluation criteria for this category are originality, technical correctness, and possible value of the planned results in a short to mid-term perspective. Short papers can be also presented in a form of a poster. Page Limit: 6 ACM pages. Discussion, Survey, or Problem Analysis Papers. The papers solicited in this category will not present any novel method, technique or approach to solving a problem, but help understand the problem itself. Within the genre, we expect receiving reasonable overviews placing a problem onto the state-of-the-art landscape and analyzing how far current solutions fall short. We also expect in-depth discussions and analysis of a certain problem, with clear definitions and argumentation in terms of qualitative or quantitative representation of the main characteristics of the problem. Page Limit: 12 ACM pages. Posters. WIMS poster track is a venue for late-breaking results, ongoing research activities, and speculative or innovative work in progress. This track is intended to provide authors and participants with the ability to connect with each other and to engage in discussions about the work. Posters provide authors with a unique opportunity to draw attention to their work during the conference. Page Limit: 4 ACM pages. The papers in all the categories should describe original results that have not been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be evaluated by at least three members of the international program committee. Submissions should be made electronically in PDF or DOC/DOCX (MS/Open Word) format via the electronic submission system of the WIMS’2018 Conference Management system at WIMS’18 Easychair page. The submissions should be typeset using the templates of the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS). The templates could be retrieved from the ACM website. ==Important Dates== *Paper submission - January 25, 2018 *Submission of tutorial and workshop proposals - January 20, 2018 *Notification of acceptance for tutorials and workshops - January 30, 2018 *Notification of acceptance for papers/posters - March 20, 2018 *Camera-ready versions of accepted papers, posters, tutorial papers - April 25, 2018 *Author registration and registration fee payment deadline - April 25, 2018 ==Committees== * General Chair ** [[has general chair::Mirjana Ivanovic]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia * General Co-Chairs ** [[has general co-chair::Sang-Wook Kim]], Hanyang University, Korea * PC Co-Chairs ** [[has program co-chair::Yannis Manolopoulos]], Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece ** [[has program co-chair::Riccardo Rosati]], Sapienza Università di Roma, Italy * Advisory Committee ** [[has Advisory Committee member::Grigoris Antoniou]], University of Huddersfield, UK ** [[has Advisory Committee member::Harold Boley]], University of New Brunswick, Canada ** [[has Advisory Committee member::James Hendler]], Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, NY, USA ** [[has Advisory Committee member::Guus Schreiber]], VU University, The Netherlands ** [[has Advisory Committee member::Takahira Yamaguchi]], Keio University, Japan ** [[has Advisory Committee member::Rajendra Akerkar]], Western Norway Research Institute, Norway (WIMS Conferences Chair) * Workshop Chair ** [[has workshop chair::Costin Bădică]], University of Craiova, Romania * Tutorial Chair ** [[has tutorial chair::Costin Bădică]], University of Craiova, Romania * Workshop Co-Chairs ** [[has workshop co-chair::Miloš Radovanović]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia ** [[has workshop co-chair::Miloš Savić]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia * Tutorial Co-Chair ** [[has tutorial co-chair::Miloš Radovanović]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia ** [[has tutorial co-chair::Miloš Savić]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia * Local Organizing Co-Chairs ** [[has local chair::Miloš Savić]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia (Chair) ** [[has local chair::Jovana Vidaković]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia (Co-Chair) ** [[has local chair::Brankica Bratić]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia ** [[has local chair::Jovana Ivković]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia ** [[has local chair::Saša Pešić]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia ** [[has local chair::Đurica Salamon]], University of Novi Sad, Serbia * Program Committee Members ** [[has PC member::Alberto Abelló]], Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Spain ** [[has PC member::Achilleas Achilleos]], University of Cyprus, Cyprys ** [[has PC member::Avi Arampatzis]], Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, Democritus University of Thrace, Greece ** [[has PC member::Costin Badica]], University of Craiova, Romania ** [[has PC member::Nick Bassiliades]], Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece ** [[has PC member::Zoran Bosnić]], University of Ljubljana, Slovenia ** [[has PC member::Lars Braubach]], University of Hamburg, Germany ** [[has PC member::Drazen Brdjanin]], University of Banja Luka, Bosnia and Hercegovina ** [[has PC member::David Camacho]], Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Spain ** [[has PC member::Barbara Catania]], University Genoa, Italy ** [[has PC member::Keith C.C.
