---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACM UMAP 2020, the premier international conference for researchers and
practitioners working on systems that adapt to individual users or to
groups of users, and which collect, represent, and model user
information, is pleased to invite proposals for workshops to be held in
conjunction with the conference. The workshops provide a venue to
discuss and explore emerging areas of User Modelling and Adaptive
Hypermedia research with a group of like-minded researchers and
practitioners from industry and academia.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Workshop Format*
In this edition, our goal is to have a balanced workshop program
comprising different workshop formats, combining newly emerging,
currently evolving and established research topics. Different full-day
and half-day workshop schemas are possible, such as:
Working group meetings around a specific problem or topic;
participants may be asked to submit a white paper or position statement
Mini-conferences on specialized topics, having their own paper
submission and review processes
Mini-competitions or challenges around selected topics with
individual or team participation
Interactive discussion meetings focusing on subtopics of the UMAP
general research topics
Joint panels for different workshops
*Instructions for Proposers*
Workshop proposals should not exceed 5 pages and should be organized as
follows:
Workshop title and acronym
Workshop chair(s), including affiliation, email address, homepage,
and experiences in organizing such events
Abstract (up to 300 words) and topics of interest
Motivation on why the workshop is of particular interest at this time
Workshop format, discussing the mix of events such as paper
presentations, invited talks, panels, and general discussions
Intended audience and expected number of participants
List of (potential) members of the program committee (at least 50%
have to be confirmed at the time of the proposal)
Requested duration (half day or full day)
When available, past editions of the workshop, including URLs, a
brief statement on the development of the workshop series, e.g., in
terms of topics, number of paper submissions and participants,
post-workshop publications over the years and acceptance statistics
*Submission and Review Process*
Workshop proposals should be submitted in PDF format via Easychair
submission site:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=umap2020
We encourage both researchers and industry practitioners to submit
workshop proposals.
Researchers interested in submitting a workshop proposal are invited to
contact us in advance, so we can help to design successful proposals. In
particular, for workshop proposals with novel interactive formats, we
are happy to assist in further developing and implementing the ideas.
We strongly suggest involving organizers from different institutions,
bringing different perspectives to the workshop topic. We welcome
workshops with a creative structure that may attract various types of
contributions and may ensure rich interactions.
The organizers of accepted workshops will prepare a workshop web site
containing the call for papers and detailed information about the
workshop organization and timeline. They will be responsible for their
own publicity and reviewing processes.
There will be a conference adjunct proceedings published by ACM where
all the workshop papers will be published. Hence, the workshop
organizers will need to adhere to the adjunct proceedings publication
timeline.
