    *** New Call for Papers ***

    5th International Conference on Web Intelligence, Mining and Semantics

    WIMS 2015

    http://cyprusconferences.org/wims2015/

    *** New Submission Deadline: 16th May 2015 ***

    (Due to continuous submissions and many requests for additional time

    we have given a further extension to the submission deadline.

    Furthermore, this updated call includes new information about financial

    assistance to students, a special issue in a reputable journal with

    the best papers accepted at the conference, and invited speakers.)

    Conference Purpose and Scope

    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.

    * Give doctoral students an opportunity to present their research to a friendly

    and knowledgeable audience and receive valuable feedback.

    * 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. The call for WIMS 2015 tutorials

    is published separately.

    WIMS also offers its infrastructure and facilities for the organizers of satellite

    workshops that complement the scope of the conference. The call for WIMS

    2015 workshops is also published separately.

    Companies or individuals interested in presenting their industrial products or

    methodologies are invited to contact the conference chairs.

    Keynote Speakers

    * Dr. Diana Mayfield, University of Sheffield, UK

    "What you Tweet is What You Get: challenges and opportunities for social media

    analysis in industry".

    * Professor Nikolay Mehandjiev, University of Manchester, UK

    "Understanding the Tribal Web".

    Best Papers

    Selection of the best papers from the conference will be recommended for

    publication at the Elsevier Journal of Web Semantics,

    http://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-web-semantics/.

    Financial Assistance

    WIMS 2015 is offering up to $4000 as financial assistance for students whose

    papers are accepted at the conference.

    Submission Guidelines

    Four types of submissions are solicited for the main conference:

    i. Regular research papers

    ii. Short research papers

    iii. Case Studies and Applications papers

    iv. Posters

    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.

    Regular Research Papers

    The papers in this category are the reports on accomplished research work or

    in-depth discussions and analysis of a certain problem. The first type of

    papers can 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. For the second type 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

    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

    Case Studies and Applications Papers

    The papers in this category describe case studies of deployed applications,

    lessons learnt, and examples of measurable benefits. This category also

    includes papers that reports innovative applications of WIMS in areas of

    industry and government, as well as industrial experience and

    demonstrations of innovative systems.

    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

    Submissions should be made electronically in PDF or DOC/DOCX (MS/Open

    Word) format via the electronic submission system of the WIMS2015
