WSDM (pronounced "wisdom") is one of the premier conferences on web-inspired research involving search and data mining. The 14th ACM International WSDM Conference will take place in Jerusalem, Israel between March 8-12, 2021.
The WSDM 2021 organizing committee invites proposals for full-day and half-day workshops to be held at the WSDM conference on March 12th, 2021. The topics of the proposed workshops should be aligned with those set forth in the call for papers of the main conference.
WSDM workshops provide a venue for exploring and discussing emerging research directions and applications. The format and content of each workshop will be determined by its organizers.
Workshop Organizer Tasks
The tasks of the workshop organizers are as follows:
- Handle the full reviewing process, including recruiting the Program Committee.
- Prepare a workshop website featuring the final program and proceedings.
- Publicize the workshop in the relevant communities.
- Prepare workshop notes to be distributed (possibly online) to attendees.
- Submit a workshop summary paper as part of the proceedings.
- At least two members of the organizers register and attend the workshop, and supervise the workshop operations.
Proposal Format
Workshop proposals, in no more than 5 pages (ACM formatting, sigconf style, submitted as PDF), should include the following information:
- Proposed workshop organizers (names, affiliations, and email addresses; identify one person as the primary contact person).
- Description of the workshop: objectives, goals, relevance to WSDM, and expected outcomes.
