Hi everyone! **** Apologies for cross-posting **** The 33rd ACM Conference on Hypertext and Social Media (ACM HT) Barcelona*, Spain, June 28 - July 1, 2022 https://ht.acm.org/ht2022/ *co-located with ACM UMAP 2022 ### Call for Papers ### Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are planning for a hybrid conference and will accommodate online presentations where needed. ACM HT - Hypertext and Social Media conference - is a premium venue for high-quality peer-reviewed research on hypertext theory, systems and applications. It is concerned with all aspects of modern hypertext research including social media, linked open data and knowledge graphs, information exploration and visualisation, dynamic and computed hypermedia, as well applications for digital arts, culture, and humanities. ACM HT is sponsored by ACM SIGWEB. The proceedings are published by the ACM and will be part of the ACM Digital Library. Tracks: ================== HT 2022 will explore, study and shape a broad range of dimensions faced by modern hypertext studies, covering the following tracks chaired by leading researchers: * Social web content, language and network (chair: Marcelo Armentano) * Digital humanities, culture and society (chair: Jessica Rubart) * Information exploration and visualisation (chair: Claus Atzenbeck) * Personalized recommender systems (chairs: Markus Zanker, Eva Zangerle, Osnat Mokryn) Submissions: ================== HT 2022 will include high-quality peer-reviewed papers related to the above key areas. Maintaining the high quality and impact of the HT series, each paper will have three reviews by program committee members and a meta-review presenting the reviewers' consensual view; the review process will be coordinated by the program chairs in collaboration with the corresponding area chairs. * Peer reviewed, original, and principled research papers addressing both the theory and practice of HT and papers showcasing innovative use of HT and exploring the benefits and challenges of applying HT technology in real-life applications and contexts are welcome. Papers should present original reports of substantive new research techniques, findings, and applications of HT. They should place the work within the field and clearly indicate innovative aspects. Research procedures and technical methods should be presented in sufficient detail to ensure scrutiny and reproducibility. Results should be clearly communicated and implications of the contributions/findings for HT and beyond should be explicitly discussed. * Length: Papers should be at most 14 pages and will be reviewed according to the presented contributions. In other words, we don’t have a distinct category for short papers, which means that papers, no matter what page length, will be reviewed according to the same criteria. Publication: ================== Accepted papers will be published by ACM and will be available via the ACM Digital Library. Extended versions of selected papers presented at the conference could be selected to appear in different special issues in international journals according to the specific tracks (see the web site for details). At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper there. Submission details will appear soon. Important Dates: ================== * 10 February 2022: Abstracts (mandatory) * 17 February 2022: Full Papers The submission time is 11:59pm AoE. Organization: ================== GENERAL CHAIRS Alejandro Bellogin, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid Ludovico Boratto, University of Cagliari PROGRAM CHAIR Federica Cena, University of Torino We look forward to your submissions!

ACM UMAP 2022 : First Call for Workshop and Tutorial Proposals

by Helma Torkamaan

Please accept our apologies in case of multiple receptions. Please send it to interested colleagues. -------------------------------------------------------- # **30th ACM International Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization (ACM UMAP'22)** Barcelona, Spain, and Online 4 - 7 July 2022 https://www.um.org/umap2022/ Proposal Submission Deadline: January 27, 2022 -------------------------------------------------------- **BACKGROUND AND SCOPE** ============================ **ACM UMAP'22** is pleased to invite proposals for workshops and tutorials to be held in conjunction with the conference. ACM UMAP is 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. We encourage both researchers and industry practitioners to submit workshop and tutorial proposals. We strongly suggest involving organizers from different institutions, bringing different perspectives to the workshop or tutorial topic. We welcome workshops and tutorials with a creative structure that may attract various types of attendees and ensure rich interactions. All the tutorials and workshops should support both virtual and physical attendance (although we hope physical to be the preferred option). -------------------------------------------------------- **Call for Workshop Proposals** ============================ The workshops provide a venue to discuss and explore emerging areas of User Modeling and Adaptive Hypermedia research with like-minded researchers and practitioners from industry and academia. -------------------------------------------------------- **Important Dates** ============================ - Proposals due: January 27, 2022 - Notification to proposers: February 10, 2022 - Workshop day(s): July TBD, 2022 All deadlines are 11:59 pm, AoE time (Anywhere on Earth). -------------------------------------------------------- **Workshop Formats** ============================ In this edition, our goal is to have a balanced workshop program, comprising workshops with different formats and addressing newly emerging, currently evolving and established research topics. Different schemas to organize the workshop are possible, such as: - Working group meetings around a problem or topic. - Mini-conferences on special 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. The detailed instructions for the proposal content, the submission, the responsibilities, the proceedings and the registration are provided at https://www.um.org/umap2022/call-for-workshops/. -------------------------------------------------------- **Call for Tutorial Proposals** ============================ Tutorials are intensive instructional sessions that provide a comprehensive introduction to established or emerging research topics of interest for the UMAP community. -------------------------------------------------------- **Important Dates** ============================ - Proposals due: January 27, 2022 - Notification to proposers: February 10, 2022 - Tutorial day: July TBD, 2022 All deadlines are 11:59 pm, AoE time (Anywhere on Earth). -------------------------------------------------------- **Tutorial Topics** ============================ An ideal tutorial should be broad enough to provide a basic introduction to the chosen area, but it should also cover the most important topics in depth. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - New user modeling technologies, methods, techniques, and trends (e.g., exploiting data mining and big data analytics for user modeling, evaluation methodologies, data visualization, etc.). - User modeling and personalization techniques for specific domains (e.g., health, e-government, e-commerce, cultural heritage, education, internet of things, mobile, music, information retrieval, human-robot interaction etc.). - Application and impact of the user modeling and personalization techniques for information retrieval and recommender systems, including beyond-accuracy aspects (e.g., fairness). - Eliciting and learning user preferences by taking into account users'; emotional state, physical state, personality, trust, cognitive factors. The detailed instructions for the proposal content, the submission, the responsibilities, the proceedings and the registration are provided at https://www.um.org/umap2022/call-for-tutorials/. -------------------------------------------------------- **Workshop and Tutorial Chairs** ============================ - Mirko Marras, University of Cagliari, Italy - Elvira Popescu, University of Craiova, Romania - Contact: [umap2022-wt@um.org](mailto:umap2022-wt@um.org)
