Call
for Workshop Proposals
2006 IEEE/WIC/ACM International
Joint
Conference on Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent
Technology
(WI-IAT'06)
Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition
Centre, Hong Kong, China,
18-22 December 2006.
(Workshop Proposals Due: 10 April
2006)
===================================================================
The Program Committees of the 2006
IEEE/WIC/ACM International Joint
Conference on Web Intelligence and
Intelligent Agent Technology
(WI-IAT'06) invite proposals for
Workshops. The Workshops will be
held at the beginning of the
Conference, December 18, 2006 at Hong
Kong Convention and Exhibition
Centre.
The workshop organizers will be
responsible for advertising the
workshop, forming the program committees,
reviewing and selecting the
papers, and guaranteeing a high quality worthy of
the prestige and
range of the Conference. All papers accepted for
workshops will be
included in the Workshop Proceedings, which are expected to
be
published by IEEE Computer Society Press and will be available at
the
workshops.
The workshop organizers will also have the
discretion of editing
selected papers (after their expansion and revision)
into books or
special journal issues. Workshops may be full-day or
half-day. A
full-day workshop should select 20-25 regular papers, while a
half-day
workshop should select 10-13 regular papers, from a large number
of
submissions. The workshop organizers should ensure the presence
of
authors of accepted papers at the workshops.
I. Workshop Topics
Each workshop subject will focus on new
research challenges and
initiatives in Web Intelligence (WI) and Intelligent
Agent Technology
(IAT). The workshops should provide an informal and
vibrant forum for
researchers and industry practitioners to share their
research results
and practical development experiences in these two
fields. Suggested,
but not limited to, workshop topics
include:
- Intelligent E-Technology (including
E-Science, E-Business,
E-Learning, E-Finance, E-Government, E-Community)
- Intelligent Human-Web
Interaction
- Knowledge Grids and Grid Intelligence
- Semantics and
Ontology Engineering
- Social Networks and Social Intelligence
-
Ubiquitous Computing
- Web Agents
- Web Information Filtering and
Retrieval
- Web Mining and Forming
- Web Security, Integrity, Privacy and
Trust
- Web Services and Grid Services
- Web Support Systems
- World
Wide Wisdom Web (W4)
- Agent Systems Modeling and Methodology
-
Autonomous Knowledge and Information Agents
- Autonomous Auctions and
Negotiation
- Autonomy-Oriented Computing (AOC)
- Learning and
Self-Adapting Agents
- Distributed Intelligence
II. Workshop Proposal
Submission
Workshop proposals should include the
following elements:
- Title of the workshop
- Your name,
affiliation, mailing address and e-mail address
- A description of the
topic of the workshop (not exceeding 200 words)
- Type of the workshop
(full-day or half-day)
- A description of how the workshop will contribute to
the field of
Web Intelligence and/or Intelligent Agent
Technology
- A short description on how the workshop will be advertised so as
to ensure a sufficiently wide range of authors and high quality
papers
After the acceptation of a workshop
proposal the organizer(s) should:
- Create a "Call for papers/participation"
for the workshop
- Create a Web page for the workshop, the link of which
will be published
on the Conference Web site
- Create a Board of
Reviewers (Program Committee)
- Review and select papers
- Schedule the
workshop activities
Those papers selected by a workshop
organizer will also be reviewed by
the Workshop Co-Chairs for final
acceptance.
All submitted papers will be reviewed on
the basis of technical
quality, relevance, significance, and
clarity.
We will provide an online paper submission
and review system
to support the workshops.

Workshop
Co-Chairs:
Cory J. Butz, University of Regina,
Canada

Note: we will not have a separate workshop
registration fee this year
(i.e., only one conference registration covers
everything).
For your information, the WI-IAT'06
conference will be co-located with
the IEEE International Conference on Data
Mining (ICDM'06) for
providing synergism among the three research areas. It
will provide
opportunities for technical collaboration beyond that of
previous
conferences. The three conferences will have the joint
opening,
keynote, reception, and banquet. Attendees only need to register
one
conference and can attend sessions across the three conferences.
We
are planning to have a joint panel and joint paper sessions
that
discuss common problems in the three areas.
