------------------------------------------------- ICADL 2010 Call for Papers ** Apologies for Cross Postings ** ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ICADL 2010 CALL FOR PAPERS 12th International Conference on Asia-Pacific Digital Libraries (ICADL) Gold Coast, Queensland, June 21-25, 2010 http://www.icadl2010.org/ In conjunction with the 10th ACM/IEEE JCDL (Joint Conference on Digital Libraries). Conference Overview ------------------------------- ICADL welcomes submissions in the areas of computer science, library and information science and knowledge management involving applications to environmental sciences, social sciences, humanities and museum studies. Submissions associated with the ICADL 2010 theme, of "Digital Libraries in a Time of Global Change", as well as case studies and practical implementations are particularly welcome. The conferences welcome contributions from all fields associated with Digital Libraries including: * Information Visualisation * Search, retrieval and browsing interfaces to all forms of digital content * Data mining/extraction * Distributed information systems * eScience/eResearch data and knowledge management * Managing Collaborative Collections * Cultural Heritage Preservation * Studies of information behaviour and user needs and modelling * Insightful analyses of existing systems * Novel library content and use environments * Electronic publishing * Preservation systems and algorithms * Social Networking and Information Systems Paper Submission and Publication --------------------------------------------------- Authors may choose between two formats: full and short papers. Both formats will be rigorously peer reviewed. Full papers report on mature work or efforts that have reached an important milestone. Full papers must not exceed 10 pages. Short papers report on significant results that do not require the full paper length for exposition. Short papers might highlight exciting early results or can present theories or systems that can be described concisely in the limited space. Short papers must not exceed 4 pages. All papers must be original contributions and not previously published nor currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Papers must be written in English. All accepted papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings as part of Springer Verlag's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. All submissions should be made through this website and should conform to the LNCS formatting instructions. Submission instructions are available at: http://www.icadl2010.org/submitformat.php Important Dates --------------- Paper submission opening: Dec 20, 2009 Paper submission deadline: Jan 25, 2010 Poster and demonstration deadline: Jan 31, 2010 Tutorial, Panel and workshop proposals: Jan 31, 2010 Decision notification: March 15, 2010 Camera ready version: March 31, 2010 Conference: June 21-25, 2010 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers Joint Conference on Digital Libraries JCDL 2010 June 21-25, 2010 Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. http://www.jcdl2010.org/ Sponsored by ACM SIGIR, ACM SIGWEB, ASIS&T, and IEEE-CS TCDL The ACM/IEEE-CS Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL) is the major international research forum focused on digital libraries and associated technical, practical, and social issues. JCDL encompasses the many meanings of the term "digital libraries", including (but not limited to) new forms of information institutions; operational information systems with all manner of digital content; new means of selecting, collecting, organizing, distributing, and evaluating digital content; and theoretical models of information media, including document genres and electronic publishing. Digital libraries are distinguished from information retrieval systems because they include more types of media, provide additional functionality and services, and include other stages of the information life cycle, from creation through use. Digital libraries can also be viewed as an extension of the services libraries currently provide. The theme of JCL 2010 is “Digital Libraries – 10 years past, 10 years forward, a 2020 vision”. This theme reflects the fact that the context in which digital libraries were originally conceived has significantly changed in the context of new information models embodied in Web 2.0 and popular social networking applications. In this spirit, we are especially interested in papers that address and demonstrate new models of collaborative, participatory information interaction increasingly ubiquitous in the Web 2.0 context. JCDL 2010 invites submissions of papers and proposals for posters, demonstrations, tutorials, and workshops that will make the conference an exciting and creative event to attend. As always, the conference welcomes contributions from all the fields that intersect to enable Digital Libraries. Topics include, but are not limited to: · Collaborative and participatory information environments · Cyberinfrastructure architectures, applications, and deployments · Data mining/extraction of structure from networked information · Digital library and Web Science curriculum development · Evaluation of online information environments · Impact and evaluation of digital information in education · Information policy and copyright law · Personal digital information management · Retrieval and browsing · Social networks and networked information · Social-technical perspectives of digital information · Studies of human factors in networked information · Systems, algorithms, and models for data preservation · Theoretical models of information interaction and organization · Visualization of large-scale information environments Important Dates · All papers are due Monday, January 25, 2010 at 5 PM EST. · Demonstration submissions are due Monday, February 1, 2010 at 5 PM EST. · Tutorial proposals are due Monday, February 1, 2010 at 5 PM EST. · Poster submissions are due Monday, February 8, 2010 at 5 PM EST. · Workshop proposals are due Monday, February 15, 2010 at 5 PM EST. · Notification of acceptance to authors by March 15, 2010. · Doctoral consortium abstracts are due Wednesday, March 31, 2010.
