About WIMS'14 Conference
--------------------------------------
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.
HIGHLIGHTS
-----------------
Proceedings published in ACM International Conference Proceedings Series.
Post-conference Special Issue at the International Journal on Artificial
Intelligence Tools (IJAIT).
Keynote Speakers:
- "Large-Scale Reasoning with (Semantic) Data": Grigoris Antoniou,
Professor, University of Huddersfield
- "Semantic Technology for online, broadcast and print media": Jem
Rayfield, Head Architect, Financial Times
- "Big Data – from Hype to Reality": Richard Benjamins, Dr., Director of
Business Intelligence, Telefonica
Venue & Accommodation: Porto Palace Hotel
(http://www.portopalace.gr/en), a luxurious five-star hotel in the city
of Thessaloniki. Low room prices have been secured for the WIMS 2014

who are also authors)
Call for Research Papers/Posters
--------------------------------------------
WIMS'14 is intended to foster the dissemination of state-of-the-art
research in the area of Web intelligence, Web mining, Web semantics and
the fundamental interaction between them. Authors are invited to submit
regular (12 pages) or short (6 pages) research papers or posters (4
pages) on all related areas. Papers exploring new directions or areas
will receive a thorough and encouraging review.
More details on the nature of the different submission types can be
found at:
http://wims14.csd.auth.gr/?page_id=23
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.
Submissions should be made electronically in PDF or DOC/DOCX (MS/Open
Word) format via the electronic submission system of the WIMS'14
Conference Management system at
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wims14
The submissions should be typeset using the templates of the ACM
International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS). The templates could
be retrieved from
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates
Call for Application and Case Study Track Papers
----------------------------------------------------------------
The goal of this track is to provide opportunities for researchers,
innovators, industry leaders, and practitioners to present and exchange
ideas, results, and experiences in the applications of Web Intelligence,
Mining, and Semantics (WIMS). The Application & Case Studies Track
invites submissions describing implementations of Web Intelligence,
Mining, and Semantics in industrial or government or other 'real world'
settings. Papers must include descriptions of how the applications have
been conceived, developed, and (probably) deployed.
Details about the submission types and the submission procedure of this
track can be found at:
http://wims14.csd.auth.gr/?page_id=154
Conference Scope
-------------------------
WIMS solicits regular and work-in-progress research, discussion papers
and industry experience report papers in related fields. Papers
exploring new directions or areas are also welcome. In particular but
not exclusively the submissions within the following major areas are
relevant:
- Scalable Web and Data Architectures and Infrastructures
- Web Intelligence
- Web Mining, Information and Knowledge Extraction
- Web Semantics and Reasoning
- WIMS Applications
- Evaluation and Validation of WIMS Technologies and Applications
More details about the conference scope and topics can be found at:
http://wims14.csd.auth.gr/?page_id=146
Publications
----------------
Accepted papers/tutorials/posters will be published by ACM and
disseminated through the ACM Digital Library through the International
Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS).
A selection of the best WIMS'14 papers will be invited to be revised and
extended for the post-conference publication in the Special Issue of the
International Journal on Artificial Intelligence Tools (IJAIT).
