************************************************************************

Information filtering has drastically changed the way information seekers
find what they are searching for. In fact, they effectively prune large
information spaces and help users in selecting items that best meet their
needs, interests, preferences, and tastes. These systems rely strongly on
the use of various machine learning tools and algorithms for learning how to
rank items and predict user evaluation.
Information Retrieval, on the other hand, attempts to address similar
filtering and ranking problems for pieces of information such as links,
pages, and documents. Information Retrieval systems generally focus on the
development of global retrieval techniques, often neglecting individual user
needs and preferences.

DART is focused on researching and studying new challenges in distributed
information filtering and retrieval. In particular, DART aims to investigate
novel systems and tools to distributed scenarios and environments.
Therefore, DART will contribute to discuss and compare suitable novel
solutions based on intelligent techniques and applied in real-world
applications.

SUBMISSIONS
**************

DART 2011 is aimed at putting together practitioners and researchers working
on pervasive and intelligent access to distributed information, multimedia,
and web services.

Submissions must be original contributions that neither have been published
nor have been under review for publication elsewhere.

Paper submissions should be limited to a maximum of 12 pages in the Springer
LNCS style (please see
http://www.springer.com/authors/book+authors?SGWID=0-154102-12-417900-0,
contributed book for details). Submissions will have a peer review by the
Program Committee on the basis of technical quality, relevance to the
workshop topics, originality, significance, and clarity.
To submit a paper please go to
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dart2011.

All accepted papers will be made available on DART website before the
beginning of the workshop. The corresponding-authors will be notified at all
time, for the submission, notification, and confirmation on the attendance.
Submitting a paper to the workshop means that, if the paper is accepted, at
least one author should attend the conference to present the paper and
should then register to the conference with a workshop fee.

** Topics of interest will include (but not are limited to):

- Web Information Filtering and Retrieval
- Web Personalization and Recommendation
- Web Advertising
- Web Agents
- Web of Data
- Semantic Web
- Semantics and Ontology Engineering
- Search for Social Networks and Social Media
- Natural Language and Information Retrieval in the Social Web
- Real-time Search
