CALL FOR PAPERS
WIMS'14
4th International Conference on Web Intelligence, Mining and Semantics
Thessaloniki, Greece, 2-4 June 2014
http://wims14.csd.auth.gr

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.

Objectives
----------
The purpose of the WIMS series is:

- To provide a forum for established researchers and practitioners to
  present their contributions to the state of the art research and
  development in Web technology and applications

- To give doctoral students an opportunity to present their research to
  a friendly and knowledgeable audience and receive valuable feedback

- To provide an informal social event where Web technology researchers
  and practitioners can meet

WIMS traditionally hosts a small number of short tutorials on the topics
related to the scope of the conference series. The role of a WIMS
tutorial is to be a theme-oriented comprehensive survey. WIMS also
offers its infrastructure and facilities for the organizers of satellite
workshops that complement the scope of the conference. The calls for
WIMS'14 Tutorials and Workshops are published separately.

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
