ACM CIKM 2001 CALL FOR PAPERS
Tenth International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management
November 5-10, 2001, Atlanta, GA, USA
Sponsored by ACM SIGIR and ACM SIGMIS
CIKM has successfully brought together leading researchers and developers from several information
and knowledge management areas, databases and information retrieval in particular. We will continue this tradition
to foster further collaboration between information and knowledge management areas, defined broadly. We have special
interest in papers that bridge traditionally separated areas such as databases and information retrieval, or those
that apply techniques from one area to another. Areas of interest include and are not limited to:
Data and Knowledge Sharing
Data Mining, Knowledge Discovery
Data Warehouses, OLAP
Distributed Object Management
Digital Libraries
Electronic Commerce
Federated Information Systems
Heterogeneous and Distributed Systems
Hypertext and Hypermedia, Semi-Structured Data
Intelligent Search
Interactive Data Exploration
Intelligent Information Systems
Information Filtering and Summarization
Information Visualization
Information Classification and Organization
Intelligent Agents
Knowledge Management
Mobile and Wireless Data Management
Multimedia Databases
Non-traditional Databases
Paper Submission Instructions:
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered in another forum. At least one author is required to attend the conference and present the paper. An electronically submitted abstract will be required prior to the submission of the full paper. Manuscripts should contain no more than 5000 words and be printed on 10 or 12 size font. Electronic submission of manuscripts (in PDF, postscript, or ASCII formats) is expected. Submissions should include the paper title, abstract, name of authors, their affiliation, email address, and postal address. In addition, the author responsible for correspondence should include his/her telephone number and complete email address. The papers should be submitted electronically through the CIKM2001 Online Submission System (CLOSED). Papers that bridge two areas should be marked as BRIDGE papers, and they will be reviewed jointly by the appropriate PC sub-areas.

Industry Track Submission:
We solicit high-quality presentations that provide an in-depth technical discussion of:
- information and knowledge management products and marketplace trends
- requirements of novel applications
- important research problems from an industrial perspective
- lessons learned applying research results to real problems
By July 9, 2001 (firm), please submit one of the following to the industry track chair, Len Seligman (seligman@mitre.org):
- 1-2 page abstract (in pdf, postscript, or Word) describing your proposed presentation,
- 1-2 paragraph abstract plus draft presentation slides (in Powerpoint, pdf, postscript, or html), or
- full paper (in pdf, postscript, or Word), up to 5000 words, in 12 point font.
Accepted abstracts and papers will be published in the conference proceedings. In addition, selected papers
will be considered for publication in the Industry Perspectives section of SIGMOD Record.
Dates for Industry Track Submissions:
| Industry track abstracts/papers | July 9, 2001 (firm) |
| Acceptance notification | August 3, 2001 |
| Camera ready abstracts/papers | August 30, 2001 |
Panel Submission:
We solicit proposals for panels on exciting, new and controversial issues related to the conference topics. Proposals on topics that emphasize the interaction between areas, such as DB and IR, are particularly welcome. Panel proposals must be debate-oriented and must pose specific questions that panelists can be called to answer. A list of probable participants with their affiliation should be included in the proposal. Panel proposals should be submitted to the panel chair, Leo Mark (leomark@cc.gatech.edu), by June 4, 2001.
Tutorial Submission:
Tutorial proposals should identify the intended audience, the scope and the depth of material to be covered. Past experience and successes of the presenter will be considered positively. We are particularly interested in tutorials that foster knowledge exchange among the different research communities present at CIKM. The time allocated for the tutorial is 4 hours.
The length of tutorial proposals should not exceed 5 pages. They should be submitted to the tutorial program chair by email (karl.aberer@epfl.ch) before June 4, 2001.
Workshop Submission:
We solicit proposals for workshops related to the conference topics. Proposals should be submitted to the workshops chair, Il-Yeol Song (song@drexel.edu) by June 4, 2001. A workshop proposal should include title, theme, procedures for call for papers, and the organizing committee members.
