The WWW2013 Poster Track will continue the established tradition of providing an interaction opportunity for researchers and practitioners to present and demonstrate their new and innovative work-in-progress, and to obtain feedback from their peers in an informal setting. It gives conference attendees a forum where they can learn about novel on-going research projects that might not yet be complete, but whose preliminary results are already interesting. It also provides poster presenters with an excellent opportunity to receive invaluable feedback from knowledgeable sources.

Posters will be peer-reviewed by members of the Poster Committee based on originality, significance, quality, and clarity. Poster authors are not required to transfer copyright. Accepted poster papers will be allocated 2 pages in the conference proceedings. In addition to the 2-page submission, accepted poster authors will be asked to create a poster and possible demonstration to be displayed in a dedicated poster area, and present their work during a poster session at the conference. To encourage high-quality submissions, awards will be presented to the Best Poster and the Best Student Poster.

For the list of topics for poster submissions, please see the list of individual tracks/topics in the WWW2013 Call for Research Papers, as well as the list of topics in the WWW2013 Call for Practice and Experience Papers. Please select the appropriate topic when submitting to the Poster Track.

Submission Guidelines

Poster submissions must be formatted according to the ACM SIG Proceedings Template and are limited to two pages. It is the authors' responsibility to ensure that their submissions adhere strictly to the required format. In particular, the format cannot be modified with the objective of squeezing in more material. Submissions that do not comply with the formatting guidelines will be rejected without review. Submissions must be in PDF/A, and must be done through the EasyChair system.

At least one of the authors of an accepted poster is required to attend the conference and present the poster.
