Interested researchers can submit short papers of 2 - 4 pages. Topics of interest include -but are not limited to- the following.

- Tool chains for open data quality improvement (e.g., enrichment pipeline, versioning pipeline, quality assurance pipeline).

- Open data quality metrics and empirical evaluations.

- Good/bad practices in data disclosure.

- Assessment of the quality of data services (e.g., API to expose frequently changing data).

- Quality of linked data.

*** Submission guidelines ***

The workshop will feature invited talks as well as peer-reviewed paper presentations organized according to the topics categories defined above. Only extended and policy-oriented versions will be considered for publication in the Internet Policy Review.

Papers not exceeding 4 pages must be submitted electronically in .pdf format through EasyChair (see: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=odq2015 - you will need to create an account if you haven't one already) and conform to the Internet Policy Review guidelines (see: http://policyreview.info/authors). Each submission will be reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee and will be evaluated on the basis of novelty, relevance, and appropriate comparison to related work. The program committee will make final decisions about which submissions to accept for presentation at the workshop.

In a second step, papers automatically qualify as manuscripts for the Internet Policy Review. Only the papers that include a policy angle (i.e., refer to or discuss governance, norms, ordering, standards, or further regulation, law) will be considered. Manuscripts can be further developed based on the reviews received at the workshop, but they should not exceed 25,000 characters (including blank spaces).
