CALL FOR WORKSHOPS

Important Dates:

Workshop Day(s): June TBA, 2021

Submission email: umap2021-workshop@um.org

ACM UMAP 2021 is pleased to invite proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the conference. ACM UMAP is the premier international conference for researchers and practitioners working on systems that adapt to individual users or to groups of users, and which collect, represent, and model user information. The workshops provide a venue to discuss and explore emerging areas of User Modelling and Adaptive Hypermedia research with a group of like-minded researchers and practitioners from industry and academia.

Information about Hybrid Conference Format
ACM UMAP 2021 is planned to be a hybrid event, which welcomes everyone who is willing, able and allowed to travel in Utrecht, the Netherlands. However, there will also be an opportunity to attend the conference and the workshops online. Please check the conference website for updates: https://www.um.org/umap2021/

Workshops can therefore be held by the presenters at Utrecht (with synchronous online streaming), or designed as fully virtual workshops. The workshops will most probably be scheduled to start in the mornings or evenings local time (UTC+1).

Workshop Format
In this edition, our goal is to have a balanced workshop program comprising different workshop formats, combining newly emerging, currently evolving and established research topics. Different full-day and half-day workshop schemas are possible, such as:
• Working group meetings around a specific problem or topic; participants may be asked to submit a white paper or position statement
• Mini-conferences on specialized topics, having their own paper submission and review processes
• Mini-competitions or challenges around selected topics with individual or team participation
• Interactive discussion meetings focusing on subtopics of the UMAP general research topics.
• Joint panels for different workshops

Instructions for Proposers
Workshop proposals should not exceed 5 pages and should be organized as follows:
• Workshop title and acronym
• Workshop chair(s), including affiliation, email address, homepage, and experiences in organizing such events
• Abstract (up to 300 words) and topics of interest
• Motivation on why the workshop is of particular interest at this time
• Workshop format, discussing the mix of events such as paper presentations, invited talks, panels, and general discussions
• Intended audience and expected number of participants
• List of (potential) members of the program committee
• Requested duration (half day or full day)
• Proposed workshop format (e.g. hybrid or fully virtual)
• When available, past editions of the workshop, including URLs, a brief statement on the development of the workshop series, e.g., in terms of topics, number of paper submissions and participants, post-workshop publications over the years and acceptance statistics

Submission and Review Process
Workshop proposals should be submitted in PDF by email to: umap2021-workshop@um.org

We encourage both researchers and industry practitioners to submit workshop proposals.

Researchers interested in submitting a workshop proposal are invited to contact us in advance, so we can help to design successful proposals. In particular, for workshop proposals with novel interactive formats, we are happy to assist in further developing and implementing the ideas.
We strongly suggest involving organizers from different institutions, bringing different perspectives to the workshop topic. We welcome workshops with a creative structure that may attract various types of contributions and may ensure rich interactions.

The organizers of accepted workshops will prepare a workshop web site containing the call for papers and detailed information about the workshop organization and timeline. They will be responsible for their own publicity and reviewing processes.

There will be a conference adjunct proceedings published by ACM where all the workshop papers will be published. Hence, the workshop organizers will need to adhere to the adjunct proceedings publication timeline.

Proceedings and Registration Policy
