CALL FOR PAPERS
============================
*Workshop on Adaptation in Social and Semantic Web - (SasWeb2010)*
http://ailab.dimi.uniud.it/en/events/2010/sasweb/
e-mail: sasweb@uniud.it
Deadline for submission: March 29, 2010.
in connection with
UMAP 2010, Big Island of Hawaii, June 20-24, 2010.
*MOTIVATIONS*
------------
Social Web, also called Web 2.0, generates a significant part of Web
content and traffic: users collaborate, connect, create, share, tag,
remix, upload and download, new or existing resources in an architecture
of participation, where user contribution and interaction add value. Web
2.0 is growing daily, together with the number of users and applications.
Semantic Web, also called Web 3.0 or Intelligent Web, refers to the
incorporation of high-quality user contributed content and semantic
annotations using Internet-based services and Web 2.0 technology as an
enabling platform.This workshop aims at discussing the state-of-the-art,
open problems, challenges and innovative research approaches in
adaptation and personalization for Web 2.0 and Web 3.0. It provides a
forum for proposing innovative and open model, applications and new data
sharing scenarios, as well as novel technologies and methodologies for
creating and managing these applications. Examples of stimulating
application fields are social bookmarking environments, publication
sharing systems, social networking sites and in extend, digital
libraries and Learning 3.0.
Four specific questions motivate this workshop.
- How adaptation and personalization methodologies can augment Web 2.0
and Web 3.0 environments?
- What models, techniques, and tools are the most adequate to support
Web 2.0 and 3.0 users?
- What are the features and challenges of current applications and
services?
- How Semantic Web advances can be exploited for adaptation in such
context?
The list below provides the topics of interest of this workshop.
