MEDES-SW (Student Workshop) - CALL FOR PAPERS
Workshop papers are also published by ACM and indexed by the ACM Digital Library.
The MEDES-SW 09, to be held in conjunction with the international ACM conference Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems (MEDES 2009), aims at facilitating interactions among young researchers and at offering students the opportunity to discuss and exchange ideas about current and future works. We encourage Master degree students and doctoral PhD students to submit a paper relating their work. Papers should clearly describe the problem (a clear formulation of the research topic), explain why it is important, detail what are the existing solutions and why they are not convenient, and give a description of the proposed approach and its expected contributions. There should be enough substance to provide discussion, but the work does not need to be complete.
Student Workshop topics are similar to main conference topics. Therefore, the topics of interest include the following, but are not limited to them:
- - Digital Ecosystem Infrastructure
- - Web Technologies
- - Social Networks
- - Data and Knowledge Management Systems
- - Multimedia Information Retrieval
- - Ontology Management
- - Services Systems and Engineering
- - E-Services , E-Learning, E-Humanities and E-Government
- - Emergent Intelligence
- - Game Theory
- - Networks and Protocols
- - Security and Privacy
- - Standardization and Extensible Languages
- - Human-Computer Interaction
- - Business Intelligence
- - B2B, B2C, B2A, E-Commerce, E-Business
- - E-Marketing and E-Procurement
- - Digital Library
- - Open source

The author of an accepted paper is expected to attend the workshop. More precisely, accepted papers must be presented during MEDES-SW in order to be included in the proceedings (and thus being indexed by ACM Digital Library). In order to ensure a better communication around the works, a poster illustrating these latter will be required. "Best student paper" and "Best student presentation" will be awarded at the end of the workshop.
