--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The ACM Hypertext conference is a premium venue for high quality
peer-reviewed research on hypertext theory, systems and applications. It is
concerned with all aspects of modern hypertext research including social
media, semantic web, dynamic and computed hypertext and hypermedia as well
as narrative systems and applications. The ACM Hypertext 2016 conference
will focus on missing links on the WWW: how can the Hypertext paradigm and
research inspire and improve the Web? Which missing links (and linking
paradigms) can improve connections, communication and collaboration?

Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit either workshop or
tutorial proposals to be held in conjunction with Hypertext 2016. The
workshops and tutorials will provide participants with opportunities to
discuss, explore, and learn emerging areas of Hypertext and Social Media
with fellow students, researchers, and practitioners from Industry and
Academia.

The workshop/tutorial proceedings will be published in the Hypertext 2016
Extended Proceedings.

WORKSHOP PROPOSALS

The goals of the workshops are to provide a more informal setting for
exchanging opinions, to share experiences, presenting ideas, foster
research community and identify open problems and/or explore directions for
future research. As such, they also offer a good opportunity for
researchers to present their work and to obtain feedback from an interested
community in an interactive atmosphere. Proposals are especially encouraged
on emerging topics, related to the main conference tracks (i.e., missing
links on the WWW), but may also include other (novel) topics which might be
of interest for the hypertext community.

Acceptance of workshop proposals will be based on the experience and
background of the organizers in the topic, and on the relevance of the
subject matter with regard to the topics addressed in the main conference.
We welcome proposals for different types of workshops, from working groups
on a specific topic to more traditional conference-like workshops. However,
we prefer “interactive” workshops that guarantee richer active interactions
among participants and provide significant room for controversial and
stimulating discussions. Potential proposers are invited to discuss their
ideas with the workshop chair before working out a detailed proposal.

Send your workshop proposals (in PDF format) by email to the
workshop/tutorial chair, with the following information:

- Title of the workshop and suggested acronym
- Keywords (describing the main themes)
- Abstract
- Description of the workshop (topics and goals)
- Relevance of the workshop to Hypertext 2016
- Workshop organizers bios (1-2 paragraphs per organizer)
- Motivation (why the topic is of interest for the conference audience)
- Workshop and submission formats
- Length (half day or full day- in this case, motivation for the need of a
full day)
- Previous editions of the workshop series, if applicable (URLs, conference
it was co-located with, number of registrants, number of submissions,
number of accepted papers, and any other relevant information)
- Any plan for further publication (e.g., special issue in journals)
- Initial list of (potential) members of the program committee

TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

As part of the Hypertext 2016 program, in addition, we cordially invite
proposals for tutorials from active researchers and experienced tutors in
academia, industry, and government agencies. Ideally, a tutorial will cover
the state-of-the-art research and ideas, innovative developments, and novel
applications in a specific aspect of hypertext and social media, but
proposals are especially encouraged on emerging topics, related to the main
conference tracks (i.e., missing links on the WWW).

Send your tutorial proposal (in PDF format) by email to the
workshop/tutorial chair with  the following information:

- Title of the tutorial
- Keywords (describing the main themes of the tutorial)
- Abstract
- Description of the tutorial (topics and goals)
- Tutorial presenters biographies  (1-2 paragraphs per presenter)
- Length of tutorial (1.5 or 3 hours)
- Expected background and prerequisite of audience
- Relevance of the tutorial to Hypertext 2016
- A list of references/resources to be covered in the tutorial
- Previous editions of the tutorial, if presenters have given similar
tutorials elsewhere

The accepted proposal presenters should provide comprehensive tutorial
notes or slides to the tutorial audience free of charge.
