ACM RecSys'10: CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
======================================================================

4th ACM International Conference on Recommender Systems (RecSys'10)

September 26-30, 2010, Barcelona, Spain
http://recsys.acm.org/2010/

Submission Deadline: March 01, 2010

======================================================================
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
======================================================================

RecSys'10 is pleased to invite proposals for workshops to be held in
conjunction with the conference. The goal of the workshops is to provide
additional venues for presenting research on topics of interest and an
informal forum to discuss research questions and challenges.

We encourage proposals for a wide range of workshops, including:

* One day mini-conferences on specialized topics; such workshops may have
their own paper submission and review processes.
* Working group meetings organized around a specific problem; such workshops
may wish to ask participants to submit a short white paper or position
statement.

All workshops will be held on September 26 and September 30 at the
conference venue.  We welcome proposals for half-day and full-day workshops.

We encourage you to contact us in advance
([log in to unmask]) with workshop ideas; we will
try to work with prospective workshops, including working to connect groups
proposing similar workshop topics. We actively encourage both researchers
and industry practitioners to submit workshop proposals.
