- 22 Oct 2012: posters/demos deadline
- 30 Nov 2012: notification of acceptance
Call for Papers
The conference encourages the submission of high-quality research papers reporting original and innovative research in Information Retrieval. Submissions will be reviewed by experts on the basis of the originality of the work, the validity of the results, chosen methodology, writing quality and the overall contribution to the field of Information Retrieval. We accept not only full-papers, but also poster and demo short papers. Posters should present work in progress or leading-edge work. Demo papers should describe first-hand experiences with research prototype systems.
ECIR has traditionally had a strong student focus, and papers whose sole or main author is a postgraduate student or postdoctoral researcher are especially welcome. Papers that demonstrate a high level of research adventure or which break out of the traditional IR paradigms are also particularly welcome.
All submissions must be written in English following the LNCS author guidelines and submitted electronically through the conference submission system. Full papers must not exceed 12 pages including references and figures. Poster and Demo papers must not be longer than 4 pages. Accepted papers will have to be presented at the conference. Posters and demonstrations will be presented at a special posters and demonstrations session. All submissions will be refereed. Papers and posters will undergo double-blind peer review, so authors should take reasonable care not identify themselves in their submissions. Demo submissions are not anonymous and should preferably contain a link to an online demo.
Full papers, posters and demos submissions in PDF conforming to the LNCS style can be submitted at http://www.conftool.pro/ecir2013/
