2011 - VII Workshop on Ongoing Thesis and Dissertations

VII Workshop on Ongoing Thesis and Dissertations
The VII Workshop on Ongoing Thesis and Dissertations of WebMedia (WTD 2011) is a forum dedicated to the presentation and discussion of ongoing MsC and PhD work in the areas of Multimedia, Hypermedia and Web. The main goal of this track is to stimulate discussion and to provide students with feedback on their current work. In addition, the community will have an overview of the national research status in the area. The track also aims at stimulating integration and cooperation of researchers giving a wider visibility of the current research for the academic and industrial community.

All papers submitted to the WTD-WebMedia will be peer-reviewed by members of an Evaluation Committee. The selected papers will be presented during the Workshop and will receive feedback from experienced researchers. We expect to favor, at the end of the event, the integration amongst Universities, students and professors.

Authors are invited to submit original work, containing the proposals and partial results of their scientific or technological research activities. The topics are the same as in the main conference, which can be found above.

Authors must use the EasyChair system (Submission page: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=webmed...) to electronically submit their MsC/PhD work overview. Paper can be written in English or in Portuguese, but only the PDF format is accepted. Papers must follow the style guidelines from ACM (see http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html) and should contain up to 5 pages. The accepted papers will be published by the ACM(1).

The first page should contain the follow information: Title, Student name, Advisor name, Program (MsC or PhD), University / Graduation Program, Starting date, Expected date for conclusion, and Abstract.

Paper acceptance requires that the student registers for the conference in order to present the work, since the workshop aims at promoting the discussion about the ongoing work.
