Submission Guidelines

We solicit two categories of papers: regular workshop papers and extended abstracts. Only regular workshop papers will be included in the proceedings as archival publications. By default, regular workshop papers will be included in a CIKM companion volume published by http://ceur-ws.org/. Extended abstracts will be presented as oral or poster presentations in the workshop without archival. Preliminary but interesting ideas or results that have not been published before may be submitted as extended abstracts. Accepted extended abstracts will be presented as posters/oral presentations, but will not be included in the workshop proceedings (non-archival).

Extended abstract submissions are therefore ideal for preliminary work which would benefit from exposure but is not ready for publication.

All two categories of papers may be long (maximum 8 pages plus references) or short (maximum 4 pages plus references). All submissions should be in PDF format and made through the Easychair submission portalwebsite set up for this workshop.

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished full-length research papers that are not previously published, accepted to be published, or being considered for publication in any other forum. All papers should satisfy the standard requirements of top-tier international research conferences.

Manuscripts should be submitted to KINN-21’s Easychair site in PDF format, using the ACM sigconf template, see https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. The pPaper review process will be double-blind, and submissions not properly anonymized will be desk-rejected without review. At least one author of each accepted paper must register to present the work as scheduled in the workshop program.
