Call for papers
1st International Temporal Web Analytics Workshop (TWAW)
March 28 (tentative), 2011, Hyderabad, India
http://www.temporalweb.net/

Objectives:
The objective of this workshop is to provide a venue for researchers of all domains (IE/IR, Web mining etc.) where the temporal dimension opens up an entirely new range of challenges and possibilities. The workshop’s ambition is to help shaping a community of interest on the research challenges and possibilities resulting from the introduction of the time dimension in Web analysis.

TWAW focuses on temporal data analysis along the time dimension for Web data that has been collected over extended time periods. A major challenge in this regard is the sheer size of the data it exposes and the ability to make sense of it in a useful and meaningful manner for its users. Web scale data analytics therefore needs to develop infrastructures and extended analytical tools to make sense of these. TWAW will take place March 28 (tentative) 2011 in conjunction with International World Wide Web Conference in Hyderabad, India.

Workshop topics of TWAW therefore include, but are not limited to following:
• Web scale data analytics
• Temporal Web analytics
• Distributed data analytics
• Web science
• Web dynamics
• Data quality metrics
• Web spam
• Knowledge evolution on the Web
• Systematic exploitation of Web archives
• Large scale data storage
• Large scale data processing
• Data aggregation
• Web trends
• Topic mining
• Terminology evolution
• Community detection and evolution

Important Dates:
• Paper submission deadline: January 31, 2011
• Notification of acceptance: February 14, 2011
• Camera ready copy deadline: February 25, 2011
• Workshop: March 28 (tentative), 2011
