First ACM International Conference on
Web Search and Data Mining
WSDM 2008
WSDM (pronounced "wisdom") is a brand new ACM conference intended to be complementary to the World Wide Web Conference tracks in search and data mining. The pace of innovation in these areas has reached a level that requires more than one premier annual venue. WSDM invites original, high quality submissions related to search and data mining on the Web, with an emphasis on practical but principled novel models, algorithm design and analysis, economics implications, and in-depth experimental analysis of accuracy and performance. The goal is to make WSDM a focused meeting with a single research paper session through 2-3 days. WSDM will also invite keynote talks from some of the best minds from industrial and academic research.
WSDM is being co-sponsored by ACM SIGIR, SIGKDD, SIGMOD, and SIGWEB. We thank our industrial sponsors, Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo!, for their generous financial contributions. Any other parties interested in helping us, please read the
