AIM OF THE SYMPOSIUM

ADCS 2015 is an opportunity for researchers and practitioners in document management and information retrieval to meet and present their work. The symposium aims to cover all aspects of Document Computing – issues ranging from the fundamentals of document architectures and standards for markup, through storage, management, retrieval, authentication and workflow, to active and virtual documents. The symposium emphasises both commercial and academic issues by encouraging a variety of submissions.

- Cognitive Aspects of Documents
- Digital Libraries
- Document Databases
- Document Standards (XML, SGML, etc.)
- Document Summarisation
- Enterprise Search
- Evaluation
- Information Retrieval
- Multimedia Document Management
- Multimedia Resource Discovery
- Natural Language Techniques and Documents

- Search Engine Architectures and Scalability
- User Studies Involving Documents
- Web Documents

SUBMISSIONS
———–
All submissions must be original work, not previously published elsewhere, and not currently submitted to any other conference or journal. Electronic copies of accepted papers will be made available through the ACM Digital Library as part of the ICPS collection. Manuscripts should be submitted electronically, in PDF format and formatted using the ACM camera-ready templates available at: http://www.acm.org/sigs/
Full papers have a maximum of length of 8 pages including all references, and short papers have a maximum length of 4 pages including references. All submissions will be fully refereed using a double blind refereeing process, at their full published length, and will comply with DEST criteria for fully-refereed conference papers (category E1). Papers will be submitted using Easy Chair — https://easychair.org/
Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will attend the symposium to present the work. Note also that it is insufficient for an author to register and pay for the symposium to be regarded as fulfilling this obligation. Authors of accepted papers will have to sign the ACM rights management form to comply with publication in the ACM digital library. For more information see the ACM authors page.
FULL PAPERS
———–
Full papers should describe new contributions or analyse research issues. Submissions should be at most eight pages long (around 4000 words); over-length submissions risk immediate rejection. Refer to the guidelines for papers for details of the required format.
POSTERS, SHORT PAPERS AND INDUSTRY STATUS REPORTS
——————————
To encourage participation by industry and to provide a place for work of a more speculative nature, ADCS invites submissions for short papers, up to a maximum of four pages (around 2000 words). A typical proposal might describe a leading-edge solution to a practical problem in document management. Short papers follow the same format as for full papers.
STUDENT TRAVEL GRANTS
———————
Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, students will be able to receive travel support to attend and present at ADCS 2015.
