Hypertext 2009
The Twentieth ACM Conference on Hypertext and Hypermedia
<http://www.ht2009. org>
June 29th - July 1st, 2009, Torino, Italy
SCOPE
-----
The ACM Hypertext Conference is the main venue for high quality peer-
reviewed research on "linking." The Web, the Semantic Web, the Web
2.0, and Social Networks are all manifestations of the success of the
link. The Hypertext Conference provides the forum for all research
concerning links: their semantics, their presentation, the
applications, as well as the knowledge that can be derived from their
analysis and their effects on society.
Hypertext 2008, held in Pittsburgh, was a real success. The number of
submissions and attendees was up, a successful Student Research
Competition took place, and a rejuvenated social linking track added
new ideas and connections to the traditional core of the conference.
IMPORTANT DATES
------------ ---
* Technical tracks paper submission deadline: February 2nd, 2009
* Notification to authors: March 16th, 2009
* Camera-ready (final papers to ACM): April 6th, 2009
LOCATION AND DATES
------------ ------
Hypertext 2009 will be held from June 29th to July 1st at the Villa
Gualino Convention Center, on the hills overlooking Torino.
The capital of the Piedmont region, Torino lies at the foot of the
Alps, the majestic mountains that hosted the 2006 Winter Olympics.
First the capital of the Kingdom of Italy, then one of the European
centers of baroque, today Torino is a dynamic city known for its
industry, art and culture, sports, research and education, and cuisine.
The timing of Hypertext 2009 provides an excellent opportunity to
visit Italy in conjunction with the International Conference on User
Modeling, Adaptation, and Personalization in Trento (UMAP 2009), and
the International Workshop and Conference on Network Science in
Venice (NetSci 2009).
PROGRAM
-------
Hypertext 2009 will feature two stellar keynote speakers: Lada Adamic
(University of Michigan) is a noted scholar of social networking and
the winner of the 2008 Engelbart Award; Ricardo Baeza-Yates is Vice-
President of Yahoo! Research for Europe and Latin America, leading
the labs in Spain, Chile, and Israel.
In the conference technical program, professionals from academia,
industry, and the media will present innovative ideas and tools
exploiting the broad range of links increasingly connecting people,
information, communities, and structures. Research topics will be
organized into three tracks:
track 1. Information Structure and Presentation (Chairs: Peter
Brusilovsky and Cristina Gena)
track 2. People, Resources, and Annotations (Chairs: Andreas Hotho
and Vittorio Loreto)
track 3. Hypertext and Community (Chairs: Mark Bernstein and Antonio
Pizzo)
TRACK 1: INFORMATION STRUCTURE AND PRESENTATION
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------
Chairs:
* Peter Brusilovsky, University of Pittsburgh (USA)
* Cristina Gena, University of Torino (Italy)
The information structure and presentation track represents a
multitude of topics, which were traditionally represented at ACM
Hypertext Conferences. The track program targets formal study of
scholarly, structural, sculptural, spatial, open, dynamic and
adaptive or any other type of hypertext (or Web-based Information
System). This track also focuses on how hypertext approaches and
technologies can be applied to structure and present information in
diverse domains, and how hypertext techniques can be exploited in
classical and advanced applications. The aim of this track is to
bring researchers together to discuss models, architecture,
applications, properties, or theory in general, about hypertext and
hypermedia. Topics for consideration include:
* Hypertext models
* Spatial hypertext
* Information structuring
* Hypertext and knowledge management
* Self-organized hypertext
* Personal information organization
* Intelligent hypertext and link generation
* Navigation support
* Open hypertext
* Web and hypertext link analysis
* Dynamic and adaptive hypertext
* Hypertext and web engineering
* Interfaces and interaction with hypertexts
* Faceted browsing
* Social navigation
* Hypertexts supporting Web-based collaboration
* Hypertext and recommender systems: the role of link in
recommendations
* Hypertext applications in everyday devices (TV, mobile phone, on
board car service, etc.)
* Educational hypertext and hypermedia
* User evaluations of hypertext application
* Hypertext and cultural heritage
* E-books, kiosks, e-commerce, e-tourism
* Hypertext application in medical and health systems

TRACK 2: PEOPLE, RESOURCES, AND ANNOTATIONS
------------ --------- --------- --------- ----
Chairs:
* Andreas Hotho, University of Kassel (Germany)
* Vittorio Loreto, Sapienza University of Rome (Italy)
One of the most exciting recent developments in Web science is the
rise of social annotation, by which users can easily markup other
authors' resources via collaborative mechanisms such as tagging,
filtering, voting, editing, classification, and rating. These social
processes lead to the emergence of many types of links between texts,
users, concepts, pages, articles, media, and so on. We welcome
submissions on design, analysis, and modeling of information systems
driven by social linking. Topics of interest include but are not
limited to:
* Applications to search, retrieval, recommendation, and navigation
* Explicit vs. inferred social links (e.g. mining query logs)
* Integration of different social networks (e.g. links between
blogs and bookmarking systems)
* Socially induced measures of similarity, relatedness, or distance
* Co-evolution of social, information, and semantic networks
* Analysis of the structure and the dynamics of social information
networks
* Behavioral patterns of social linking
* Linguistic analysis of social annotation spaces
* Formal and generative models of social annotation
* Unstructured vs. structured social knowledge representations
* Implementation and scalability of social link representations
* Automatic and user-based evaluation
* Emergent semantics in social networks
* Robustness against spam and other forms of social abuse
* Design of collaborative annotation mechanisms
* Critical mass and incentives of social participation (e.g. games)
* User interfaces for collaborative annotation

TRACK 3: HYPERTEXT AND COMMUNITY
------------ --------- --------- --
Chairs:
* Mark Bernstein, Eastgate Systems, Inc. (UK)
* Antonio Pizzo, University of Torino (Italy)
The Hypertext and Community track will explore, examine, and reflect
upon social cyberculture in electronic media, ranging from literary
fiction and creative scholarship to blog and microblog networks,
social sites, games, auctions, and markets. Topics will include:
* Hypertext literature
* Theory and practice of expression in wikis, weblogs, and social
spaces
* Personal journals, weblogs, and social media
* Net art, literary hypertext, interactive fiction, and games
* Behavioral patterns of social linking

DEMOS AND INDUSTRIAL SESSION
------------ --------- -------
Technical demonstration of new tools and innovative applications of
hypertext are solicited. One-page demo descriptions, including a list
of any required supporting equipment, should be sent to by e-mail to
Giancarlo Ruffo, Demo Chair <ruffo la di.unito. it>.
CALL FOR WORKSHOPS
------------ ------
ACM Hypertext 2009 will be running at least two workshops, taking
place on the 29th of June before the start of the main conference.
The purpose of the workshops is to provide a more informal setting
where participants can exchange ideas on a focused topic and suggest
directions for future research. As such, they also offer a good
opportunity for (young) researchers to present their work and to
obtain feedback from an interested community. Acceptance of workshop
proposals will be based on the organizer's experience and background
in the topic, and on the relevance of the subject matter w.r.t. the
topics addressed in the main conference.
Details on workshop proposal submissions can be found
at http://www.ht2009. org/workshops. php
Important Workshop Dates:
* December 15th, 2008: Submission of proposals
* December 29th, 2008: Notification to proposers
* January 12th, 2009: The organizers of each workshop send out the
Call for Papers
* June 29th, 2009: Workshops day
