SIGIR 2012 Workshop on Time-Aware Information Access
May 19, 2012 13:55
Web
content increasingly reflects the current state of
the physical and social world, manifested both in
traditional news media sources along with
user-generated publishing sites such as Twitter,
Foursquare, and Facebook. At the same time, web
searching increasingly reflects problems grounded in
the real world.
As a result of this blending of the web with the real world, we observe that the web, both in its composition and use, has incorporated many of the dynamics of the real world. Many of the problems associated with searching dynamic collections are not well understood, such as defining time-sensitive relevance, understanding user query behavior over time and understanding why certain web content changes.
TAIA2012 aims to bring together practitioners and researchers to discuss their recent breakthroughs and the challenges with addressing time-aware search, both from the algorithmic and the architectural perspectives.
Deadline for submissions: June 4, 2012.
