CALL FOR PAPERS - WikiSym 2011 - 7th International Symposium on
Wikis and Open Collaboration
October 3-5, 2011 | Mountain View, California
The International Symposium on Wikis and Open Collaboration (WikiSym)
is the premier conference on open collaboration and related
technologies. In 2011, WikiSym celebrates its 7th year of scholarly,
technical and community innovation in Mountain View, California at the
Microsoft Research Campus in Silicon Valley.
Submissions are invited for the following categories, further details
are available on the conference website:
http://www.wikisym.org/ws2011/submitting:start
* Research Papers, Panels, Workshop: April 1
* Posters, Demos: May 13
* Notification of Acceptance: June 17
The conference program will include a peer-reviewed research track, as
well as workshops, a doctoral consortium, invited keynotes and panel
speakers. Evening social events will follow, because wiki folks know
the value of a good party for sparking conversation and collaboration.
As always, Open Space, a participant-organized track will also run
throughout the conference. Many of the most innovative technology
companies in the world have a presence in Mountain View, which makes
it an ideal venue for hatching new ideas and thoughtful debate about
collaborative computing among technologists, researchers, educators,
and activists.
Topics appropriate for research submissions include all aspects of the
people, tools, contexts, and content that comprise open collaboration
systems. For example:
* Collaboration tools and processes
* Social and cultural aspects of collaboration
* Collaboration beyond text: images, video, sound, etc.
* Communities and workgroups
* Knowledge and information production
* New media literacies
* Uses and impact of wikis and open resources in specific fields, such
as
- Education/Open Educational Resources
- Law/Intellectual Property
- Journalism
- Art
- Science
- Publishing
- Business
- Entertainment
In addition to research and development topics, WikiSym also invites
innovative proposals for wiki-style art and performance.

should we consider submitting a proposal for a workshop on biowikis?
Workshops
Workshops provide an opportunity for researchers
and practitioners to discuss and learn about
topics that require in-depth, extended engagement
such as new systems, research methods, standards and formats.
A workshop proposal should consist of
approximately two pages describing what you
intend to do and how your session will meet the
criteria described above. It should include a
concise abstract, proposed time frame (half-day,
full-day), what you plan to do during the
workshop, and one-paragraph biographies of all
organizers. Workshop proposals will be reviewed
and selected for their interest to the community.
Each accepted workshop will be provided with a
meeting room for either a half or full day.
Organizers may also request technology and
materials (projector, flip pads, etc).
Deadline: April 1st, 2011

I certainly think it would be worth while submitting a half day
workshop proposal on new research methods using biological wikis
and/or the use of Semantic MediaWiki as a new database system.
