Web practices of individuals, collectives, institutions, and platforms:

  • The architecture and philosophy of the Web
  • Social machines, crowd computing, collective intelligence, and collaborative production
  • Health and well-being online
  • Humanities, arts, and culture on the Web

Submissions

WebSci18 is a selective conference with a rigorous review process. Reviewing will be single-blind (authors are identified on submissions; reviewers are anonymized). To accommodate the distinct traditions of Web Science’s many disciplines, we allow for two different paper submission formats: full papers and short papers.

Full papers are up to 8-10 pages long, ACM double column. Full papers should present new and substantial theoretical, empirical, methodological, or policy-oriented contributions to research and/or practice. Full papers include an abstract, an introduction, sections and especially significant conclusions and should be well on top of the current literature in the field as evidenced by appropriate referencing. Full papers should be original work that has not been previously published. Full papers are presented through regular talks. The program committee may decide to recommend full papers that were rejected as such to be accepted as short papers, if the authors agree.

Short papers are 3-5 pages long, ACM double column. Short papers should present new ideas and/or work in progress that may have significant impact to or implications for the progress of the Web and Web Science. Short papers should include an abstract, an introductory paragraph and appropriate references. Short papers should be original work that has not been previously published. Short papers are assigned short talks.

Both types of accepted submissions will be included in the proceedings, which will be archived by the ACM Digital Library. However, in order to accommodate the publication priorities of different scientific communities, we allow authors to opt out of having their contribution appear in the published proceedings (thus allowing the authors to retain the right to publish later in academic journals).

Furthermore, the WebSci18 Scientific Program Chairs intend to organize a special issue of The Journal of Web Science. Authors of selected full and short papers and extended abstracts will be contacted and invited to submit a full-length journal paper for the special issue. All papers invited to this submission will go through a peer-review process before receiving final approval.

Submission Instructions Full and short paper submissions should be formatted according to the official ACM SIG Conference Proceedings.

See http://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template (From the zip files provided, please select the SIGCONF version.)
