The IEEE/ACM International Conference on Advances in Social Network Analysis and Mining (ASONAM) provides a premier interdisciplinary forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from all social networking analysis and mining related fields for presentation of original research results, as well as exchange and dissemination of innovative, practical development experiences. ASONAM 2015 seeks to address important challenging problems with a specific focus on the emerging trends and industry needs associated with social networking analysis and mining. The conference solicits experimental and theoretical findings along with their real-world applications. In addition to the technical program, the conference will feature tutorials, workshops, panels, exhibits and demos.
ASONAM 2015 welcomes proposals for short and long tutorials from active researchers and experienced tutors. Ideally, a tutorial will cover the state-of-the-art research, development and applications in a specific social network analysis and mining direction, and stimulate and facilitate future work. High preference will be given to tutorials on interdisciplinary directions, novel and emerging applications. A proposal should cover the following items.
- Title
- Abstract (up to 150 words)
- Rationale of presenting the tutorial at ASONAM 2015 (up to 250 words)
- Target audience and prerequisites (up to 100 words)
- A list of forums with their time, locations and estimate of the number of attendees if the tutorial or a similar/highly related tutorial has been presented by the same author(s) before, and highlight the similarity/difference between those and the one proposed for ASONAM 2015 (up to 150 words for each entry)
- A list of tutorials on the same/similar/highly related topics given by other people, and highlight the difference between yours and theirs (up to 150 words for each entry)
- A list of other tutorials given by the authors, please list the titles, the presenters, the forums, locations and estimate of the number of attendees only
- Authors' short bio and their expertise related to the tutorial (up to 150 words per tutor)
- An outline of the tutorial in the form of a bullet list (up to one page)
- Length of the short tutorials is 1.5-2 hours
- Length of the long tutorials is 3-4 hours
