Call for papers: Hypertext 2010
The ACM Hypertext Conference is the main venue for high quality, peer-reviewed, double-blind research on "linking" and interconnectivity. The Web, the Semantic Web, Web 2.0 and Social
Networks all demonstrate the value of the link concept.

Technical Tracks
============
Hypertext 2010 will consist of three autonomous tracks, each with its own program committee and reviewing team.
Track 1 - Social Computing
----------------------------------------
Chair: Anabel Quan-Haase, University of Western Ontario
This track invites papers investigating social processes and practices in Hypermedia and Web 2.0 environments. These include tagging, filtering, voting, editing, trusting, and rating. These social processes result in many types of links between texts, users, concepts, pages, etc. We want to better understand the processes and practices themselves as well as the social, political, and semantic networks that result from these processes over time. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Social information diffusion
Social linking
Social and collaborative annotation
Social knowledge and information representation
Social networking technologies (e.g., Facebook, YouTube and Twitter)
Mapping and visualization of social spaces and networks
Linking virtual networks and offline networks
Time analysis of social, information, and semantic networks
Critical mass and incentives of social participation (e.g. games)
Automatic and user-based evaluation
Track 2 - Adaptive Hypermedia and Applications
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Chair: Richard Kopak, University of British Columbia
The Adaptive Hypermedia and Applications track invites papers reporting on theoretical, empirical, and methodological studies on adaptive hypermedia, including the application of adaptive hypermedia in varying domains and contexts. The scope of the Adaptive Hypermedia and Applications Track includes all forms of Web and Hypermedia system generated personalization, including user modeling, recommender systems, and e-learning. Topics may include, but are not limited to:
Adaptive presentation of hypermedia content
Adaptive navigation (link hiding, dynamic maps)
Adaptivity and the semantic Web
Algorithms and methods in explicit recommender systems
Comparison of effectiveness of implicit and explicit recommender systems
User modeling
Evaluation and usability of adaptive systems
Personalized e-learning
Personalized digital libraries
Track 3 - Hypertext in Education and Communication
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Co-Chairs: Mark Bernstein, Eastgate Systems, Inc., David Millard, University of Southampton, UK
Hypertext tools are indispensable for e-learning and m-learning, and teaching. Hypertext as a discipline in its own right -- including literary fiction, new scholarship and digital media -- plays a growing
role in education. This track targets hypertext as both a tool and a discipline, as well as focusing on the use of spatial hypertext and Web 2.0 applications such as blogs, wikis and e-portfolios. We hope to
highlight our understanding of links as a new component of writing and communication, and to increase our understanding of the ways that they are used in education, research, journalism, and literature. Topics of
interest include, but are not limited to:
Blogs and wikis in teaching and learning
Collaborative e-learning
Non-linear writing and interactive fiction
Communication theory and the web
Concept maps and knowledge structures
Digital narratives
Open educational resources
Personal learning and research tools
Hypertext literature and art e-journalism
Digital aesthetics and cyber culture
Types of Submission
===============
The Conference welcomes the following types of submissions
Papers: Papers must report new results substantiated by experimentation, simulation, analysis, or application. Authors are
invited to submit papers presenting original, not previously published works. Submission categories include:
- regular research papers (max 10 pages) discussing mature work, and
- short papers (max 5 pages) describing preliminary results of on-going work or novel thought-provoking ideas.
Posters and Demos: Technical demonstration of new tools and innovative applications of hypertext are solicited, as well as research at a preliminary stage. Submissions may include:
Posters (max 2 pages) offer researchers a unique opportunity to present late-breaking results, significant work in progress, or research that is best communicated in an interactive or graphical format. Poster submissions are welcomed in areas related to any of the three tracks. Please note, however, that posters describing work at the proposal stage will not be accepted.
Demos (max 1 page) should describe the system and include a list of any required supporting equipment. We assume that most equipment will be supplied by the demonstrator. Poster and demos presentations
further provide researchers with an opportunity to obtain direct feedback about their work from a wide audience during the poster session.
Workshops: Workshops will be held on the first day of the conference, Sunday, June 14th. Paper sessions will begin on Monday June 15. The purpose of the workshops is to provide a more informal setting for the
exchange of ideas on a focused topic and suggest directions for future research. As such, they also offer a good opportunity for 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. See the Track descriptions for ideas.
Formating and Submission
====================
All submissions should be formatted according to the official ACM SIG proceedings template and submitted via EasyChair. Accepted papers will appear in the Hypertext 2010 Conference Proceedings and will also be available through the ACM Digital Library.
