This workshop has been cancelled due to too little participants

Registration

Participation in this workshop is two-folded:

  1. The morning section of the workshop is open to every conference attendee interested in discussing the direction that open source recommender system software should take. An official submission is not required for those who only wish to participate in the morning section, though we would appreciate an e-mail stating the intention to join this morning section (not limited to the official submission deadline).
  2. For those who want to participate in the full day workshop and thus are interested in participating in an open source recommender system software project, we require explicit submissions consisting of:
    • Name, affiliation, contact details and preferably a photo
    • Brief description of background and experience with recommender systems
    • Description what you can contribute to an open source recommender systems software project. Contribution can be in one or more of the following categories:
      • Contribution of existing software
      • Possible commitment to participate in a project to develop open source recommender system software
      • Concrete ideas what open source recommender system software should contain

These submissions will be used to make a selection of participants in case too many people want to join the full day workshop. The accepted submissions will also be made available to every accepted participant so they can familiarize themselves with the other participants before the actual workshop. We may also invite some of the accepted participants to give a brief presentation about existing recommender system software they have been working on.

Submissions for participation in the full-day workshop and notes of interest for only the morning section can be sent to Mark.vanSetten@novay.nl

Deadline for submissions is 31 July 2009. Notification of acceptance of will be made no later than 10 August 2009.
