The submission site will open on Thursday 15 February 2024.
For all accepted proposals, KR will take care of all local
arrangements.
-- Submission Requirements for Tutorial Proposals --
KR tutorials are half-day or (exceptionally) full-day events that
introduce general or special topics in KR and relevant neighboring
areas. They can be first introductions to an established area or an
emerging field, but also advanced courses on specialized methods or
new approaches. The content should be adequately established and
balanced, and not be limited to advertising an individual research
work or product. A focus on specific tools and methodologies can still
be useful to offer concrete examples and hands-on activities to
participants.
Each accepted tutorial will entitle a discount on the KR registration
fee for one tutorial presenter.
Each tutorial proposal should contain the following information:
• Title, presenters and proposed length of the tutorial (half-day is
recommended, but an argument can be made for a full-day tutorial)
• A half-page introduction to the tutorial's subject and relevance
to KR
• A half-page on the target audience, prerequisite knowledge, and
learning goals
• One page outline of the tutorial contents and intended structure
• A brief resume of each presenter including name, affiliation,
email address, and evidence of scholarship in the area, mentioning
relevant publications or professional experience.
The main duties of tutorial organizers are:
• Setup a web-page for the tutorial, which should at least include
the information from the proposal, tutorial material and related
references.
• Deliver the tutorial at KR 2024. A future call will provide
details on the presentation options.
-- Submission Requirements for Workshop Proposals --
Workshops provide a place to exchange ideas in emerging fields in KR
research and application. They can take many forms, including
mini-conferences (with peer-reviewed publications), competitions and
shared tasks, working sessions (discussions, hackathons, etc.),
line-ups of invited contributions, or a mix of these. Innovative
formats are welcome, but organizers must provide means of estimating
attendance and required length up-front (by number of submissions,
invited speakers, or early registered participants).
Workshop proposals can use up to 4 pages, which should include the
following information:
• Title, acronym of the workshop, proposed duration (half day,
one day, ...)
• Workshop description: goals, format, and expected activities
during the workshop
• Audience: target audience, research groups in the area, planned or
confirmed invited speakers, expected number of submissions and
participants
• Related events: history of the workshop (if applicable),
relationship to recent similar events
• Tentative list of PC members with their respective affiliations
• A brief resume of each organizer including name, affiliation,
contact details, and evidence of scholarship in the area,
mentioning relevant publications or professional experience.
• Appendix: tentative call for contributions
The main duties of the chair(s) of each accepted workshop are:
• Set up a webpage for the workshop
• Advertise the workshop, distribute its call for papers and call
for participation
• Coordinate the peer-reviewing of submitted contributions
• If workshop proceedings are desired, it is the duty of the
organizers to produce and distribute their workshop proceedings
• Organize a schedule for the workshop in collaboration
with the local organizers and the KR workshop co-chairs
• Coordinate and moderate the workshop participation and content
KR reserves the right to cancel a workshop if it does not have enough participants to cover its running costs.
