The Industrial/Government Track of the Ninth ACM
SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge
Discovery and Data Mining will highlight successful
applications of KDD technology; explore issues, methods,
and lessons learned in the development and deployment of
KDD applications; and promote the exchange of ideas
between basic and applied KDD.
KDD-2003 is expanding the scope of the Industrial Track
to include applications of KDD to government and
homeland-security problems, which have recently gained
importance. As such, the track will be called the KDD-2003
Industrial/Government Track. The goals of the
expanded track are: (1) to provide a forum for an exchange
of ideas between practitioners, researchers, companies and
government organizations; and (2) provide government
organizations with an understanding of successful KDD
applications. To achieve these goals, the
Industrial/Government Track will solicit papers from
practitioners and companies that have KDD products and
solutions relevant to government and security applications.
Abstracts and full papers must be submitted electronically at
the conference Web site (see URL above). Abstracts must be submitted
on or before February 21, 2003, at 12 noon PST (Pacific Standard Time).
An abstract may not contain more than 250 words. No paper will be
considered without having the abstract submitted on time.
Full papers must be submitted on or before February 28, 2003,
at 12 noon PST. This is a FIRM deadline. Papers must be no more than
10 pages in length, inclusive of all figures, tables, references and
appendixes. Papers should be submitted in ACM proceedings format (two
columns, 9pt font, approx. 1in margins). Templates are available at
http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html . Papers must be
submitted in PDF format. Authors are solely responsible for ensuring
that their submissions display and print properly.
Papers should describe original work that has not been
published before, is not under review elsewhere, and will
not be submitted elsewhere during KDD-2003's review
period (specialized workshops with a limited audience
excluded). Reviewers can assign research track
submissions to the industrial/government track and vice-versa,
if they feel this to be more appropriate.
The Industrial/Government Track will consist of papers in
three sub-tracks:
(1) deployed KDD application case studies;
(2) emerging applications, technology, and issues; and
(3) KDD vendor submissions.
