先ほど、dbjapan メーリングリストに何通か、スパムが配信されました。 dbjapan メーリングリストには日々、かなりの数のスパム投稿があるため、会員以外のメールアドレスからの投稿は全て人手で審査を行い、審査に通ったメールだけ会員の皆さんに配信する仕組みになっています。今回のスパムは、人手での審査の際のオペレーションミスが原因で配信されてしまいました。具体的にはWebシステム上で「拒否」を選択するところを誤って「受理」を選択してオペレーションを実行してしまったものです。会員の皆様には、当該スパムメールは捨てていただくようお願いします。申し訳ございません。なお、以前より dbjapan メーリングリストからの脱会を申し込まれる方がいらっしゃいますが、dbjapanは DBSJ 会員全員に配信されるメーリングリストとなっており、 DBSJ 会員のまま dbjapan メーリングリストの配信を停止することはできません。國島丈生 t.kunishi(a)gmail.com

by Akira Maeda 17 Apr '23

17 Apr '23

日本データベース学会の皆様，立命館大学の前田と申します． 12月4日〜7日に台湾・台北（オンライン発表も可能）で開催されるICADL 2023 （The 25th International Conference on Asia-Pacific Digital Libraries）の論文募集のご案内をさせていただきます．論文投稿の締切は，フル／ショート／プラクティスペーパーが7月6日（木），デモ／ポスターペーパーが7月20日（木）となっております．ぜひ投稿をご検討いただければ幸いです．よろしくお願い致します． ----------------------------------------- The 25th International Conference on Asia-Pacific Digital Libraries (ICADL 2023) December 4 - December 7, 2023 Taipei, Taiwan (Onsite face-to-face conference, allowing those who cannot attend to present their papers online) Hosted by National Taiwan Normal University and National Central Library In collaboration with Asia-Pacific Chapter of iSchools (AP-iSchools) In collaboration with Asia-Pacific Library and Information Education and Practice (A-LIEP) URL: https://icadl.net/icadl2023 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The International Conference on Asia-Pacific Digital Libraries (ICADL), which started in Hong Kong in 1998 and over the years traveled many countries in the Asia-Pacific region, is a major digital library conference. Along with JCDL and TPDL, ICADL is held annually as one of the three top venues for connecting digital library, computer science, and library and information science communities. This year, ICADL 2023 will be held from December 4th to 7th, 2023 at the National Central Library in Taipei, Taiwan as an onsite face-to-face conference; however, for those who cannot attend, ICADL 2023 will allow them to present their papers online and join sessions. ICADL 2023 will be co-located with the 11th Asia-Pacific Conference on Library Information Education and Practice (A-LIEP 2023; https://a-liep.org) and the annual meeting of Asia-Pacific chapter of iSchools (AP-iSchools; https://ischools.org/) under a collective title “2023 International Forum on Data, Information, and Knowledge for Resilient and Trustworthy Digital Societies” (the International Forum hereafter). Thus, ICADL 2023 will provide an excellent international forum for researchers from not only Asia-Pacific regions but also all over the world to meet people with different backgrounds but common research interests to exchange their cutting-edge knowledge, experience and practices in various relevant issues in digital libraries, Library and Information Science (LIS), and other related fields. The theme for ICADL 2023 is "Leveraging Generative Intelligence in Digital Libraries: Towards Human-Machine Collaboration". As generative artificial intelligence (AI) is gaining widespread use, it has the potential to positively and negatively impact digital libraries and their stakeholders. This conference welcomes papers that explores the role of generative AI in digital libraries and other information intensive environments. Proceedings of ICADL 2023 are going to be published by Springer as an LNCS volume, which is indexed by Scopus. This year, we have the following four submission categories: full papers, short papers, practice papers, and demo/poster papers. The Best Paper and the Best Student Paper will be awarded by the Program Committee and selected among the accepted full papers. Candidates for the Best Student Paper award should have students as first authors. Selected papers will be invited for a special issue to be published with the International Journal on Digital Libraries (IJDL), published by Springer. In order to provide young scholars with guidance from mentors and establish networking opportunities among them, a doctoral colloquium will be held in the International Forum. In addition, if there is any interest in organizing workshops, tutorials, and panel sessions in the International Forum, we will consider them on request. Please contact the conference organizers (To: Prof. Hao-Ren Ke (clavenke(a)ntnu.edu.tw)) with your proposal (including title, background and purposes, topics, workshop/tutorial/panel structure, organizers). Information about accepted events will be put on the website of the International Forum.

日本データベース学会の皆さま　早稲田大学の酒井と申します。情報検索国際会議のトップカンファレンスSIGIRの Asia-Pacific版、SIGIR-AP (Asia-Pacific) が立ち上がります。記念すべき第一回は今年11月に北京でハイブリッド開催されます。 SIGIRで不採録となった論文も復活できるチャンスがあります。詳しくは下記CFPとホームページをご覧ください。ご投稿をお待ちしております。 SIGIR-AP 2023 Second Call For Papers April 2023 SIGIR-AP 2023 Second Call For Papers http://www.sigir-ap.org/sigir-ap-2023/call-for-papers/ SIGIR-AP (Asia/Pacific) http://www.sigir-ap.org/ is a new regional IR conference whose scope is fundamentally the same as SIGIR. Authors of accepted papers can either present their work in-person or remotely. The conference adopts double-blind, single-track reviewing, and allows submissions of papers that are commensurate with contribution size. There are two types of SIGIR-AP submissions: Regular submissions and SIGIR-Revise-and-Resubmit submissions. Regular submissions: These are new, original contributions that have not been submitted elsewhere before. We also welcome Resource papers and Reproducibility papers. Resources papers consider test collections and labelled datasets, designs and protocols of evaluation tasks, and software tools and services for information access. Reproducibility papers repeat, reproduce, generalize, and reexamine prior work, for example analysing to what extent assumptions of the original work are valid, or identify error modes and unexpected conclusions; typically these papers involve a new team and a new experimental setup, that is, they go beyond replication. Page length: (A) Paper body + (B) references. (A) Paper body length should be 2-9 pages, and be commensurate with contribution size. (B) No page limit for the references section. SIGIR-Revise-and-Resubmit (SIGIR-RR) submissions: These are revised versions of either full or short papers that were not accepted at the immediately preceding SIGIR conference. (No other SIGIR paper tracks, e.g., perspectives, resource, reproducibility etc. are accommodated similarly this year.) In addition to the revised paper, the authors must include in the submission file a text explaining the revision based on the SIGIR reviews, as well as the original SIGIR submission. Page length: (A) Paper body + (B) references + (C) explanation (with SIGIR paper ID) + (D) SIGIR submission (A) Paper body length should be 2-9 pages, and be commensurate with contribution size. (B) No page limit for the references section. (C) Explanation (1-3 pages, no style requirements): a SIGIR paper ID, plus a text that explain how the authors addressed the points raised by the SIGIR reviewers after the SIGIR rejection. (D) SIGIR submission: please include the original anonymised SIGIR submission as is in the SIGIR-AP submission. IMPORTANT DATES (Timezone: Anywhere on Earth) June 26, 2023 Abstract submissions due July 3, 2023 Paper submissions due September 10, 2023 Paper decision notifications September 26, 2023 Camera ready papers due November 26-29, 2023 SIGIR-AP conference (tutorial2 + 2-day conference + workshops) PROGRAM CHAIRS Xuanjing Huang, Fudan University, P.
