[AISWorld] Call for Participation: TempWeb 2017, April 3, Perth, Australia

                   CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

***************************************************************

7th Temporal Web Analytics Workshop (TempWeb 2017)
in conjunction with WWW 2017
April 3, Perth, Australia
http://www.temporalweb.net/

As in previous years, TempWeb is focused on the temporal dimension and 
the challenge to leverage time signals and expressions in order to 
capture dynamics, trends and understand time contextualization. With the 
maturity of the Web and the emergence of large scale repositories of Web 
contents, there has been a rapidly growing set of research activities 
and services that have this focus in common. Having a dedicated workshop 
has proven relevant and fruitful to take a rich and cross-domain 
approach to this new research challenge with a strong focus on the 
temporal dimension. TempWeb will take place on April 3, 2017 in 
conjunction with the International World Wide Web Conference in Perth, 
Australia.
