XVI Workshop on Ongoing Thesis and Dissertations (WTD)

The XVI Workshop on Ongoing Thesis and Dissertations of WebMedia (WTD) is a forum dedicated to the presentation and discussion of ongoing MsC and PhD work in the areas of Multimedia, Hypermedia and Web. The main goal of WTD-WebMedia is to stimulate discussion and to provide students with feedback on their current work. In addition, the community will have an overview of the national research status in the area. The Workshop also aims at stimulating integration and cooperation of researchers giving a wider visibility of the current research for the academic and industrial community.

All papers submitted to the WTD-WebMedia will be peer-reviewed by members of an Evaluation Committee. The selected papers will be presented during the Workshop and will receive feedback from experienced researchers. We expect to favor, at the end of the event, the integration amongst Universities, students and professors.

Authors are invited to submit original work, containing the proposals and partial results of their scientific or technological research activities. The topics are the same as in the main conference, which can be found in the call for papers. All papers must be submitted electronically by the JEMS system. The paper can be written in English or in Portuguese and should contain up to 6 pages.

Submissions must be in PDF, complying with the ACM format. The first page should contain the follow information: Title, Student name, Advisor name, Program (MsC or PhD), University / Graduation Program, Starting date, Expected date for conclusion, keywords and Abstract. The remaining pages should contain the following sections: theoretical background, problem identification, goals, expected contributions, methodology, contributions; current status of the work, and related work. Paper acceptance requires that the student registers for the conference in order to present the work, since the workshop aims at promoting the discussion about the ongoing work.
