                    Call for Papers
              Workshop on New Paradigms in
       Information Visualization and Manipulation


        December 2, 1995--- Baltimore, Maryland

       In Conjunction with the ACM Conference on

     Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM'95)
             November 28--December 2, 1995

  The CIKM '95 Workshop on New Paradigms in Informa- tion Visualization
and Manipulation will be a forum for presentation and discussion of new
ideas and techniques for accessing, visualizing and manipulating
information.  Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to: 
applications of virtual reality, including VRML; shared virtual
environments and simu- lations; dynamic data visualization;  visualization
of multidimensional information spaces;  visualization of large, dynamic
information collections; applications of Internet tools such as MUDs,
MOOs, and IRCs; document and corpus metrics; multi-modal information
displays; software and hardware architectures to support in- formation
visualization;  and social interaction in multi-user information
visualization systems.  We are particularly interested in reports of work
in progress, implementation techniques, and practical experience with
visualization of information collections of all sizes.  A significant
portion of the workshop agenda will be devoted to discussion of pending
research questions, and directions for future work in this area. 

  Prospective participants are invited (but not required) to submit
position papers.  The suggested maximum length is four pages.  The
position papers will be reviewed by the organizing committee, and accepted
papers will appear in the workshop proceedings.  Some of the accepted
papers will be selected for informal presentation at the workshop. 
Accepted papers that were submitted electronically will be available via
WWW by early November.  Authors of those position papers found to be
especially interesting or important may be invited to prepare expanded
versions of those papers, which will then be submitted for publication in
a book or an appropriate journal. 

  Mail papers in either Postscript, ASCII or HTML to turner@cs.umbc.edu by
October 15, 1995.  We prefer e-mail submissions, but authors who lack
e-mail access may send papers to Dr.  Russell Turner, Department of
Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, University of Maryland
Baltimore County, Baltimore, MD 21228-5398 USA. Submissions should include
the title, author(s), author's affiliation, e-mail address, fax number and
postal address.  In case of multiple authors, please indicate which author
is responsible for correspondence.
