* July 7, 2009 : Exhibits and demos proposal due
* September 15, 2009 : Author notification
* October 7, 2009 : Final demo papers due
Call for Exhibits and Demos
***************************
The ICDM 2009 Exhibit and Demo section will consist of an Exhibit Session
and a Demo Session. The Exhibit Session will offer opportunities to
distribute product, service, and company literature, give demonstrations and
carry out recruitment activities. The Demo Session will provide data mining
researchers and practitioners an exciting and highly interactive way to
explore new ideas and results.
Call for Exhibits
*****************
1. General Exhibitors will attend a bidding of three levels of limited
number of booths: one Gold Booth (US $6000), two Silver Booths (US $4000),
and three Bronze Booths (US$ 3000, tabletop only). A standard booth space
will be 8' x 10' with a table (6' x 30") and two chairs.
2. The final winners’ selection will be based on the relationship between
the distributed goods and ICDM2009, the benefit to ICDM 2009 audiences, and
the order of paying fees.
3. Non-profit research organizations and publishers (evidence is required to
show the non-profit nature) will get a special rate (US $1500) for a
tabletop but with lowest priority for booth allocation.
4. All fees above are valid only if payment is received by 15 Sept 2009.
After 15 Sept 2009 the fee will increase by 20%.
5. Exhibitors will be responsible for any other equipment including all
hardware and software required for their exhibits.
6. Benefits for an Exhibitor
- One company logo on the conference web-site (in the exhibit & demo
section)
- Ability to include flyers or CD in conference bag for an additional fee of
$200 per item
- The corresponding booth or a tabletop based on the level above
- One complimentary registration
- Discounted registration fee for all team members manning the exhibit

Call for Demos
**************
1. A demo is for (1) demonstrating data mining software systems and
libraries closely related to the area of data mining and knowledge
discovery, (2) showing new technological advances in applying data mining
techniques.
2. The demo proposal needs to describe i) motivation for the demonstrated
concepts, ii) the design, development and functionality of their work in an
interactive setting, and ii) the significance of the contribution.
3. Regular student demo proposals: if a project will be undertaken by
regular students only, a one page statement is needed in which the students
clearly describe the student teams and confirmation by the students'
supervisor.
4. Preparing your demo proposal: All demonstration submissions must be
within four pages in IEEE proceedings style (double-column pages) and should
include:
- Demonstration title
- Authors (name, affiliation, email, address, phone and fax)
- The corresponding author with her/his email address
- Abstract (max. 150 words)
- Keywords
- The category of the submission
- URL for the demo software (if available)
- Paper ID if the demo is related to a paper at the main conference
- Equipment you will bring (e.g., laptop, robot)
- Equipment you will need (e.g., table, poster board, power sockets)
- Special requirements (e.g., space for robot and if so how much, video
projector)
- A discussion of the present state of your demo (e.g., ready to demonstrate
now, but if not, include a realistic estimate for conclusion and what
remains to be done before you have a demonstrable software/robotic system)
- A video presentation of your demo, in which you can showcase and explain
its features, and the URL link where one can download the video of your demo
5. The selection criteria for the demonstration proposals evaluation
include:
- Relevance to ICDM
- Novelty of the application domain
- The technical advances and challenges
- Quality and soundness of the underlying technology
- Maturity of the (deployed) system
- Potential for public interaction
- The overall practical attractiveness of the demonstrated system
6. Proposal submission: Submit your demo proposal as a paper at ICDM2009
paper submission site. Mark it as a submission to the
Demonstrations Program in the form. (Note: Demo submissions to the
Demonstrations Program are not blind)
7. Each accepted proposal will be provided a standard tabletop space will be
8' x 10' with a table (6' x 30") and two chairs.

Bhaduri ([log in to unmask])).
