The 27th ACM International Conference on Information and
Knowledge Management (CIKM) takes place on October 22-26, 2018 at
Lingotto, Turin, Italy. Our theme for 2018
is "From Big Data and Big Information to Big Knowledge".
Strategically positioned at the intersection of research on the
management of knowledge, information, and data, CIKM is uniquely
situated to highlight technologies and insights that materialize
the Big Data, Big Information and Big Knowledge vision of the
future.
Since 1992, CIKM has successfully brought together leading
researchers and developers from the knowledge management,
information retrieval, and database communities. Through the
publication, presentation, and discussion of high-quality applied
and theoretical research findings, CIKM attendees shape the future
by identifying challenging problems facing the creation of
advanced knowledge and information systems, and by providing
insightful solution approaches for those problems. With CIKM 2018,
we will continue the tradition of promoting collaboration among
multiple areas through broad and interdisciplinary programs for
the conference, including workshops, tutorials, industry speakers,
keynote speakers, research papers and posters, demonstrations,
competitions, and other special events.
