The CIKM 2000 Workshop on New Paradigms in Information 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:

• Visualization of multidimensional information spaces;
• Visualization of large, dynamic information collections;
• Shared virtual environments and simulations;
• Dynamic data visualization;
• Applications of virtual reality to visualization problems, including VRML;
• Multi-modal information displays;
• Document and corpus metrics;
• Visual data mining and knowledge discovery;
• Web or network-based visualization;
• Applications in document analysis;
• Software and hardware architectures to support information visualization;
• Computer Supported Cooperative Work 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.

The suggested maximum length of extended abstract is four pages. The extended abstracts will be reviewed by the organizing committee, and accepted extended abstracts will appear in the workshop proceedings, and will be presented by the authors at the workshop. Accepted extended abstracts that were submitted electronically will be available via WWW by early November.

Final Proceedings containing full papers will be published by ACM Press after the workshop. Watch this space for further information about preparation of camera-ready copy for accepted extended abstracts.

Submission of Extended Abstract

Email extended abstracts in any of ASCII, HTML, PostScript of PDF to ebert@cs.umbc.edu by September 13, 2000. Papers must be in a form that can be printed anywhere, so special fonts should be avoided.

We prefer e-mail submissions, but authors who lack e-mail access may send papers to Dr. David Ebert, Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, University of Maryland Baltimore County, Baltimore, MD 21250 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.

Notification to Authors

The contact author will be notified of the reviewing results by October 13, 2000 by email, using the contact information provided by the authors. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for NPIVM. Otherwise, the paper will not be included in the final proceedings.
