CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

https://recsys.acm.org/

The ACM Recommender Systems conference (RecSys) is the premier international 
forum for the presentation of new research results, systems and techniques in 
the broad field of recommender systems. We are pleased to invite you to 
participate in RecSys 2020, which will be held entirely online during September 
22-26, 2020.

IMPORTANT DATES

* Early-bird registration: August 21, 2020
* Main conference: September 22-24, 2020
* Tutorials & workshops: September 25-26, 2020

REGISTRATION

Registration is open at https://recsys.acm.org/recsys20/registration/. Register 
on or before August 21 to benefit from an early-bird discount!

ONLINE FORMAT

RecSys 2020 will be held entirely online. In transitioning online, our goal is 
to offer attendees an experience as close as possible to what makes RecSys 
great, while making the necessary adjustments to make it inclusive for our 
international community around the globe. In particular, the main conference 
will keep its traditional single-track structure, beginning with a keynote each 
day followed by multiple paper sessions and a poster/demo session. Longer 
breaks between sessions will allow attendees to network with other attendees 
and sponsors, engage in several virtual social activities, or simply chill out 
before the next session. Instead of choosing one particular timezone, the main 
conference will follow a timezone-agnostic, always-on schedule. In practice, 
attendees should be able to watch and interact live with all the content 
presented through September 22-24, 2020. Tutorials and workshops on September 
25-26, 2020 will offer a mix of synchronous and asynchronous activities. For 
further details, please visit: https://recsys.acm.org/recsys20/online-format/.

TECHNICAL PROGRAM

RecSys 2020 will bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and 
industry to present their latest results and identify new trends and challenges 
in providing recommendation components in a range of innovative application 
contexts. In addition to the main technical track, the RecSys 2020 program will 
feature keynote talks, tutorials covering state-of-the-art in this domain, a 
workshop program, an industrial track and a doctoral symposium.
