History The RIAO conference is a triennial conference, which addresses research topics related to the design of robust and large-scale scientific and industrial solutions to information processing. Previous RIAO editions were held at Grenoble (1985), MIT (1988), Barcelona (1991), Rockefeller University (1994), Montreal (1997), Paris (2000), and Avignon (2004), and Carnegie Mellon University (2007). Past RIAO conferences were constituted by both peer-reviewed scientific sessions and demonstrations of innovative industrial applications and advanced research prototypes.

Scope of RIAO 2010 Submissions are invited which present recent, original and unpublished research on the theme of RIAO 2010: adapting, personalizing and merging heterogeneous information.

Paper Submission

We welcome submissions from both research and industrial communities addressing the main conference theme. Submitted papers must describe an unpublished original work, emphasizing completed or advanced research, possibly with releted experiments. A parallel submission to other venues should be clearly indicated to the program committee. The submissions (which have to be blind) will be reviewed by at least three program committee members. The submissions will be evaluated on the basis of originality, relevance, technical quality, and presentation. Papers can be submitted in two categories: full papers and short papers, where full papers are appropriate for describing substantial research with related evaluations and short papers will typically describe ongoing research and preliminary results. All accepted papers in both categories will be published in the conference proceedings. At the conference, full papers will be presented as a talk and short papers will be presented as a poster. Long papers must not exceed 12 pages (5000 words), in one column format, starting with an abstract. Short papers must not exceed 6 pages (2500 words), in one column, starting with an abstract. Submissions should be in Microsoft Word format or in PDF.

The conference proceedings will be available to conference attendees, and through the CID after the conference.
