CIKM Tickets Details
Conference on Information and Knowledge Management
(CIKM) is a top-ranked ACM conference in the areas of information
retrieval, knowledge management and databases. Since its inception in
1992, CIKM is providing a platform to researchers and developers from
all around the globe to get together at one place, discuss their ideas
and propose a solution to the existing problems.
Objectives of CIKM:
The conference, being held every year, identifies challenging
problems in the areas of knowledge and information systems and brings
out a feasible solution. It helps in directing research towards
solution that benefit people. Through high quality publications and
theoretical and practical findings, CIKM is determined to attain its
goal. CIKM promotes collaboration among multiple areas and focuses on
interdisciplinary research as well. High quality papers on almost all
topics in the general areas of database, information retrieval and
knowledge management are accepted and appreciated. The sole purpose of
the conference is to combine great minds of science and let others know
of the ongoing latest research. This effort in turn results in more
research and attracts capable and talented people from all around.
Workshops:
CIKM provides an international forum to people from all the
countries and give them a chance to interact and discuss their
scientific ideas. The most important part of the Conference is the
Workshops program that highlights current research challenges and
initiatives taken by people in different parts of the world aiming to
solve some problem and answer some questions. The workshops equipped
with recent knowledge and information regarding emerging areas of
database management, International Relations and other relevant areas
are very useful for the attendants as well as the presenters. The
informational content is enormous and knowledge is up-to-date. The
schedule for the workshop and the content varies every year but focus
remains the same which is to equip everyone with the ongoing research
and challenges faced in the related areas and appreciate the youth to
come forward, present their ideas and discuss about their impacts and
implications.
Travel Grants:
ACM CIKM also provides a limited number of funds to help people
financially in the form of travel grants. These funds, subsidizing
housing and living expenses, are specified for the people who are
presenting the papers. Preferences are given to the principal authors
of the papers. The attendees are not eligible for these grants.
Students receiving these grants are needed to assist with checking in
attendees, registration process and conference sessions. This social
and community service enables them to interact with people, broaden
their vision and develop sense of responsibility. It’s always fun to be
a part of team helping the organizers with full enthusiasm and high
spirits.
Previous CIKM conferences have been famous and very successful in
their goals. With many previous conferences in past held in Washington DC, the organizers try to hit a different city every time now.

The 2011’s edition of CIKM took place in Glasgow,
the culturally rich, vibrant city with a long history at the forefront
of socio-economic and political change. The panelists for the
conference included Dr. Ed Chi, a research scientist at Google, Dr.
