CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
The purpose of this SIGIR workshop is to raise issues and promote
discussion on the methodology of XML retrieval (XML-IR).  Conducting
the workshop at SIGIR provides an opportunity for IR researchers,
who may not be aware of work and progress in the area of XML-IR,
to participate. It will also allow researchers who have
researched the area of XML-IR to participate and
exchange ideas and experience with the other members of the community.

Opinion papers discussing XML element retrieval, and related issues, are
sought (closing date for submissions: 23 June 2006). Topics include but
are not limited to Theory, Application, Interaction, Measurement,
Judgment, and Experience. Note that relevance ranking algorithms are
excluded (they are the focus of the annual INEX workshop).

This workshop is open to all interested parties. Submission of an
opinion paper is not required (but is encouraged). Places are limited
and preference will be given to authors of accepted papers.
