WORKSHOP FOCUS
****************
HILDA is a workshop that will allow researchers and practitioners to exchange 
ideas and results relating to how data management can be done with awareness of the 
people who form part of the analytics process, and bridge the gap between traditional 
data management and human-computer-interaction. Thus, the key focus of HILDA is to evaluate, 
understand, and formally reason about the participation of humans in data management, with 
the eventual goal towards building data management systems and techniques that 
humans as a first-class citizen, alongside data.
We welcome work that proposes innovations in design to improve the way people can work 
with data management systems, just as work that studies empirically how humans work with 
existing systems. We welcome research from a variety of perspectives: database systems, 
data mining and machine learning,human-centric computing, interfaces, and visualization, 
as well as industrial best practices and experience. A sample of topics that are in the 
spirit of this workshop include, but are not limited to: 
user-facing query interfaces, visual/user-centric approaches to data management problems, 
interactive query refinement, data exploration and analysis, 
data visualization, human-assisted data integration and cleaning, perception-aware data 
processing, database systems designed for highly interactive use cases, empirical studies 
of database use, and crowd-powered data infrastructure. 
HILDA intends to be a forum where people across the database, HCI, 
visualization, and machine learning communities engage with one another's
ideas. We welcome submissions that present initial ideas and visions, just as 
much as reports on early results, or reflections on completed projects. The workshop
 will focus on discussion and interaction, rather than static presentations of what is 
in the paper. Please see http://hilda.io/ for links to the program from previous years.

****************
SUBMISSION 
****************
Authors are invited to submit either of the following: (1) original, unpublished 
research papers that are not being considered for publication in any other forum.  
These will be published in the HILDA proceedings, or (2) abstracts of previous work 
presented in other venues ideally outside the database community. 

Abstracts will be considered for discussion at the workshop only and not be included in the HILDA 
proceedings.  Submissions of abstracts must be marked in the title as (Abstract).
Research papers must follow the latest ACM Proceedings format (2017). Research papers submitted 
can be between four and six pages in length, excluding references. 
Abstracts should be maximally one page long. 

All submissions will be handled through 
EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hilda2018
