Submission Information

We invite researchers and practitioners to submit original, unpublished research papers addressing contemporary challenges in web technologies, responsible AI, and evaluation methodologies.

Fast-track Submission (starts Jan 13, 2026)

Following the WWW 2026 main conference decision period, TIME 2026 will open a fast-track submission window starting January 13, 2026. We especially welcome high-quality papers that were not accepted to the WWW 2026 main conference (and similar venues), but are a strong fit for the workshop setting.

Our goal is to attract excellent work that benefits from a focused workshop discussion. The scope is not limited to the example topics listed in the Call for Papers—submissions aligned with the broader mission of TIME (transformative insights in multi-faceted evaluation, responsible/trustworthy AI, and web-facing evaluation challenges) are encouraged.

The fast-track uses the same OpenReview portal as regular submissions.

Author Guidelines

Formatting Requirements

Submissions must be written in English, in double-column format, and must adhere to the ACM template and format (also available in Overleaf). Word users may use the Word Interim Template.

The recommended setting for LaTeX is:

\documentclass[sigconf, review]{acmart}

Submission must be as a single PDF file. Papers may range from 4 to 8 pages in length, with authors permitted to include additional pages exclusively for references and appendices. There is no distinction between long and short papers; authors can select the length that best suits their work.

Double-Blind Review Policy

Paper submissions must conform to the double-blind review policy, meaning that authors should omit their names and affiliations from the paper. This ensures a fair and unbiased evaluation of all submissions. All papers will be peer-reviewed by experts in the field. Acceptance will be based on relevance to the workshop, scientific novelty, and technical quality.

AI-Generated Content Disclosure

As part of the submission process, please ensure that your work adheres to ethical standards regarding AI-generated content. Specifically:

  • Disclosure Required: Authors are required to disclose any use of tools such as ChatGPT or other AI-based systems in the creation of the paper. This includes usage for generating text, analysis, or other content.
  • Proper Attribution: If AI tools are used in the paper preparation, authors must ensure that proper attribution is provided and that the tool is used ethically.
  • AI as Authors: AI tools should not be listed as authors. Only human contributors should be credited as authors. Please ensure that all contributors meet the ACM Publications Policies.

Submission and Review Process

TIME 2026 will be using OpenReview to manage submissions. Submissions under review will be visible only to their assigned members of the program committee (area chairs and reviewers). The reviews and author responses will be made public.

OpenReview Profile Completion

Anyone who plans to submit a paper as an author or a co-author will need to create (or update) their OpenReview profile by the paper submission deadline. Complete OpenReview profiles are required for better assignment and conflict detection. Papers with authors who have not completed their profiles will be desk-rejected.

Exceptions and Accommodations

Deadlines and policies will be strictly enforced. There will be no exceptions or accommodations for late submissions, misconfigured author or co-author accounts on OpenReview, and/or changes to the author lists after the paper submission deadline.

Publication

Papers accepted by TIME 2026 workshop will be included in the Companion Proceedings of The Web Conference (WWW 2026), subject to meeting the camera-ready timeline. Accepted papers from the previous edition of TIME workshop were published in the Companion Proceedings of WWW 2025.
