Conference

The CLEF 2011 conference is the continuation of the popular CLEF campaigns and workshops that ran from 2000 through 2009 (see http://www.clef-campaign.org/).


In 2010, CLEF was organized in a different way: the CLEF 2010 Conference presented related research papers followed by a series of "labs" covering a broad range of issues from fields of multilingual and multimodal information access evaluation.


CLEF 2011 will be organized in a similar way as 2010. Researchers and practitioners from all segments of the information access and related communities are invited to participate.


Conference proceedings are now published in Springer LNCS Series.
