FIRST CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

The 3rd Russian Summer School in Information Retrieval will be held September
11-16, 2009 in Petrozavodsk, Russia. The school is co-organized by the Russian
Information Retrieval Evaluation Seminar (ROMIP, http://romip.ru/), Petrozavodsk
State University (http://petrsu.ru/), and Institute of Applied Mathematical
Research (http://mathem.krc.karelia.ru/). Yandex (http://yandex.ru/) confirmed as
golden sponsor of the event. The first and second RuSSIRs took place in
Ekaterinburg in 2007 and Taganrog in 2008, respectively (see
http://romip.ru/russir2007/ and http://romip.ru/russir2008/). Both schools were
very successful.

Petrozavodsk, the capital of the Republic of Karelia, was founded in 1703. It
is a large industrial and cultural center of the Russian North-West.
Petrozavodsk is 400 km away from Saint-Petersburg, an overnight train journey
from Saint-Petersburg takes about eight hours.

The target audience of the Summer School is advanced graduate and PhD students,
post-doctoral researchers, academic and industrial researchers, and developers.
The mission of the school is to teach students about a wide range of modern
problems and methods in Information Retrieval; to stimulate scientific research
in the field of Information Retrieval; and to create an opportunity for informal
contacts among scientists, students and industry professionals. RuSSIR2009 will
host approximately 100 participants. The working languages of the school are
English and Russian.

The main RuSSIR 2009 program includes four courses, five lectures each:

Information Retrieval Modeling
Djoerd Hiemstra, University of Twente

Enterprise and Desktop search
Pavel Dmitriev, Yahoo! Labs
Pavel Serdyukov, University of Twente
Sergey Chernov, L3S Research Center

The Russian Conference for Young Scientists in Information Retrieval will be
co-organized with the school. The school is expected to have a versatile social
program.

Participation in the school is free of charge. The Program Committee will form
the body of participants based on received applications.

RuSSIR 2009 is co-located with the yearly ROMIP meeting (http://romip.ru/) and
Russian Conference on Digital Libraries 2009 (http://rcdl2009.krc.karelia.ru/).
