Workshops
will be held together with
the main
conference SmartCity 2016
during the same dates and venue. We
invite you to submit workshop
proposals on any topics related to
Smart City to the
Workshop Chairs.The purpose of
these workshops is to offer to
researchers a good opportunity to
present their work in a more focused
way than the conference itself and
to obtain feedback from an
interested community.
Workshops that
focus on new and emerging topics, or
on applications and industry
contributions are particularly
encouraged.
In general, a workshop takes one
day, although multiple-day and
half-day workshops are welcome.
A
workshop proposal should contain at
least:
· Title
of workshop: International
workshop on ...
· Brief
description of the workshop (several
hundred words)
· The
workshop tentative deadlines and
website if set up already
· Prior
history of this workshop, if any.
Important dates:
Workshop proposal submission:
May 25,
2016.
Workshop proposal notification:
June 10,
2016.
Suggested Paper Status Notification:
up to individual workshop organisers
Camera-ready due: the same as main
conference
Each workshop will start to
distribute a call for paper after
receiving the notification. Papers
submitted to each workshop will be
reviewed by the program committee
and external reviewers of the
workshop.
Once accepted, each workshop
organisers are in charge of:
· Setting
up a Web site for the workshop
according to the template that will
be distributed upon acceptance.
· Establishing
own paper submission system.
· Deciding
own submission deadlines, but
following the same camera-ready
deadline and registration deadline
as the
main conference.
· Ensuring
that each paper selected for
inclusion in the proceedings will be
registered for
the main conference at the
same registration rates. Each paper
must be presented in person by the
author, or one of the authors.
Proceedings of the workshops will be
published by IEEE Computer Society
Press, in the same proceedings of
main conference,
and will be made available to all
conference registrants on site.
Please organize your workshop as
early as possible to ensure your
effort turn out to be fruitful. In
particular we suggest to make
explicit the different focus of your
workshop, if compared with eventual
overlapping conference topics, in
order to attract relevant
contributions.

a workshop proposal, please contact
the Workshops Chairs.
