Workshops will be
held together with the main
conference during the same dates
and venue. We invite you to submit
workshop proposals on any topics
related to
computer and information technology
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 ...
·Workshop chairs/organisers: Names,
Affiliations, address, e-mail,
·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:
ongoing as received.
Workshop proposal notification: 10
business days after the recipient.
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.
For further information on preparing
a workshop proposal, please contact
the Workshops Chairs.
