ICALP-LICS 2020 Call for Workshops
==================================
ICALP 2020 (
http://econcs.pku.edu.cn/icalp2020/)
and LICS 2020 (
https://lics.siglog.org/lics20/)
will take place in co-location from 8th till 12th of July 2020
in Beijing, China. The conferences will be preceded by two
days of joint workshops, held on July 6th and 7th. We invite
proposals of workshops affiliated with ICALP-LICS 2020 on all
topics covered by ICALP and LICS, as well as other areas of
theoretical computer science.
Proposals should be submitted no later than
*** November 30th, 2019 ***
by sending an email to
frederic...@inria.fr. Due to
limited space of the venue we might not be able to accommodate
all the proposed workshops. You should expect notification on
the acceptance of your proposal by mid December 2019.
A workshop proposal submission should consist of:
- workshop's name and URL (if already available)
- workshop's organizers together with their email addresses
and web pages;
- short description of the area covered by the workshop and
the motivation behind it;
- expected number of participants (if available, please
include the data of previous years);
- planned format of the event;
- date preference (July 6th or 7th).
As for the format, a standard option is a one-day workshop
consisting of invited talks by leading experts and of shorter
contributed talks, either directly invited by the organizers
or selected among submissions. Deviations from this standard
are also warmly welcome, including a shorter or a longer time
span than a full day, or other elements of the schedule like
open problem sessions, discussion panels, or working sessions.
If you plan to have invited speakers, please specify their
expected number and, if possible, tentative names. If you plan
a call for papers or for contributed talks followed by a
selection procedure, the submission date should be scheduled
after ICALP 2020 and LICS 2020 notification, while the
notification should take place considerably before the early
registration deadline. In your submission please include
details, in particular the time schedule, of the planned
procedure of selecting papers and/or contributed talks. If you
plan to have published proceedings of your workshop, please
provide the name of the publisher. Please be advised that
ICALP-LICS 2020 is not able to provide any financial support
for publishing workshop proceedings.
We expect the workshops to be financially independent. The
expenses related to the participation of invited speakers,
production of workshop materials, etc. should be covered from
independent sources. On top of standard ICALP/LICS
registration fee there will be a moderate registration fee for
the workshops that will cover coffee breaks. This workshop fee
will be waived for maximum two invited speakers for each
workshop.
