The aim of the Notes category is to provide a forum to present new, original and unpublished work that does not fit into the traditional long paper format. Notes topics can present any research relevant to the conference theme. They will be four pages in length, and will be more concise and focused than long papers.
Workshops

Workshops provide an informal and focused environment for the information exchange and discussion of Group related topics. A workshop proposal should contain a title, aim and objective, intended participants and workshop description. It should also specify the maximum number of participants, the planned duration (half-day/full-day) and the audio/visual equipment needed. Workshops will take place on Sunday, May 10, 2009.
