Call for Workshop Proposals

(http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/sefm2015/workshops/)

*********************************************************************

SEFM 2015 is pleased to invite proposals for workshops to be held in
conjunction with the main conference, on Monday, September 7 and
Tuesday, September 8, 2015. We welcome proposals for half-day and
full-day workshops that aim to provide a venue for discussion and
exploring emerging areas of software engineering and formal methods,
targeted at researchers and practitioners from industry and academia.

We encourage the submission of workshop proposals aiming for a diverse
program that includes invited talks, panels, discussions and demo
sessions alongside the typical presentations of accepted papers.

We invite the submission of proposals for both the 2015 editions of
workshops that have been organized at SEFM and related conferences in
the past, and new workshops on original topics.

Post-workshop proceedings for all SEFM 2015 workshops will be
published as a joint Lecture Notes in Computer Science volume, like
the SEFM-2013 and SEFM-2014 post-workshop proceedings.

*Workshop proposal guidelines*

Workshop proposals must not exceed seven (6+1) pages in length (in the
conference submission format) and must include the following
information, in the order specified:

- Part A (up to 6 pages)

* Name and acronym of the workshop.
* Full contact information for all organizers of the workshop and main
contact person.
* Desired length of the workshop (half day or full day); notice that
full-day workshops are expected to have a program of 6-7 hours, in
addition to the usual coffee breaks and a 90-minute lunch break.
* Abstract (up to 250 words) to be used on the SEFM 2015 web site,
summarizing the themes and goals of the workshop.
* Motivation (up to 1 page) of the workshop’s relevance to the fields
of software engineering and formal methods.
* Procedures for selecting papers and participants.
* Estimated number of participants.
* Proposed format and agenda (e.g., demo sessions, tutorials, etc.),
including potential invited speakers and plans for generating and
stimulating discussion.
* Plans for dissemination, if any (e.g., workshop pre-proceedings, or
special issues of journals).
* Link to the preliminary web site of the workshop.
* Preliminary list of program committee members (either proposed or
confirmed).
* In case of workshops previously held, either at SEFM or at another
venue, the proposal must include the following information about the
previous edition(s):

* number of submissions;
* number of registered attendees;
* link to the web site;
* a short explanation indicating how a new edition of the workshop
series will contribute to the advance of the specific research
area addressed by the workshop.

* Any specific requirement the workshop may have (e.g., equipment,
room capacity).
* Brief description of each organizer’s background, including relevant
past experience in organizing conferences and workshops.

- Part B (1 page)

* Call for papers of the proposed workshop (including the list of
topics).
