First Call for Workshops Proposals

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Proposals Preparation
-----------------------------------------------------------------

The AI*IA 2018 Conference will host a series of workshops dedicated to
specific/hot topics that will complement the main conference program. AI*IA
Working Groups, scientific and industrial research groups as well as
individual researchers interested in a subarea of Artificial Intelligence
or in a related topic of growing importance are invited to submit proposals
of workshops associated with the AI*IA 2018 conference. We particularly
welcome proposals aimed at bringing together researchers from a wide range
of disciplines, to exchange ideas and to allow cross-fertilization.

Workshop proposals should be submitted in English as a single PDF file not
longer than 4 (four) pages containing the following sections:

- Workshop title and acronym
- Workshop organizers (affiliation, contact details, homepage, prior
experiences with workshop organization)
- Motivations and scientific relevance to the conference audience
- Keywords (describing the main themes of the workshop) (from 3 to 5)
- Abstract (up to 200 words)
- Description of the workshop (topics and goals of the workshop) (up to 800
words)
- Organizational details such as: thematic panels, demo sessions, invited
talks
- Initial list of (potential) members of the program committee
- Previous editions of the workshop series (if applicable) (URLs,
conference it was co-located with, number of registrants, number of
submissions, number of accepted papers, and any other relevant information)
- Length of the workshop (in hours)

Proposal submissions should be done via Easychair (
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aixia2018wt)

The expected number of submissions is at least 5 for half day workshops and
at least 8 for full day ones.
Workshops that do not reach the suggested target might not be activated.

Workshop schedule: each workshop will be assigned a number of slots (from 1
to 3 slots) during the conference days. A slot can vary from 1 to 2.5
hours. The distribution of slots will take into account the accepted papers
and workshop organization.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Management of the submission, review, and publishing process
-----------------------------------------------------------------

The workshops organizers will manage on their own the submission, review,
and publishing process. However, the key dates and the publication policy
must be shared with the conference organizers.

Workshop proceedings should preferably be published in CEUR Workshop
Proceedings AI*IA Series http://ceur-ws.org/aixia.html

The workshop Call for Paper and all other calls as well as the web site
will have to clearly state that the workshop is held within the AI*IA 2018
Conference, including the URL of the conference website.

through the AI*IA 2018 registration service.
