Call for Satellite Events


-- ABOUT ETAPS --

The European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software
(ETAPS) is the primary European forum for academic and industrial
researchers working on topics relating to Software Science. ETAPS is
an annual event which takes place in Europe each spring since 1998.

The eighteenth conference, ETAPS 2015, will take place between April
11th and 19th, 2015 at Queen Mary University of London, in London,
United Kingdom.

London is one of the most visited and cosmopolitan cities on earth. It
is a leading global city, with strengths in the arts, commerce,
education, entertainment, fashion, finance, healthcare, media,
professional services, research and development, tourism and transport
all contributing to its prominence. It can be reached by more people,
from more destinations, in less time, than any other destination in
the world.

ETAPS main conferences will take place on April 13th-17th, 2015. They
are:

- CC: International Conference on Compiler Construction
- ESOP: European Symposium on Programming
- FASE: Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering
- FOSSACS: Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures
- POST: Principles of Security and Trust
- TACAS: Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and
Analysis of Systems


-- SATELLITE EVENTS --

The ETAPS 2015 organizing committee invites proposals for satellite
events (workshops etc.) that will complement the main
conferences. They should fall within the scope of ETAPS. This
encompasses all aspects of the system development process, including
specification, design, implementation, analysis and improvement, as
well as the languages, methodologies and tools which support these
activities, covering a spectrum from practically-motivated theory to
soundly-based practice. Satellite events provide an opportunity to
discuss and report on emerging research approaches and practical
experience relevant to theory and practice of software.

ETAPS 2015 satellite events will be held immediately before and after
the main conferences, on April 11th-12th and April 18th-19th, 2015.


-- ARRANGEMENTS FOR SATELLITE EVENTS --

The organizers of an ETAPS 2015 satellite are expected to:

- create and maintain a website for the event,

- form a PC, produce a call for papers for the event (if
appropriate),

- advertise the event through specialist mailing lists etc. to
complement the publicity of ETAPS,

- review the submissions received and make acceptance decisions,

- prepare an informal (pre)proceedings for the event (if
appropriate),

- prepare the event's program complying with any scheduling
constraints defined by the ETAPS 2015 organizing committee,

- prepare and organize the publication of a formal (post)proceedings
(if desired).

The ETAPS 2015 organizing committee will:

- promote the event on the website and in the publicity material of
ETAPS 2015

- integrate the event's program into the overall program of the
conference,

- arrange registration for the event as a component of registration
for ETAPS, collect a participation fee from the registrants,

- produce a compilation USB memory stick of the informal
(pre)proceedings of the satellite events of ETAPS 2015 and
distribute this to the registrants,

- provide the event with a meeting room of an appropriate size, A/V
equipment, coffee breaks and possibly lunch(es).

As a rule, ETAPS will not contribute toward the travel or
accommodation costs of invited speakers or organizers of satellite
events.


-- SUBMISSION OF SATELLITE EVENT PROPOSALS --

Researchers and practitioners wishing to organize satellite events are
invited to submit proposals in plain text or pdf by e-mail to Paulo
Oliva p.oliva@qmul.ac.uk).

[Caml-list] Call for papers: SynCoP 2014 (ETAPS workshop)

====================================================================
Call for papers

SynCoP 2014
1st International Workshop on the SYNthesis of COntinuous Parameters

http://lipn.univ-paris13.fr/SynCoP2014/
====================================================================


SynCoP aims at bringing together researchers working on parameter
synthesis for
systems with continuous variables, where the parameters consist of a
(usually
dense) set of constant values. Such problems arise for real-time, hybrid or
probabilistic systems where the goal is to identify suitable parameters to
achieve desired behavior, or to verify the behavior for a given range of
parameter values. A parameter could be, e.g., a delay in a real-time
system, or
a reaction rate in a biological cell model.

The workshop will take place on Sunday the 6th of April 2014, in Grenoble,
France, as a satellite of ETAPS 2014.

The workshop may be able to partially support the travel and the ETAPS
workshop
registration fees for one or two PhD or Master student(s).

*******************************************************************
2nd CALL FOR PAPERS:

CiE 2014: Language, Life, Limits

Budapest, Hungary

June 23 - 27, 2014

http://cie2014.inf.elte.hu


IMPORTANT DATES:

Submission Deadline for LNCS: 10 January 2014
Notification of authors: 3 March 2014
Deadline for final revisions: 31 March 2014


FUNDING and AWARDS:

CiE 2014 has received funding for student participation from the European
Association for Theoretical Computer Science EATCS. Please contact the PC
chairs if you are interested.

The best student paper will receive an award sponsored by Springer.


CiE 2014 is the tenth conference organized by CiE (Computability in Europe),
a European association of mathematicians, logicians, computer scientists,
philosophers, physicists and others interested in new developments in
computability and their underlying significance for the real world. Previous
meetings have taken place in Amsterdam (2005), Swansea (2006), Siena (2007),
Athens (2008), Heidelberg (2009), Ponta Delgada (2010), Sofia (2011),
Cambridge (2012), and Milan (2013).

The motto of CiE 2014 "Language, Life, Limits" intends to put a special focus
on relations between computational linguistics, natural and biological
computing, and more traditional fields of computability theory. This is to
be understood in its broadest sense including computational aspects of
problems in linguistics, studying models of computation and algorithms
inspired by physical and biological approaches as well as exhibiting limits
(and non-limits) of computability when considering different models of
computation arising from such approaches.

As with previous CiE conferences the allover glueing perspective is to
strengthen the mutual benefits of analyzing traditional and new computational
paradigms in their corresponding frameworks both with respect to practical
applications and a deeper theoretical understanding. We particularly invite
papers that build bridges between different parts of the research community.

For topics covered by the conference, please visit
http://cie2014.inf.elte.hu/?Topics
We particularly welcome submissions in emergent areas, such as bioinformatics
and natural computation, where they have a basic connection with
computability.

The purpose of this mentoring workshop is to encourage graduate
students and senior undergraduate students to pursue careers in
programming language research. This workshop will provide technical
sessions on cutting-edge research in programming languages, and
mentoring sessions on how to prepare for a research career. We will
bring together leaders in programming language research from academia
and industry to give talks on their research areas. The workshop will
engage students in a process of imagining how they might contribute to
our research community.

We especially encourage women and underrepresented minority students
to attend PLMW.

This workshop is part of the activities surrounding POPL, the Symposium
on Principles of Programming Languages, and takes place the day before
the main conference. One goal of the workshop is to make the POPL
conference more accessible to newcomers. We hope that participants will
stay through the entire conference.

A number of sponsors have generously donated scholarship funds for
qualified students to attend PLMW. These scholarships should cover
reasonable expenses (airfare, hotel, and registration fees) for
attendance at both the workshop and the POPL conference.

Students attending this year will get one year free student membership
of SIGPLAN, unless they prefer to opt out during their application.

The workshop registration is open to all. Students with alternative
sources of funding are welcome.


APPLICATION for PLMW scholarship:

The scholarship application can be accessed from the workshop web site
(http://plmw2014.inria.fr/). The deadline for full consideration of
funding is 10th December, 2013. Selected participants will be notified

======== TFP 2014 ===========

15th Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming
May 26-28, 2014
Utrecht University
Soesterberg, The Netherlands
http://www.cs.uu.nl/wiki/TFP2014/WebHome

The symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an international
forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of functional
programming,
taking a broad view of current and future trends in the area. It aspires to
be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results, and
other
contributions (see below), described in draft papers submitted prior to the
symposium. A formal post-symposium refereeing process then selects a subset
of the articles presented at the symposium and submitted for formal
publication.

Selected papers will be published as a Springer Lecture Notes in Computer
Science (LNCS) volume.

TFP 2014 will be the main event of a pair of functional programming events.
The other is the International Workshop on Trends in Functional Programming
in Education (TFPIE). TFPIE will take place on May 25th.

The TFP symposium is the heir of the successful series of Scottish
Functional
Programming Workshops. Previous TFP symposia were held in
Edinburgh (Scotland) in 2003, in Munich (Germany) in 2004,
in Tallinn (Estonia) in 2005, in Nottingham (UK) in 2006,
in New York (USA) in 2007, in Nijmegen (The Netherlands) in 2008,
in Komarno (Slovakia) in 2009, in Oklahoma (USA) in 2010, in Madrid
(Spain) in
2011, St. Andrews (UK) in 2012 and Provo (Utah, USA) in 2013.
For further general information about TFP please see the TFP homepage.

INVITED SPEAKERS

TFP is pleased to announce talks by the following two invited speakers:

John Hughes of Chalmers, Goteborg, Sweden, is well-known as author of
Why Functional Programming Matters, and as one of the designers of
QuickCheck
(together with Koen Claessen); the paper on QuickCheck won the
ICFP Most Influential Paper Award in 2010. Currently he divides his time
between
his professorship and Quviq, a company that performs property-based
testing of
software with a tool implemented in Erlang.

Dr. Geoffrey Mainland received his PhD from Harvard University where he was
advised by Greg Morrisett and Matt Welsh. After a two year postdoc with the
Programming Principles and Tools group at Microsoft Research Cambridge,
he is
now an assistant professor at Drexel University. His research focuses on
high-level programming language and runtime support for non-general purpose
computation.

SCOPE

The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various routes.
As part of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore identify the
following five article categories. High-quality articles are solicited
in any
of these categories:

Research Articles: leading-edge, previously unpublished research work
Position Articles: on what new trends should or should not be
Project Articles: descriptions of recently started new projects
Evaluation Articles: what lessons can be drawn from a finished project
Overview Articles: summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject

Articles must be original and not submitted for simultaneous publication to
any other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming:
theoretical, implementation-oriented, or more experience-oriented.
Applications of functional programming techniques to other languages are
also within the scope of the symposium.

Topics suitable for the symposium include:

Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing
Functional programming in the cloud
High performance functional computing
Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs
Dependently typed functional programming
Validation and verification of functional programs
Using functional techniques to reason about
imperative/object-oriented programs
Debugging for functional languages
Functional programming in different application areas:
security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded
systems,
global computing, grids, etc.
Interoperability with imperative programming languages
Novel memory management techniques
Program analysis and transformation techniques
Empirical performance studies
Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages
(Embedded) domain specific languages
New implementation strategies
Any new emerging trend in the functional programming area

If you are in doubt on whether your article is within the scope of TFP,
please contact the TFP 2014 program chair, Jurriaan Hage at J.Hage@uu.nl.

BEST PAPER AWARDS

To reward excellent contributions, TFP awards a prize for the best paper
accepted for the formal proceedings.

TFP traditionally pays special attention to research students,
acknowledging that students are almost by definition part of new subject
trends. A student paper is one for which the authors state that the paper
is mainly the work of students, the students are listed as first authors,
and a student would present the paper. A prize for the best student paper
is awarded each year.

In both cases, it is the PC of TFP that awards the prize.
In case the best paper happens to be a student paper, that paper will then
receive both prizes.

SPONSORS

TFP is financially supported by NWO (Netherlands Organisation for
Scientific
Research), Well-Typed and Erlang Solutions.

PAPER SUBMISSIONS

Acceptance of articles for presentation at the symposium is based on a
lightweight peer review process of extended abstracts (4 to 10 pages in
length) or full papers (16 pages). The submission must clearly indicate
which category it belongs to: research, position, project, evaluation,
or overview paper. It should also indicate whether the main author or
authors are research students. In the case of a full student paper, the
paper will receive additional feedback by one of the PC members shortly
after the symposium has taken place.

We shall use EasyChair for the refereeing process.

[Caml-list] First Call for Papers: Conf. Intelligent Computer Mathematics (CICM 2014)

[Apologies for multiple copies]

CICM 2014 - Conferences on Intelligent Computer Mathematics
July 7-11, 2014 at University of Coimbra, Portugal

http://www.cicm-conference.org/2014

First Call for Papers

-------------------------------------------------------------------

As computers and communications technology advance, greater
opportunities arise for intelligent mathematical computation. While
computer algebra, automated deduction, mathematical publishing and
novel user interfaces individually have long and successful histories,
we are now seeing increasing opportunities for synergy among these
areas. The Conferences on Intelligent Computer Mathematics (CICM)
offer a venue for discussing these areas and their synergy.

CICM has been held annually as a joint meeting since 2008, colocating
related conferences and workshops to advance work in these subjects.
Previous meetings have been held in Birmingham (U.K. 2008), Grand Bend
(Canada 2009), Paris (France 2010), Bertinoro (Italy 2011), Bremen
(Germany 2012) and Bath (U.K. 2013).

This is a call for papers for CICM 2014, which will be held at the
University of Coimbra, 7-11 July 2014, following the 10th
International Workshop on Automated Deduction in Geometry.

The principal tracks of the conference will be:

Calculemus (Symbolic Computation and Mechanised Reasoning)
Chair: James Davenport

DML (Digital Mathematical Libraries)
Chair: Petr Sojka

MKM (Mathematical Knowledge Management)
Chair: Josef Urban

Systems and Projects
Chair: Alan Sexton

The local arrangements will be coordinated by the Local Arrangements
Chair, Paedro Quaresma (U. Coimbra, Portugal), and the overall
programme will be organised by the General Program Chair, Stephen Watt
(U. Western Ontario, Canada).

The proceedings of the conference will be published by Springer Verlag
as a volume in Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI).

As in previous years, it is anticipated that there will be a number
co-located workshops, including one to mentor doctoral students giving
presentations.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Tracks
----------------------------------------------------------------

================================================================
Track Calculemus: Symbolic Computation and Mechanised Reasoning
================================================================

Calculemus 2014 invites the submission of original research
contributions to be considered for publication and presentation at the
conference. Calculemus is a series of conferences dedicated to the
integration of computer algebra systems (CAS) and systems for
mechanised reasoning like interactive proof assistants (PA) or
automated theorem provers (ATP). Currently, symbolic computation is
divided into several (more or less) independent branches: traditional
ones (e.g., computer algebra and mechanised reasoning) as well as
newly emerging ones (on user interfaces, knowledge management, theory
exploration, etc.) The main concern of the Calculemus community is to
bring these developments together in order to facilitate the theory,
design, and implementation of integrated mathematical assistant
systems that will be used routinely by mathematicians, computer
scientists and all others who need computer-supported mathematics in
their every day business.

All topics in the intersection of computer algebra systems and
automated reasoning systems are of interest for Calculemus. These
include but are not limited to:

* Automated theorem proving in computer algebra systems.
* Computer algebra in theorem proving systems.
* Adding reasoning capabilities to computer algebra systems.
* Adding computational capabilities to theorem proving systems.
* Theory, design and implementation of interdisciplinary systems for
computer mathematics.
* Case studies and applications that involve a mix of computation and
reasoning.
* Case studies in formalization of mathematical theories.
* Representation of mathematics in computer algebra systems.
* Theory exploration techniques.
* Combining methods of symbolic computation and formal deduction.
* Input languages, programming languages, types and constraint languages,
and modeling languages for mathematical assistant systems.
* Homotopy type theory.
* Infrastructure for mathematical services.

================================================================
Track DML: Digital Mathematical Libraries
================================================================

Mathematicians dream of a digital archive containing all validated
mathematical literature ever published, reviewed, properly linked, and
verified. It is estimated that the entire corpus of mathematical
knowledge published over the centuries does not exceed 100,000,000
pages, an amount easily manageable by current information
technologies.

The track objective is to provide a forum for the development of
math-aware technologies, standards, algorithms and formats for the
fulfillment of the dream of a global digital mathematical library
(DML). Computer scientists (D) and librarians of the digital age (L)
are especially welcome to join mathematicians (M) and discuss many
aspects of DML preparation.

Track topics are all topics of mathematical knowledge management and
digital libraries applicable in the context of DML building, including
the processing of mathematical knowledge expressed in scientific
papers in natural languages:

* Math-aware text mining (math mining) and MSC classification
* Math-aware representations of mathematical knowledge
* Math-aware computational linguistics and corpora
* Math-aware tools for [meta]data and fulltext processing
* Math-aware OCR and document analysis
* Math-aware information retrieval
* Math-aware indexing and search
* Authoring languages and tools
* MathML, OpenMath, TeX and other mathematical content markup
languages
* Web interfaces for DML content
* Mathematics on the web, math crawling and indexing
* Math-aware document processing workflows
* Archives of written mathematics
* DML management, business models
* DML rights handling, funding, sustainability
* DML content acquisition, validation and curation
* Reports and experience from running existing DMLs

================================================================
Track MKM: Mathematical Knowledge Management
================================================================

Mathematical Knowledge Management is an interdisciplinary field of
research in the intersection of mathematics, computer science, library
science, and scientific publishing. The objective of MKM is to develop
new and better ways of managing sophisticated mathematical knowledge,

The Systems and Projects track of the Conferences on Intelligent
Computer Mathematics is a forum for presenting available systems and
new and ongoing projects in all areas and topics related to the CICM
conferences:

* Deduction and Computer Algebra (Calculemus)
* Digital Mathematical Libraries (DML)
* Mathematical Knowledge Management (MKM)

The track aims to provide an overview of the latest developments and
trends within the CICM community as well as to exchange ideas between
developers and introduce systems to an audience of potential users.


----------------------------------------------------------------
Submission Instructions
----------------------------------------------------------------

Electronic submission is done through Easychair

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cicm2014

All papers should be prepared in LaTeX and formatted according to the
requirements of Springer's LNCS series (the corresponding style files
can be downloaded from http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html).
By submitting a paper the authors agree that if it is accepted at
least one of the authors will attend the conference to present it.

Submissions to the research tracks (Calculemus, DML, MKM) must not
exceed 15 pages in the LNCS style and will be reviewed and evaluated
with respect to relevance, clarity, quality, originality, and impact.
Shorter papers, e.g., for system descriptions, are welcome. Authors
will have an opportunity to respond to their papers' reviews before
the programme committee makes a decision.


System descriptions and projects descriptions should be 2-4 pages in
the LNCS style and should present

* newly developed systems,
* systems not previously been presented to the CICM community, or
* significant updates to existing systems.

Systems must either be available for download or currently executable
by the general public as a web application.

Project presentations should describe

* projects that are new or about to start,
* ongoing projects that have not yet been presented to the CICM community or
* significant new developments in ongoing previously presented projects.

Presentations of new projects should mention relevant previous work
and include a roadmap that outlines concrete steps. All project
submissions must have a live project website and should contain links
to demos, videos, downloadable systems or downloadable datasets.

Accepted conference submissions from all tracks will be published as a
volume in the series Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI)
by Springer. In addition to these formal proceedings, authors are
permitted and encouraged to publish the final versions of their papers
on arXiv.org.

Work-in-progress submissions are intended to provide a forum for the
presentation of original work that is not yet in a suitable form for
submission as a full paper for a research track or system description.
This includes work in progress and emerging trends. Their size is not
limited, but we recommend 5-10 pages.

The programme committee may offer authors of rejected formal
submissions the opportunity to publish their contributions as
work-in-progress papers instead. Depending on the number of
work-in-progress papers accepted, they will be presented at the
conference either as short talks or as posters. The work-in-progress
proceedings will be published as a technical report, as well as online
with CEUR-WS.org.


----------------------------------------------------------------
Doctoral Programme
----------------------------------------------------------------

Chair: David Wilson (University of Bath, UK)

CICM is an excellent opportunity for graduate students to meet
established researchers from the areas of computer algebra, automated
deduction, and mathematical publishing.

The Doctoral Programme provides a dedicated forum for PhD students to
present and discuss their ideas, ongoing or planned research, and
achieved results in an open atmosphere. It will consist of
presentations by the PhD students to get constructive feedback,
advice, and suggestions from the research advisory board, researchers,
and other PhD students. Each PhD student will be assigned to an
experienced researcher from the research advisory board who will act
as a mentor and who will provide detailed feedback and advice on their
intended and ongoing research.


Students at any stage of their PhD can apply and should submit the
following documents through EasyChair:

* A two-page abstract of your thesis describing your research
questions, research plans, completed and remaining research,
evaluation plans and publication plans;

* A two-page CV that includes background information (name,
university, supervisor), education (degree sought, year/status of
degree, previous degrees), employments, relevant research experience
(publications, presentations, attended conferences or workshops,
etc.)

Submission Deadline: 28 April 2014.

[Caml-list] Call for Participation: Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop - a POPL workshop.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

SIGPLAN Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop, San Diego, USA

Tuesday January 21, 2014

Co-located with POPL 2014

PLMW web page: http://plmw2014.inria.fr/

After the resounding success of the first two Programming Languages
Mentoring Workshops at POPL 2012 and POPL 2013, we proudly announce the
3rd SIGPLAN Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop (PLMW), co-located
with POPL 2014 and organised by Amal Ahmed, Benjamin C. Pierce, and Alan
Schmitt.

The purpose of this mentoring workshop is to encourage graduate
students and senior undergraduate students to pursue careers in
programming language research. This workshop will provide technical
sessions on cutting-edge research in programming languages, and
mentoring sessions on how to prepare for a research career. We will
bring together leaders in programming language research from academia
and industry to give talks on their research areas. The workshop will
engage students in a process of imagining how they might contribute to
our research community.

We especially encourage women and underrepresented minority students
to attend PLMW.

This workshop is part of the activities surrounding POPL, the Symposium
on Principles of Programming Languages, and takes place the day before
the main conference. One goal of the workshop is to make the POPL
conference more accessible to newcomers. We hope that participants will
stay through the entire conference.

A number of sponsors have generously donated scholarship funds for
qualified students to attend PLMW. These scholarships should cover
reasonable expenses (airfare, hotel, and registration fees) for
attendance at both the workshop and the POPL conference.

Students attending this year will get one year free student membership
of SIGPLAN, unless they prefer to opt out during their application.

The workshop registration is open to all. Students with alternative
sources of funding are welcome.

APPLICATION for PLMW scholarship:

The scholarship application can be accessed from the workshop web site
(http://plmw2014.inria.fr/). The deadline for full consideration of
funding is 10th December, 2013. Selected participants will be notified
from Friday 14th December, and will need to register for the workshop by
December 24th.

[Caml-list] Call for Workshops: Conf. Intelligent Computer Mathematics (CICM 2014)

CICM 2014 - Conferences on Intelligent Computer Mathematics
July 7-11, 2014 at University of Coimbra, Portugal

http://www.cicm-conference.org/2014

*** Call for Workshop Proposals ***

----------------------------------------------------------------------

As computers and communications technology advance, greater
opportunities arise for intelligent mathematical computation. While
computer algebra, automated deduction, mathematical publishing and
novel user interfaces individually have long and successful histories,
we are now seeing increasing opportunities for synergy among these
areas.
The Conferences on Intelligent Computer Mathematics (CICM) offer a
venue for discussing these areas and their synergy.

CICM has been held annually as a joint meeting since 2008, colocating
related conferences and workshops to advance work in these subjects.
Previous meetings have been held in Birmingham (U.K. 2008), Grand Bend
(Canada 2009), Paris (France 2010), Bertinoro (Italy 2011), Bremen
(Germany 2012) and Bath (U.K. 2013).

This is a call for proposals for workshops to be held at CICM 2014,
which will be held in Coimbra (Portugal), July 7-11 next year.

The principal tracks of the 2014 meeting will be

Calculemus (Symbolic Computation and Mechanised Reasoning)
DML (Towards a Digital Mathematics Library)
MKM (Mathematical Knowledge Management)
Systems and Projects

Some of the workshops that have been held at past CICM meetings are:

Automated Reasoning: Bridging the Gap between Theory and Practice
Compact Computer Algebra
Empirically Successful Automated Reasoning for Mathematics
Intelligent Proof Search
Mathematical user Interfaces
OpenMath
Pen-Based Mathematical Computation
Programming languages for Mechanized Mathematics Systems
SCIEnce

Proposals for workshops to be held at CICM 2014 are solicited. Both
well-established workshops and newer or brand new ones are encouraged.

Please provide the following information:

+ Workshop title.
+ Names and affiliations of organizers.
+ Brief description of workshop goals and/or topics.
+ Proposed workshop duration (half a day up to two days is possible).
+ If the workshop has met previously, please include the conference
affiliation for the previous meeting. If the workshop is new,
please indicate so.

Fees for conference participants will be levied on a per-day basis, so
workshop-only participation is possible. The CICM organizers plan to
make available a small amount towards partial reimbursement for travel
expenses of invited speakers. Also, CICM will take care of copying and
distributing informal printed proceedings for workshops that would
like this service, as well as permanently archived open access online
proceedings with CEUR-WS.org.

All proposals should be sent via email to

cicm-organizers@lists.jacobs-university.de
