____ Call for Workshops ____

  The CP 2008 Program Committee invites proposals for the Workshop
  Program.

  CP 2008 workshops will provide an informal setting where workshop
  participants will have the opportunity to discuss specific
  technical topics in an atmosphere that facilitates the active
  exchange of ideas.  It is an opportunity to disseminate work in
  progress or to promote new and emerging areas within the field of
  constraints. The topics of the workshops can cover any area related
  to constraints and any related cross-disciplinary areas.  Workshops
  related to planning and scheduling are especially encouraged
  because of the co-location with ICAPS 2008.

  All workshops will take place during 14-15 September 2008 as
  pre-conference activities along tutorials and the doctoral program.

  Workshops can be half-day or full-day.  The internal format of the
  workshop will be determined by the organisers.
