************** Call for Proposals for Workshops *******************
************** Petri nets 2014 *******************
*******************************************************************
The 35th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri
Nets and Concurrency (Petri nets 2014) will take place in Tunis, Tunisia
(as usual, in the last full week of June).
For this major event, we are now inviting people to submit proposals for
workshops.
The purpose of the workshops is to provide an informal setting for
workshop participants to discuss technical issues, exchange research
ideas, and to discuss and or demonstrate applications.
These workshops may be driven by fundamental academic interests or by
needs from specific application domains.
We encourage a diversity of workshops relating to Petri nets or other
models of concurrency.
All workshop proposals must be written in English.
Proposals for workshops should be no more than 3 pages in length and
submitted to the W&T chairs before 23th June 2013 (see below).
A workshop proposal should include a draft call-for-papers containing at
least the following information:
- Title and brief technical description of the workshop, specifying the
goals and the technical issues that will be its focus.
- A brief description of why and to whom the workshop is of interest.
- The names and contact information (web page, email address) of the
Program Committee (PC) chairs, i.e., the workshop organizers.
In addition, a tentative list of workshop PC members should be given. We
suggest one or two PC chairs and at least 10 PC members coming from
different countries.
Moreover, the following additional information is requested:
- A list of related workshops or similar events to be held in the same
year or within the previous two years.
- If the workshop has taken place before:
-- How often has the workshop taken place so far?
-- Which conference(s) has the workshop been colocated with so far?
-- Number of participants in the last installment.
- A discussion of the proposed format and agenda.
- The proposed duration (half, one or two days).
- Procedures for selecting participants and papers.
- Potential invited speakers.
- Expected number of participants.
- A description of track record of the workshop organizers with respect
to organizing this workshop (e.g., papers published in the proposed
topic area, previous workshop organization, other relevant information).
Each workshop program committee (in particular, the chairs) will be
responsible for the following:
- Producing a web page and a "Call for Papers/Participation" for their
workshop.
- Providing a brief description of the workshop for the Petri Nets
conference web page and program and providing a workshop web page the
Petri Nets conference can refer to for details.
- Selecting the papers for the workshop proceedings and providing the
camera ready copies ready for publication.
- All advertising of the workshop beyond web page advertising.
- Appointing session chairs, etc.
The local organization of the Petri net conference will take care of the
production of informal/electronic workshop proceedings (CEUR), assuming
that the proceedings are camera ready. After the conference we will
invite a number of the best workshop papers to contribute to a Joint
Post-proceedings, to be published in the new subseries of Lecture Notes
in Computer Science (LNCS) entitled "Transactions on Petri Nets and
Other Models of Concurrency" (ToPNoC), i.e., a selection of papers from
all workshops will be combined into a single volume. The revised papers
will go through an additional round of reviewing. Note that the W&T
chairs will be responsible for liaison with the publisher, organizing
the additional round of reviewing and the final selection.
The workshop chairs will play an important role in suggesting papers and
the final selection.
