FMCAD provides a leading forum to researchers in academia and industry for presenting and discussing groundbreaking methods, technologies, theoretical results, and tools for reasoning formally about computing systems. FMCAD covers formal aspects of computer-aided system design including verification, specification, synthesis, and testing. FMCAD employs a rigorous peer-review process. Accepted papers are distributed through both ACM and IEEE digital libraries. In addition, published articles are made available freely on the conference page; the authors retain the copyright. There are no publication fees. At least one of the authors is required to register for the conference and present the accepted paper. A small number of outstanding FMCAD submissions will be considered for inclusion in a Special Issue of the journal on Formal Methods in System Design (FMSD). TOPICS OF INTEREST FMCAD welcomes submission of papers reporting original research on advances in all aspects of formal methods and their applications to computer- aided design. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): -- Model checking, theorem proving, equivalence checking, abstraction and reduction, compositional methods, decision procedures at the bit- and word-level, probabilistic methods, combinations of deductive methods and decision procedures. -- Synthesis and compilation for computer system descriptions, modeling, specification, and implementation languages, formal semantics of languages and their subsets, model-based design, design derivation and transformation, correct-by-construction methods. -- Application of formal and semi-formal methods to functional and non-functional specification and validation of hardware and software, including timing and power modeling, verification of computing systems on all levels of abstraction, system-level design and verification for embedded systems, cyber-physical systems, automotive systems and other safety-critical systems, hardware-software co-design and verification, and transaction-level verification. -- Experience with the application of formal and semi-formal methods to industrial-scale designs; tools that represent formal verification enablement, new features, or a substantial improvement in the automation of formal methods. -- Application of formal methods to verifying safety, correctness, connectivity, and security properties of networks and distributed systems. SUBMISSIONS Submissions must be made electronically in PDF format via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fmcad17 Two categories of papers are invited: Regular papers, and Tool & Case Study papers. Regular papers are expected to offer novel foundational ideas, theoretical results, or algorithmic improvements to existing methods, along with experimental impact validation where applicable. Tool & Case Study papers are expected to report on the design, implementation or use of verification (or related) technology in a practically relevant context (which need not be industrial), and its impact on design processes. Both Regular and Tool & Case study papers must use the IEEE Transactions format on letter-size paper with a 10-point font size. Regular papers can be up to 8 pages in length and tool papers up to 4 pages, although there is no requirement to fill all pages in either category. Authors will be required to select the appropriate paper category at abstract submission time. Submissions may contain an optional appendix, which will not appear in the final version of the paper. The reviewers should be able to assess the quality and the relevance of the results in the paper without reading the appendix.

(PN) TABLEAUX/FroCoS/ITP Call for Papers
(Apologies for multiple copies. Please redistribute) * FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS TABLEAUX 2017 26th International Conference on Automated Reasoning with Analytic Tableaux and Related Methods University of BrasÃlia, Brazil September 26-29, 2017 Submission Deadline: 25 Apr 2017 http://tableaux2017.cic.unb.br/ GENERAL INFORMATION TABLEAUX is the main international conference at which research on all aspects, theoretical foundations, implementation techniques, systems development and applications, of the mechanization of tableau-based reasoning and related methods is presented. The conference will be held in BrasÃlia from 26-29 September 2017. TABLEAUX 2017 will be co-located with both the 11th International Symposium on Frontiers of Combining Systems (FroCoS 2017) and the 8th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2017). TOPICS Tableau methods offer a convenient and flexible set of tools for automated reasoning in classical logic, extensions of classical logic, and a large number of non-classical logics. For large groups of logics, tableau methods can be generated automatically. Areas of application include verification of software and computer systems, deductive databases, knowledge representation and its required inference engines, teaching, and system diagnosis. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * tableau methods for classical and non-classical logics (including first-order, higher-order, modal, temporal, description, hybrid, intuitionistic, substructural, relevance, non-monotonic logics) and their proof-theoretic foundations; * related methods (SMT, model elimination, model checking, connection methods, resolution, BDDs, translation approaches); * sequent calculi and natural deduction calculi for classical and non-classical logics, as tools for proof search and proof representation; * flexible, easily extendable, light weight methods for theorem proving; * novel types of calculi for theorem proving and verification in classical and non-classical logics; * systems, tools, implementations, empirical evaluations and applications (provers, logical frameworks, model checkers, ...); * implementation techniques (data structures, efficient algorithms, performance measurement, extensibility, ...); * extensions of tableau procedures with conflict-driven learning, generation of proofs; compact (or humanly readable) representation of proofs; * decision procedures, theoretically optimal procedures; * applications of automated deduction to mathematics, software development, verification, deductive and temporal databases, knowledge representation, ontologies, fault diagnosis or teaching. We also welcome papers describing applications of tableau procedures to real world examples. Such papers should be tailored to the tableau community and should focus on the role of reasoning, and logical aspects of the solution. WORKSHOPS AND TUTORIALS Proposals for Workshops and Tutorial sessions have been solicited in a separate call, which can be found at http://tableaux2017.cic.unb.br/#cfw. PUBLICATION DETAILS The conference proceedings will published in the Springer LNAI/LNCS series, as in previous editions. SUBMISSIONS Submissions are invited in two categories: A Research papers, which describe original theoretical research, original algorithms, or applications, with length up to 15 pages. B System descriptions, with length up to 9 pages. Submissions will be reviewed by the PC, possibly with the help of external reviewers, taking into account readability, relevance and originality. For category A, theoretical results and algorithms must be original, and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Submissions will be reviewed taking into account correctness, theoretical elegance, and possible implementability. For category B submissions, a working implementation must be accessible via the internet, which includes sources. The aim of a system description is to make the system available in such a way that users can use it, understand it, and build on it. Accepted papers in both categories will be published in the conference proceedings. Papers must be edited in LaTeX using the llncs style and must be submitted electronically as PDF files via the EasyChair system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tableaux2017. For all accepted papers at least one author is required to attend the conference and present the paper. A paper title and a short abstract of about 100 words must be submitted before the paper

(PN) TABLEAUX - Call for Papers
SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS TABLEAUX 2015 24th International Conference on Automated Reasoning with Analytic Tableaux and Related Methods Wroclaw, Poland, September 21-24, 2015 http://tableaux2015.ii.uni.wroc.pl/ GENERAL INFORMATION TABLEAUX 2015 is the 24th in the series of international meetings on Automated Reasoning with Analytic Tableaux and Related Methods, and will be held in Wroclaw, Poland, during September 21-24, 2015. TABLEAUX 2015 will be co-located with the 10th International Symposium on Frontiers of Combining Systems (FroCoS 2015). The computer science institute of Wroclaw has a large experience in hosting international conferences. It has hosted the IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS 2007), the 24th International Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE 2011), and the 22nd European Symposium on Algorithms (ALGO 2014). TOPICS Tableaux methods offer a convenient and flexible set of tools for automated reasoning in classical logic, extensions of classical logic, and a large number of non-classical logics. For large groups of logics, tableaux methods can be generated automatically. Areas of application include verification of software and computer systems, deductive databases, knowledge representation and its required inference engines, teaching, and system diagnosis. The conference series aims to bring together researchers interested in all aspects of tableaux - theoretical foundations, applications, and implementation techniques. * tableaux methods for classical and non-classical logics (e.g. modal, temporal, description, intuitionistic, substructural, fuzzy, paraconsistent logics) and their proof theoretic foundations. * related methods (model elimination, model checking, connection methods, resolution, BDDs). * sequent calculi for classical and non-classical logics, as tools for proof search and proof representation. * flexible, easily extendable, light weight methods for theorem proving. * novel types of calculi for theorem proving and verification in classical and non-classical logics. * systems, tools, implementations and applications (provers, logical frameworks, model checkers, ... ). * implementation techniques (data structures, efficient algorithms, performance measurement, extendibility, ... ). * extensions of tableaux procedures with conflict-driven learning, generation of proofs; compact (or humanly readable) representation of proofs. * decision procedures, theoretically optimal procedures. * applications of automated deduction to mathematics, software development, protocol verification, or teaching. TABLEAUX 2015 also welcomes papers describing applications of tableaux procedures to real world examples. Such papers should be tailored to the tableaux community and should focus on the role of reasoning, and logical aspects of the solution. SUBMISSIONS Submissions are invited in two categories: A Research papers, which describe original theoretical research, original algorithms, or applications, with length up to 15 pages. B System descriptions, with length up to 10 pages. Submissions will be reviewed by the PC, possibly will help of external reviewers, taking into account readability, relevance and originality. For category A, theoretical results and algorithms must be original, and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Submissions will be reviewed taking into account correctness, theoretical prettyness, and possible implementability. For category B submissions, a working implementation must be available on the internet, which includes sources. The aim of a system description is to make the system available in such a way that users can use it, understand it, and build on it. Accepted papers in both categories will be published in the conference proceedings (within the LNAI series of Springer). For accepted papers in both of the categories, at least one author is required to attend the conference and present the paper. Further information and instructions about submissions can be found on the conference website http://tableaux2015.ii.uni.wroc.pl IMPORTANT DATES Abstract submission deadline: May 8th, 2015 Paper submission deadline:May 15th, 2015 Author Notification: July 1st, 2015 Final Version:July 17th 2015 Conference: September 21st-24th, 2015 PROGRAM COMMITTEE - Marc Bezem, University of Bergen, Norway Agata Ciabattoni, Vienna University of Technology, Austria David Delahaye, National Conservatory of Arts

(PN) TESTS AND PROOFS - Deadline extended
* * 9th International Conference * on * TESTS AND PROOFS (TAP 2015) * * http://tap2015.in.tum.de/ * * Part of STAF 2015, L'Aquila, Italy, July 20-24, 2015 * http://www.disim.univaq.it/staf2015/ * * * Call for Papers * * Abstract submission: February 23, 2015 (extended) * Paper submission:February 27, 2015 (extended) * Scope = The TAP conference is devoted to the synergy of proofs and tests, to the application of techniques from both sides and their combination for the advancement of software quality. Testing and proving seem to be orthogonal techniques: Once a program has been proven to be correct then additional testing seems pointless; however, when such a proof in not feasible, then testing the program seems to be the only option. This view has dominated the research community for a long time, and has resulted in distinct communities pursuing the different research areas. The development of both approaches has led to the discovery of common issues and to the realization of potential synergy. Perhaps the use of model checking in testing was one of the first signs that a counterexample to a proof may be interpreted as a test case. Recent breakthroughs in deductive techniques such as satisfiability modulo theories, abstract interpretation, and interactive theorem proving have paved the way for new and practically effective methods of powering testing techniques. Moreover, since formal, proof-based verification is costly, testing invariants and background theories can be helpful to detect errors early and to improve cost effectiveness. Summing up, in the past few years an increasing number of research efforts have encountered the need for combining proofs and tests, dropping earlier dogmatic views of incompatibility and taking instead the best of what each of these software engineering domains has to offer. The TAP conference aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the converging fields of testing and proving by offering a generous forum for the presentation of ongoing research, for tutorials on established technologies and for informal discussions. Topics of Interest == Topics of interest cover theory definitions, tool constructions and experimentations, and include among others: - Bridging the gap between concrete and symbolic techniques, e.g. using proof search in satisfiability modulo theories solvers to enhance various testing techniques - Transfer of concepts from testing to proving (e.g., coverage criteria) and from proving to testing - Program proving with the aid of testing techniques - Verification and testing techniques combining proofs and tests - Generation of test data, oracles, or preambles by deductive techniques such as: theorem proving, model checking, symbolic execution, constraint logic programming - Model-based testing and verification - Generation of specifications by deduction - Automatic bug finding - Debugging of programs combining static and dynamic analysis - Case studies combining tests and proofs - Domain specific applications of testing and proving to new application domains such as validating security protocols, vulnerability detection of programs, security - Testing of verification environments and reasoning engines like solvers and theorem provers - New approaches such as crowd-sourcing and serious games to infer intended semantics and assess correctness - Formal frameworks - Tool descriptions and experience reports Important Dates: Abstract submission: February 23, 2015 (extended) Paper submission: February 27, 2015 (extended) Notification: April 13, 2015 Camera-ready version: May 3, 2015 STAF conferences: July 20-24, 2015 Program Co-Chairs: === Jasmin C.

(PN) CADE-25 Workshops- Calls for Papers
** The Fourth International Workshop on Proof eXchange for Theorem Proving (PxTP) == http://pxtp15.lri.fr Background == The PxTP workshop brings together researchers working on various aspects of communication, integration, and cooperation between reasoning systems and formalisms. The progress in computer-aided reasoning, both automated and interactive, during the past decades, made it possible to build deduction tools that are increasingly more applicable to a wider range of problems and are able to tackle larger problems progressively faster. In recent years, cooperation of such tools in larger verification environments has demonstrated the potential to reduce the amount of manual intervention. Examples include the Sledgehammer tool providing an interface between Isabelle and (untrusted) automated provers, and also collaboration of the HOL Light and Isabelle systems in the formal proof of the Kepler conjecture. Cooperation between reasoning systems relies on availability of theoretical formalisms and practical tools to exchange problems, proofs, and models. The PxTP workshop strives to encourage such cooperation by inviting contributions on suitable integration, translation and communication methods, standards, protocols, and programming interfaces. The workshop welcomes the interested developers of automated and interactive theorem proving tools, developers of combined systems, developers and users of translation tools and interfaces, and producers of standards and protocols. We are interested both in success stories and in descriptions of the current bottlenecks and proposals for improvement. Topics == Topics of interest for this workshop include all aspects of cooperation between reasoning tools, whether automatic or interactive. More specifically, some suggested topics are: - applications that integrate reasoning tools (ideally with certification of the result); - translations between logics, proof systems, models; - distribution of proof obligations among heterogeneous reasoning tools; - algorithms and tools for checking and importing (replaying, reconstructing) proofs; - proposed formats for expressing problems and solutions for different classes of logic solvers (SAT, SMT, QBF, first-order logic, higher-order logic, typed logic, rewriting, etc.); - meta-languages, logical frameworks, communication methods, standards, protocols, and APIs connected to problems, proofs, and models; - comparison, refactoring, and optimization of proofs; - practical experiences, case studies, feasibility studies; - applications relying on importing proofs from automatic theorem provers, such as certified static analysis, proof-carrying code, or certified compilation; - data structures and algorithms for improved proof production in solvers (e.g., efficient proof representations). Submissions === Researchers interested in participating are invited to submit either an extended abstract (up to 8 pages) or a regular paper (up to 15 pages). Submissions will be refereed by the program committee, which will select a balanced program of high-quality contributions.

(PN) Essays in Memory of Mark Stickel
CALL FOR PAPERS Making Automated Reasoning Practical: Essays in Memory of Mark Stickel Submission Deadline: March 1st, 2014 AIM This is a book of collected articles presenting research in all aspects of automated reasoning, in particular the design of automated reasoning systems and their applications. A common theme behind Mark Stickel's work was developing techniques for building better automated reasoning systems. His discoveries were ground-breaking and include AC-unification, reasoning modulo a theory, term indexing, and thorough development of the SNARK and PTTP provers. In 2002 he received the Herbrand award for all his work, the highest award in automated reasoning (http://www.cadeinc.org/). We would like to honour Mark's achievements by editing a Festschrift comprised of articles in the spirit of his research approach: developing fundamental techniques driven by practical applications and informed by rigorous theory.

(PN) LPAR-19 in South Africa - Paper Deadline
=== LPAR-19 CALL FOR PAPERS === The 19th International Conference on Logic for Programming, Artificial Intelligence and Reasoning Stellenbosch, South Africa, 14-19 December 2013 www.LPAR-19.info The series of International Conferences on Logic for Programming, Artificial Intelligence and Reasoning (LPAR) is a forum where, year after year, some of the most renowned researchers in the areas of logic, automated reasoning, computational logic, programming languages and their applications come to present cutting-edge results, to discuss advances in these fields, and to exchange ideas in a scientifically emerging part of the world. The 19th LPAR will be held in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Logic is a fundamental organizing principle in nearly all areas in Computer Science. It runs a multifaceted gamut from the foundational to the applied. At one extreme, it underlies computability and complexity theory and the formal semantics of programming languages. At the other extreme, it drives billions of gates every day in the digital circuits of processors of all kinds. Logic is in itself a powerful programming paradigm, but it is also the quintessential specification language for anything ranging from real-time critical systems to networked infrastructures. Logical techniques link implementation and specification through formal methods such as automated theorem proving and model checking. Logic is also the stuff of knowledge representation and artificial intelligence. Because of its ubiquity, logic has acquired a central role in Computer Science education. Topics -- New results in the fields of computational logic and applications are welcome. Also welcome are more exploratory presentations, which may examine open questions and raise fundamental concerns about existing theories and practices. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Abduction and interpolation methods * Automated reasoning * Constraint programming * Decision procedures * Description logics * Foundations of security * Hardware verification * Implementations of logic * Interactive theorem proving * Knowledge representation and reasoning * Logic and computational complexity * Logic and databases * Logic and games * Logic and machine learning * Logic and the web * Logic and types * Logic in artificial intelligence * Logic of distributed systems * Logic programming * Logical aspects of concurrency * Logical foundations of programming * Modal and temporal logics * Model checking * Non-monotonic reasoning * Ontologies and large knowledge bases * Probabilistic and fuzzy reasoning * Program analysis * Rewriting * Satisfiability checking * Satisfiability modulo theories * Software verification * Specification using logic * Unification theory Programme Chairs * Ken McMillan * Aart Middeldorp * Andrei Voronkov Conference Chairs * Bernd Fischer * Geoff Sutcliffe Workshop Chair -- * Laura Kovacs Submission Details -- Submissions of two kinds are welcome: * Regular papers that describe solid new research results. They can be up to 15 pages long in LNCS style, including figures and references, but excluding appendices (that reviewers are not required to read). * Experimental and tool papers that describe implementations of systems, report experiments with implemented systems, or compare implemented systems. They can be up to 8 pages long in the LNCS style. Both types of papers can be electronically submitted in PDF via EasyChar: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lpar19. Prospective authors are required to register a title and an abstract a week before the paper submission deadline (see below).

(PN) CADE-24 Workshops
Call for Papers Workshops at CADE-24 -- Lake Placid, New York, 9-10 June, 2013 Short CFPs for the following CADE-24 workshops are attached: ADDCT - Automated Deduction: Decidability, Complexity, Tractability ARSEC - Automated Reasoning in Security ARiSVe - Automated Reasoning in Software Verification ESARAI - Empirically Successful Automated Reasoning with AI KInAR - Knowledge Intensive Automated Reasoning PxTP - Proof Exchange for Theorem Proving For the Workshop Methods for Modalities (M4M) respective Information will be distributed soon. Moreover, CADE-24 will host a StarExec meeting. = ADDCT == ADDCT - Automated Deduction: Decidability, Complexity, Tractability Decidability, and especially complexity and tractability of logical theories is extremely important for a large number of applications. Although general logical formalisms (such as predicate logic or number theory) are undecidable, decidable theories or decidable fragments thereof (sometimes even with low complexity) often occur in mathematics, in program verification, in the verification of reactive, real time or hybrid systems, as well as in databases and ontologies. It is therefore important to identify such decidable fragments and design efficient decision procedures for them. It is equally important to have uniform methods (such as resolution, rewriting, tableaux, sequent calculi, ...) which can be tuned to provide algorithms with optimal complexity. The goal of ADDCT is to bring together researchers interested in - identifying (fragments of) logical theories which are decidable, identifying fragments thereof which have low complexity, and analyzing possibilities of obtaining optimal complexity results with uniform tools; - analyzing decidability in combinations of theories and possibilities of combining decision procedures; - efficient implementations for decidable fragments; - application domains where decidability resp. tractability are crucial. Full Paper submission: March 26, 2013 Notification: April 26, 2013 Final versions: May 10, 2013 Workshop: June 10, 2013 More details: http://userpages.uni-koblenz.de/~sofronie/addct-2013/ = ARSEC == ARSEC - Automated Reasoning in Security Automated reasoning methods have become increasingly critical in many areas of security, from analyzing cryptographic protocols for flaws to analyzing access-control and privacy policies. This interaction is proving to be mutually beneficial: automated reasoning methods are finding new applications in security; and new automated reasoning methods, developed for security applications, are enriching the tools available to all areas of automated reasoning. ARSEC will bring together researchers interested in automated reasoning and security to present recent work (including work in progress) and to discuss new ideas and trends in the field. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: - Security Protocols - Security Policies - Privacy and Confidentiality - Intrusion Detection - Automated Reasoning techniques such as Paramodulation, Rewriting, Unification and Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT). Paper Submission: March 25th Workshop: June 9th 2013 More details: http://www.cs.albany.edu/~marshall/ARSEC/ = ARiSVe = ARiSVe - Automated Reasoning in Software Verification The focus of the workshop is application of automated reasoning in the context of software verification, and, more generally, automation in software verification. Relevant topics include but are not limited to: - specifics of verification-related automated reasoning tasks; - efficient translation of high-level verification conditions to logical languages of automated reasoning tools; - handling of the prover's feedback: proofs, models, answer terms; - logical theories of interest for program verification, decision procedures, integration into existing ATP and SMT systems; - combination of automated and user-assisted verification; tool presentations, tool comparisons, and benchmarks; - experience reports on verification of complex algorithms and real-life software with the use of automated reasoning tools.

(PN) LPAR-17 in Indonesia - Calls for Papers and Workshop Proposals
=== LPAR-17 CALL FOR PAPERS CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS === The 17th International Conference on Logic for Programming, Artificial Intelligence and Reasoning Yogyakarta, Indonesia - October 10th-15th, 2010 http://www.computational-logic.org/lpar-17/Home.html The series of International Conferences on Logic for Programming, Artificial Intelligence and Reasoning (LPAR) is a forum where, year after year, some of the most renowned researchers in the areas of logic, automated reasoning, computational logic, programming languages and their applications come to present cutting-edge results, to discuss advances in these fields, and to exchange ideas in a scientifically emerging part of the world. The 17th LPAR will be held in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Logic is a fundamental organizing principle in nearly all areas in Computer Science. It runs a multifaceted gamut from the foundational to the applied. At one extreme, it underlies computability and complexity theory and the formal semantics of programming languages. At the other extreme, it drives billions of gates every day in the digital circuits of processors of all kinds. Logic is in itself a powerful programming paradigm, but it is also the quintessential specification language for anything ranging from real-time critical systems to networked infrastructures. Logical techniques link implementation and specification through formal methods such as automated theorem proving and model checking. Logic is also the stuff of knowledge representation and artificial intelligence. Because of its ubiquity, logic has acquired a central role in Computer Science education. Topics -- New results in the fields of computational logic and applications are welcome. Also welcome are more exploratory presentations, which may examine open questions and raise fundamental concerns about existing theories and practices. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Automated reasoning * Verification * Interactive theorem proving and proof assistants * Model checking * Implementations of logic * Satisfiability modulo theories * Rewriting and unification * Logic programming * Satisfiability checking * Constraint programming * Decision procedures * Logic and games * Logic and the Web * Ontologies and large knowledge bases * Logic and databases * Modal and temporal logics * Program analysis * Foundations of security * Description logics * Non-monotonic reasoning * Uncertainty reasoning * Logics for vague and inconsistent data * Specification using logic * Logic in artificial intelligence * Logic and types * Logical foundations of programming * Logical aspects of concurrency * Logic and computational complexity * Knowledge representation and reasoning * Logic of distributed systems Programme Chairs * Chris Fermueller * Andrei Voronkov Submission Details -- Submissions of two kinds are welcome: * Regular papers that describe solid new research results. They can be up to 15 pages long in LNCS style, including figures and references, but excluding appendices (that reviewers are not required to read). * Experimental and tool papers that describe implementations of systems, report experiments with implemented systems, or compare implemented systems. They can be up to 8 pages long in the LNCS style. Both types of papers can be electronically submitted in PDF via EasyChar: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lpar17. Prospective authors are required to register a title and an abstract a week before the paper submission deadline (see below). Workshop Proposals -- LPAR-17 workshops will be held on October 10, either as one-day or half-day events. If you would like to propose a workshop for LPAR-17, please contact the workshop chair, Laura Kovacs, via email, by the proposal deadline (see below). Workshop proposals should contain the following data: * Name of the workshop. * Brief description of the workshop, including workshop topics. * Valid web address of the workshop. * Contact information of the workshop organizers. * An estimate of the audience size. * Proposed format of the workshop (for example, regular talks, tool demos, poster presentations, etc.). * Duration of the workshop (one-day or half-day). * Potential invited speakers (if any). * Procedures for selecting papers and participants. * Special technical or AV needs.
