Call for Workshop Proposals

The Eurographics 2016 Workshop Committee invites active members of the community to submit proposals for Workshops to be held at the Eurographics 2016 Conference. Accepted workshops will take place during the weekend before the main conference (May 7-8).

The workshops should focus on topics relevant to the Eurographics researchers and offer a forum for discussions and interactions among participants. They should differ from the main topics covered in the conference yet attract fellow members of the community.

Submission Details

The Workshop proposal should not exceed 5 pages (including CFP) and should include the following details:

• Title
• Abstract
• Relevance and significance of this workshop to the main conference
• A short history of the workshop, if not being offered for the first time
• Length: Full day or half day
• Short bio of the workshop organizers (who should be experts in the related topics and preferably from multiple institutions)
• Estimated paper submission volume and paper acceptance rate
• Expected attendance
• A draft workshop call for papers with:
  • Names, affiliations, addresses and email addresses of the workshop organizers
  • A list of potential Program Committee members and their affiliations

Workshop proposal submissions should be sent to chairs-eg2016workshops@eg.org

Review

Workshop proposals will be reviewed by EG2016 Workshop Chairs based on three criteria:

1. the likely interest of the workshop to EG attendees
2. the breadth and depth of the topic
3. the expertise and credential of the organizer(s)

Important Dates

• Proposal Submission Deadline: September 15, 2015
• Notification of Acceptance: September 30, 2015
• Workshop Days: May 7-8, 2016

For accepted workshops: Note that each accepted workshop should be responsible for deciding their own submission and review timeline, publicizing the workshop and compile the program. However, notification and camera-ready deadline are enforced by the publisher and cannot be changed. Thus, the deadline for Chairs to make sure that all materials from their workshops are delivered to Proceedings Chairs in the camera-ready format is March 30, 2016.
