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. ____ Dates ____ Proposal submission 31 March 2008 Acceptance notification 16 April 2008 Workshop CfP and web page 1 May 2008 Publication of accepted papers 16 July 2008 Workshop working notes 23 August 2008 Workshops 14-15 Sept. 2008 ____ Proposal submissions ____ Proposals for workshops should contain the following information: - The title and a brief technical description of the workshop, specifying the goals and the technical issues it will focus on. - A brief discussion of why and to whom the workshop is of interest. - A list of tentatively confirmed attendees, if available. - A list of related workshops held within the last three years, if any, and their relation to the proposed workshop. - A list of workshops previously arranged by members of the proposed organising committee, if any. - The names of the proposed organising committee.
