Call for Workshop Proposals
Petri Nets 2020, Paris, France
=================================
The 41st International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and
Concurrency (Petri Nets 2020) will take place in Paris, France (as usual in the
full last week of June, i.e. 22-26 June 2020). For this major event, we are now
inviting people to submit proposals for workshops.
The purpose of the workshops is to provide a setting for participants to
discuss scientific work, technical issues, exchange research ideas, and to
demonstrate applications and software tools. The workshops may be driven by
fundamental academic interests or by needs from specific current or emerging
application domains.
We encourage a diversity of workshops relating to Petri nets or other models of
concurrency. Proceedings from the workshop will be published in the CEUR
workshop proceedings series and selected best papers from the workshop will be
published in a special volume of the TopNoC LNCS subseries.
All workshop proposals must be written in English.
Proposals for workshops should be no more than 3 pages in length and submitted
to the workshop (W&T) chairs before June 21, 2019 (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 theme 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. Moreover, a tentative
list of workshop PC members (reasonable size) should be given.
- if there is some poster session, or tool demonstration session, this should
be stated clearly in the proposal so that the organizer can check if this can
be scheduled.
We suggest one or two PC chairs and a reasonable number of PC members from
different countries that reflects the expected number of submissions.
Moreover, the following additional information is requested:
- A list of related workshops or similar events to be held in the same year or
which has been held 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 collocated with so far?
-- Number of participants in the last installment.
- An evaluation of the number of participants (if there were previous editions,
please remind the number of participants for these editions)
- A discussion of the proposed format and agenda.
- The proposed duration (half, one or two days).
- Procedures for selecting papers.
- Potential invited speakers. Remember that this is not included in the main
conference budget (see the PN organization rules for more details)
- Expected audience and number of participants.
- A description of the qualifications 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 pages 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.
The local organization of the Petri net conference will take care of the
production of CEUR workshop proceedings.
After the conference, we will invite a number of the best workshop papers to
contribute to a Joint Post-proceedings, to be published in "Transactions on
Petri Nets and Other Models of Concurrency" (ToPNoC), a subseries of Lecture
Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). That is, 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. The W&T chairs of the conference will
be responsible for liaison with the publisher, organising the additional round
of reviewing and the final selection. The workshop chairs will play an
important role in suggesting papers and the final selection.
