About FAS* Workshops and Tutorials

=============================

 

FAS* 2019, to be held in the vibrant Umea, the fastest growing city in
Sweden, is soliciting proposals for workshops and tutorials to be co-located
with its main conferences, the 16th International Conference on Autonomic
Computing (ICAC 2019) and the 13th International Conference on Self-Adaptive
and Self-Organizing Systems (SASO 2019). FAS* workshops will provide a
meeting for presenting novel ideas in a less formal and possibly more
focused way than the conferences themselves. Their aim is to stimulate and
facilitate active exchange, interaction, and comparison of approaches,
methods, and ideas. To motivate the discussion and participation of all the
workshop attendants, we encourage organizers to get away of the typical
"mini-conference" format of a workshop, and include more discussion
sessions, panels, etc. 

 

The workshops/tutorials should be on original and timely topics of relevance
to the ICAC and/or SASO communities. 

 

We seek proposals from individuals and teams interested in organizing strong
workshops and tutorials. Ideally each workshop/tutorial should be a full or
half-day. We will interact with workshop organisers in due time to define
the schedule of the sessions and coffee breaks as well as room logistics.
Please submit your workshop/tutorial proposals as soon as possible. We will
try to decide earlier on workshop/tutorial acceptance in order to give the
organizers more time to solicit papers.

 

=============================

Requirements for Submission

=============================

 

Proposals for workshops should be organized as preliminary call for papers
or call for participation, depending on the intended format of the workshop,
with a maximum of two pages and contain the following information:

 

+ Title of the workshop/tutorial.

+ A brief technical description of the workshop/tutorial, specifying the
workshop/tutorial goals, the technical issues that it will address, and the
relevance of the workshop/tutorial to the main conferences. Please specify,
if the workshop is relevant to the ICAC, SASO or both communities.

+ The names, affiliations, postal addresses, phone numbers, and email
addresses of the proposed workshop/tutorial organizing committee. We
strongly encourage the organizing  committee to consists of at least two
people coming from multiple institutions knowledgeable about the technical
issues to be addressed.

+ The primary email address for contacting the organizing committee.

+ Expected duration of the workshop/tutorial (half or full day).

+ A brief description of the workshop/tutorial format.

 

For workshops only:

+ The workshop deadlines, both internal and external, aligned with the
guidelines provided as follows.

+ Description of paper review process and acceptance standards in order to
keep the workshop high in quality. Accepted workshop papers will be
published in the proceedings and submitted for inclusion to IEEE Xplore
(final agreement with IEEE pending but expected). Papers must thus be in the
same format as the conference proceedings and may not be more than 6 pages
in length. Workshop organisers must ensure that suitable quality measures
have been taken. All papers must be reviewed by an International Technical
Program Committee with a minimum of 3 reviews per paper.

+ List of potential program committee members, including their title and
affiliations.

+ List of potential invited speakers, panellists, or disputants.

 

Additionally, the organisers should give further information in the
proposal, not suitable for a Call for Papers, including:

 

+ Information about previous offerings of the proposed workshop/tutorial:
when and where it has been offered in the past, organizers names and
affiliations, number of submissions, acceptances and registered attendees.

+ An expected number of submissions, accepted papers, and attendees (if
applicable).

 

Workshop proposals should be sent as simple ASCII text or pdf via email to
<fas2019.workshops at gmail.com <mailto:fas2019.workshops at gmail.com> > 

 

====================================================

Responsibilities of FAS* 2019 Workshop and Tutorial Organizers

workshop/tutorial. The call must make it clear that at least one author of
each accepted submission must register and present the paper (for
workshops).

+ Provide a brief description of the workshop/tutorial for the conference
web page and program.

+ Advertise the workshop/tutorial (and the main FAS* event) and issuing a
call for papers and a call for participation.

+ Write an organizers’ introduction for the workshop/an abstract of the
tutorial.

+ Ensure that the workshop/tutorial organizers and the participants register
for the workshop/tutorial and/or the main conference (at least one author

possible deadlines):

 

Workshop paper submission deadline: March 15, 2019 (strict)

In addition, workshop organizers will be responsible for the following:

additional extra paid pages may be possible subject to the approval by the
proceedings chair.

+ Assist in producing a camera-ready version of the workshop proceedings.

 

Important Notes:

+ FAS* reserves the right to cancel any workshop/tutorial if the above
responsibilities are not fulfilled, or if too few attendees register for the
workshop to support its running costs.

+ Workshops are not automatically endorsed by IEEE or ACM and should not use
the names of these organisation in their titles.

 

Please, check for further information on the ICAC/SASO websites.
