======================================
ICALP 2011 Call for Workshop Proposals
======================================

ICALP 2011 38th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and
Programming

July 4-8, 2011, Zurich, Switzerland Supported by the European
Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS)

http://icalp11.inf.ethz.ch/

The 38th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and
Programming, the main conference and annual meeting of the European
Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS), will take place
from the 4th to the 8th of July 2011 at ETH Zurich, Switzerland.

The main conference will be preceded by a series of Workshops, taking
place on Sunday, July 3rd, 2011 (i.e., one day before ICALP).

Workshop proposals are invited for workshops on topics related to all
aspects of theoretical computer science. (A workshop may relate to any
of the three tracks of ICALP, but also workshop proposals related to
other aspects of theoretical computer science will be considered.)
Typically, ICALP workshops feature a number of invited speakers and a
number of contributed presentations. ICALP workshops do not
necessarily produce formal proceedings. However, in the past there
have been, e.g., LNCS proceedings or special issues of journals based
in part on some ICALP workshops. Workshop proposals should include:

* Title of the workshop

* Person responsible for the workshop (name + email address)

* A short scientific summary and justification of the proposed
topic. This should include a discussion of the particular benefits
of the topic to the ICALP community.

* A discussion of the proposed format and agenda.

* The proposed duration (how many hours of program)

* Procedures for selecting participants and papers.

* Expected number of participants.

* If the workshop has taken place before, please provide the
following information:

- How often has the workshop taken place so far?
- Which conference(s) has the workshop been collocated with so far?
- Please provide the web address of the last workshop, if available.
- How many participants took part in the last workshop?

* Potential invited speakers.

* Plans for dissemination (for example, special issues of journals).

Proposals are due November 4, 2010, and should be submitted
electronically to the Conference Chairs via <icalp11@inf.ethz.ch>.
Notifications will be sent by November 30, 2010.
