=Scope & Goals=
Workshops and tutorials at SEMANTiCS 2024 allow your organisation or
project to advance and promote your topics and gain increased
visibility. The workshops and tutorials will be announced on the
SEMANTiCS website and they will be seen by all participants. SEMANTiCS
2024 workshops and tutorials can be incubators for industrial and
scientific communities that form and share a particular research and
development agenda and they will provide a forum for presenting
contributions and findings to a diverse and knowledgeable community.
Furthermore, the event can be used as a dissemination activity in the
scope of large research projects or as a closed format for
research/commercial project consortia meetings.
=Proceedings=
For the proceedings, we offer two options:
Option A: In case you want to maintain an already existing series or
want to have one of your own, please organize the proceedings yourself.
Option B: In case you do not have enough contributions/page volume to
create proceedings of your own, we offer to publish your papers as part
of the SEMANTiCS side event proceedings. Side events proceedings will
include posters & demos and (optional) contributions from workshops.
In case you want to make use of Option B, please get in touch with the
workshop & tutorial chairs or drop us a note via Easychair.
=Setup and Requirements=
SEMANTiCS 2024 workshops and tutorials may be either half or full day
long. Workshops and tutorials take place on the days before and/or after
the main SEMANTiCS 2024 EU conference (17th of September 2024). Further
details will be communicated in due time.
Organizers of workshops and tutorials will be granted three free tickets
(only for the workshop & tutorial day) for organization purposes or
keynotes. Participants of workshops and tutorials will only be charged a
reduced fee to cover the basic costs.
Workshop and tutorial proposals must include the following information:
* outline of the themes and goals of the event, including a title and a
brief abstract (less than 200 words) intended for the SEMANTiCS 2024
website.
* a statement addressing why the event is important, why the event is
timely, and how it is relevant to SEMANTiCS 2024 and the field of
Semantic Web. For the tutorials, why the presenters are qualified for a
high-quality introduction of the topic.
* related workshops and conferences, i.e., specifying if this is a
continuation of a workshop series or a new workshop. Please provide
information about past versions (in any) and other related workshops
(including URLs and submission/acceptance counts, if available).
* a statement addressing the quality assurance criteria that will be
used by the event organizers to select the papers for the workshops and
the presenters for the tutorials (e.g., peer review or review/evaluation
by event organizers). If a peer review process is chosen as a quality
assurance criterion for the workshops, the organizers will be
responsible for their own reviewing process. Workshop organizers will be
responsible also for their own publicity (e.g., website, timelines and
call for papers) and proceedings production.
* structure of the event and plans for generating and stimulating
discussion; how will the interaction be organized in case of a hybrid event.
* expected number of event participants and (in case of previously held
events) number of registered attendees and website for previous editions
of the event.
