Call for Workshop Proposals

Proposals are solicited for workshops to be held in conjunction with iThings
2011.
The purpose of these workshops is to provide vibrant opportunities for
researchers
and industry practitioners to share their research experience, original
research results
and practical development experiences on specific new challenges and
emerging issues
at the forefront of Internet of Things.

The organizers of the workshop shall have responsibility of the call for
papers,
forming program committee, review and selection of papers as well as
planning the
workshop program. The registration fee for workshops will be determined by
the conference
(not the workshop itself). The fees will be paid to the conference, and the
conference
will provide workshop facilities including the working notes printing, the
meeting room,
coffee break, lunch, proceedings and etc.

Proceedings of iThings 2011 workshops will be published by IEEE Computer
Society (EI indexed).
Selected best papers from iThings 2011 workshops will be recommended for
publication
in special issues of several SCI-indexed international journals (check the
Special
Issues webpage for details).

The workshops with more than 15 accepted papers will be granted with a free
complimentary
registration for the leading workshop organizer.

PROPOSAL SUBMISSION

Prospective workshop organizers should send a proposal containing the
following information
to iThings 2011 Workshop Chairs:

- Title of the workshop (Full name and Abbreviation)
- Objectives, scope, and contribution to the main conference (up to 1 page)
- Short bio of the key organizers and their experience on
conference/workshop organization
- Procedure for selecting papers, plans for dissemination (for example, how
to advertise
  and special issues of journals), and the expected number of participants
- A tentative list of program committee members (if available)
- A tentative website address

Each workshop should identify one organizer as the point of contact. A brief
advertisement
plan should be included in the proposal. Approved workshops should follow
the important dates,
particularly the paper status notification and camera-ready dates. The
submission deadline
could be later than that of the main conference. But a workshop should have
sufficient time,
say 4-6 weeks, for generating peer reviews. Generally, each paper should
receive 3 peer reviews.
Proposals should be sent via email to all workshops chairs. Enquiries can
also be sent to
any one of the workshops chairs.
