IEEE MDM 2023: Call for Workshop Proposals

Several workshops will be held together with the IEEE MDM 2023 conference. Workshops are planned to take place on July 3, 2023, the day before the main conference, each of them running anywhere between half a day and a full day.

The logistics of the workshops will be handled by the MDM 2023 organization. Specifically, MDM 2023 will take care of facilities, catering, and the registration process pertinent to all hosted workshops.

The organizers of accepted workshops are required to announce the workshop and call for papers, solicit submissions, invite and coordinate with PC members to ensure that controversial submissions are resolved, and decide upon the final workshop program that must be published at least two weeks before the early registration deadline. The submission deadline of the workshops must be set 1-2 weeks after the notification date of the main conference. In addition, each workshop must collaborate with the Proceedings Chair for the purpose of ensuring timely completion of the camera-ready copies before April 28, 2023 (TBC), when official conference proceedings are due. A workshop paper is allowed up to 6 proceedings pages.

Publication of call-for-papers and participation as well as eventual workshop reports in various outlets are encouraged.

Proposal evaluation criteria include the following: relevance to MDM, scientific quality, perceived interest and past performance (e.g., previous submission counts and/or workshop participants), and overlap with other proposals.

The deadline for the receipt of proposals to be co-located with MDM 2023 is: December 9, 2022.

Notification of acceptance will occur by: December 23, 2022.
