SIGMOD 2010 - Call for Workshop Proposals

SIGMOD 2010 - Call for Workshop Proposals Several workshops are expected to be co-located with SIGMOD/PODS, either sponsored or co-sponsored by SIGMOD, or held in cooperation with SIGMOD. The deadline for the receipt of proposals for workshops is Thursday, November 12. All workshops will take place before the SIGMOD conference. In particular, most or all workshops will be held on Sunday, June 6. At most two workshops may be held on Monday, June 7. Workshops that run for anywhere between half a day and a full day are possible. The organizers of accepted workshops are required to announce the workshop and call for papers, solicit submissions, conduct the reviewing process, and decide upon the final workshop program. The logistics of the workshops will be done with the help from the SIGMOD 2010 organization. Further inquiries should be sent to the SIGMOD 2010 Workshops Chair: Christian S. Jensen (csj [at] cs.aau.dk) SIGMOD Vice-Chair Submission Guidelines * Proposals must be submitted by email to csj at cs.aau.dk and must take into account this information: http://www.sigmod.org/sigmodinfo/sponsorship.html (for sponsored or co-sponsored workshops) or this information: http://www.acm.org/sigmod/sigmodinfo/incoop.html (for workshops held in cooperation with SIGMOD). * Having a draft website for the workshop available at submission time is encouraged. * A written agreement of the copyrights holder of the workshop proceedings (e.g., ACM Press, Springer Verlag) that allows the workshop proceedings to appear in SIGMOD DISC is required. Depending on the publisher involved, the time needed to obtain this permission may vary. * Another item required by ACM for in-cooperation conferences is proof of liability insurance, which can also require considerable lead time to obtain.
