Workshops are intended to mainly cover research being done within the academic and professional community on new ideas with the focus on new experiences and case studies. All accepted workshop papers will be included as part of the proceedings based on the main conference paper submission regulations and will be subject to the same review policy. However, submission and reviewing of the papers will be managed by the workshops organizers utilizing the conference management system. Workshop proposals should include: · Title of the workshop. · A 500 word summary of the workshop · Full contact details of workshop organizers (maximum three), expected number of paper submissions. · Objectives of the workshop; why it is important and how it is relevant to IIT’15. · A draft Call for paper of the workshop with deadlines and list of TPC members. · If the workshop was conducted before, when and where it was conducted and statistics on the number of attendees and the acceptance ratio. · A short bio of the workshop organizers and past experiences in organizing workshops, seminars, or research meetings. Up to two of each workshop organizers will be granted free IIT’15 registration for one paper each provided that their organized workshop has more than 10 registered papers.
