<p>The organizers of the <i>23rd International ACM Symposium on
High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing</i>
(HPDC'14) <strong>call for proposals for workshops</strong> to be
held with HPDC'14. The workshops will be held on June 23-27, 2014.</p>
<p>Workshops should provide forums for discussion among researchers
and practitioners on focused topics or emerging research areas
relevant to the HPDC community. Organizers may structure workshops
as they see fit, including invited talks, panel discussions,
presentations of work in progress, fully peer-reviewed papers, or
some combination. Workshops could be scheduled for half a day or a
full day, depending on interest, space constraints, and organizer
preference. Organizers should design workshops for approximately
20-40 participants, to balance impact and effective discussion.</p>
<p><strong>Workshop proposal</strong> will be uploaded in PDF format
to the <a href="https://ssl.linklings.net/conferences/hpdc/">
submission site</a> by the deadline, and should include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>The name and acronym of the workshop</li>
<li>A description (0.5-1 page) of the theme of the workshop</li>
<li>A description (one paragraph) of the relation between the
theme of the workshop and of HPDC</li>
<li>A list of topics of interest</li>
<li>The names and affiliations of the workshop organizers, and if
applicable, of a significant portion of the program committee</li>
<li>A description of the expected structure of the workshop
(papers, invited talks, panel discussions, etc.)</li>
<li>Data about previous offerings of the workshop (if any),
including the attendance, the numbers of papers or presentations
submitted and accepted, and the links to the corresponding
websites</li>
<li>A publicity plan for attracting submissions and attendees.
Please also include expected number of submissions, accepted
papers, and attendees that you anticipate for a successful
workshop.</li>
</ul>
<p>Due to publication deadlines, workshops must operate within
roughly the following timeline: papers due mid February (2-3 weeks
after the HPDC deadline), and selected and sent to the publisher
by mid April.</p>
