  The 16th eScience Conference (eScience 2020) will be held in
Osaka, Japan from September 8 - 11, 2020. The eScience 2020
conference promotes innovation in collaborative research and
education across all disciplines, throughout the research
lifecycle.

  The eScience conference has a long history of hosting a wide
range of well-attended workshops broadly related to
eScience. These workshops play a crucial role in the conference by
providing opportunity for researchers to present their work and to
have in-depth discussions of particular topics of interest to the
community.

  eScience 2020 welcomes proposals for workshops to be held with
the main conference on September 8, 2020.

  Workshop organizers are responsible for establishing their own
program committee, paper submission system, collecting and
evaluating submissions, notifying authors of acceptance or
rejection in due time, ensuring a transparent and fair selection
process, organizing selected papers into sessions, and assigning
session chairs. Proposals that show clear focus and objectives in
areas of emerging or developing interest guaranteed to generate
significant interest in the community will be prioritized.

  The proceedings of the workshops will be included in the
eScience 2020 proceedings. As such, workshop organizers must
follow the publication timeline of the main conference. For each
paper selected for publication, at least one of the authors must
be registered for eScience 2020 to present the paper in person.
