RAW 2024 - Call for Papers

The 3rd workshop on Resource AWareness of Systems and Society (RAW 2024) 
is going to be held this year in the beautiful city of Maribor, 
Slovenia, and aims at bringing together educators, researchers, and 
engineers from academia and industry to discuss solutions and open 
problems in the area of resource-aware computing. To this end, RAW 2024 
aims at forming a community around resource-aware computing, both for 
classical resource trade-offs, such as energy vs. performance, but also 
incorporating novel concepts, such as development time and effort, 
resilience, or sustainability over product or process life cycles.

The RAW 2024 workshop aims to establish a discussion forum, grounded in 
the formal submission, review, and publication of workshop papers, 
discussing early scientific findings and their application in the area 
of resource-aware computing. We are looking for papers and presentations 
about resource measurement, monitoring, controlling, and the 
multi-objective trade-offs that are applicable in the different domains 
and sectors. We look for experience reports, industrial case studies as 
well as early and preliminary research results that may later appear as 
full papers at focused or multidisciplinary conferences or in journals.

Presentations should refer to techniques involved in resource 
measurement, monitoring, controlling, and trade-offs including the full 
scope of techniques from background theory to the application of 
innovative solutions in different domains. Finally, we welcome all 
aspects of the mentioned techniques such as education, training, 
research innovation, and practice.

We aim to establish and improve interaction and cooperation between 
scientists, researchers, educators, innovators, and practitioners from 
all related sectors and domains that are concerned about the need for 
more aware resource utilization in systems and society in general.

The topics covered by the RAW 2024 Workshop include (but are not limited 
to):

-    resource utilization, e.g., measurement, estimation, optimization
-    resource-aware systems design and implementation, e.g., 
resource-constrained systems, frugal computing, high-performance computing
-    tools supporting resource-aware designs and development, e.g., 
programming languages, virtual machines, code analyzers, development 
environments
-    resource awareness of technologies, tools, and techniques used in 
system development
-    resource-aware economy, e.g., aligning incentives for resource 
awareness, evaluation of resource allocation within facilities, 
organizations, or countries, or cost-benefit trade-offs
-    economy and management in resource awareness, e.g., background 
techniques such as mathematics, statistics, or management; application 
of background techniques for resource-aware computing; application of 
the above to other sectors and domains
-    education and training in all the above topics of interest

Important dates (AOE)

     Abstract Submission: March 25, 2024
     Paper Submission: April 1, 2024
     Author Notification: May 21, 2024
     Camera-Ready Papers: June 1, 2024
     Workshop: July 2-5, 2024

Submission guidelines

RAW 2024 Workshop has three categories of papers:

-    short papers (5-10 pages) for preliminary research results and 
discussion of new ideas
-    full papers (10-12 pages) for new mature results and contributions.
-    Pre-published research: An abstract, title, and original DOI of 
research published elsewhere

Selected and presented short and full papers will be published in 
CEUR-WS proceedings. Pre-published research is expected to be presented 
by one of the original authors at the workshop, but will not be included 
in the CEUR-WS proceedings.

Consequently, authors of short and full papers are expected to submit 
their papers using the 2-column CEUR-WS style. Page numbers (and, if 
possible, line numbers) should appear on the submitted manuscript to 
help the reviewers write their report.

Papers should be submitted via EasyChair: 
https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=raw2024__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!efYfOOLpqvZlhuSZaXLjPOyi5jvaa1J8mOc7OwDgTAAwrBpwwhBaN9T4KHzzlo5bKLKFlxMCl3q75hJby4gyuq9sg5vK-Q$ 

Authors should submit an electronic copy of the paper (written in 
English) in PDF, formatted according to the corresponding style. Each 
submission must include on its first page the paper title; authors and 
their affiliations; contact author’s email; abstract; and three to four 
keywords which will be used to assist the PC in selecting appropriate 
reviewers for the full and short papers.

The RAW 2024 Workshop is intended to be a place for the exchange of, 
both, fresh and mature ideas related to a wide range of aspects of 
Resource Awareness, therefore, we are open to inviting the complete 
research reports along with early and initial results.

Upon the acceptance of the paper by the Program Committee, the authors 
are expected to produce a camera-ready version, by incorporating the 
suggestions of the Program Committee and providing an enclosed revision 
report. The camera-ready paper must be accompanied by a signed author 
agreement and copyright transfer form defined by CEUR-WS guidelines.

We require that at least one author of each accepted paper register for 
the RAW 2024 workshop and will be present at the workshop to present the 
paper.
