[TYPES/announce] Graphs as Models, 11-12 April 2015: Call for Tool Demos

[Arend Rensink]

============================================================================
                            Call for Tool Demos
                        GRAPHS AS MODELS (GaM 2015)
                       First International Workshop
                          http://utwente.nl/gam2015/
          Satellite Event of ETAPS 2015, London -- 11-12 April 2015
============================================================================


=== Description ===

     Graphs are used as models in all areas of computer science. A key 
aspect in
the adoption of graphs as models is the existence of proper tooling to 
support
their manipulation in practice. The new Graphs as Models (GaM) workshop
combines the strengths of two pre-existing workshop series: GT-VMT (Graph
Transformation and Visual Modelling Techniques) and GRAPHITE (Graph 
Inspection
and Traversal Engineering), but also solicits research from other areas.


=== Submissions ===

The workshop now seeks submissions of tool demos proposals. These proposals
will not be filtered by reviews, unless selection turns out to be needed. We
will try to accommodate as many demos as possible in the Tool Demos session
planned for Saturday (11/April).

If you have a tool that is based on or makes use of graphs, we want to hear
from you! This is great opportunity to advertise your tool to a large,
engaged audience of graph practitioners.

The proposals should be submitted through EasyChair at:

       https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gam2015

When submitting, please select the category 'Tool demo'. You will be 
asked to
supply the tool title and a brief summary of what you plan to show in 
your demo.


=== Important Dates ===

   - Deadline for tool demos submission: 31 March 2015
   - Workshop: 11-12 April 2015


=== Workshop Format ===

GaM is a one and a half-day workshop programmed as a mixture of:

   - Submitted paper presentations.
   - Fully interactive sessions, such as:
     . Community challenges:
         In-depth discussions about unresolved, graph-related problems.
     . Discussion groups:
         Brainstorm discussions on a chosen  topic concerning the use of 
graphs
         as models.
     . Tool Demos:
         Presentation of tool demos to convince the audience that they 
really
         need the functionality a graph-based tool offers.

For the tentative workshop schedule, see
