==================================
ICALP 2021 Call for Workshops
==================================
*** We are closely monitoring the development of the COVID-19 pandemic. If it is not viable to hold ICALP 2021 as a physical conference, we will run it virtually on the same dates. We will decide in January 2021 at the latest. If ICALP 2021 can go ahead as a physical conference, accepted authors may still present remotely. ***

ICALP 2021 (http://easyconferences.eu/icalp2021/ <http://easyconferences.eu/icalp2021/>) will take place on the 13th - 16th of July 2021 in Glasgow, United Kingdom. The conference will be preceded by one day of workshops, held on July 12th. We invite proposals for workshops affiliated with ICALP 2021 on all topics covered by ICALP, as well as other areas of theoretical computer science.

Proposals should be submitted no later than
  
  ***  November 30th, 2020 ***

by sending an email to the workshop selection committee (details at the end of the call). You should expect notification on the acceptance of your proposal by mid December 2020.

A workshop proposal submission should consist of:

 - workshop's name and URL (if already available)

 - workshop's organisers together with their email addresses and web pages;
 
 - short description of the area covered by the workshop and the motivation behind it;

 - expected number of participants (if available, please include the data of previous years);

 - planned format of the event;
 
 - date preference (July 10th or 11th).

As for the format, a standard option is a full one-day workshop consisting of invited talks by leading experts and of shorter contributed talks, either directly invited by the organisers or selected among submissions. Deviations from this standard are also warmly welcome, including a shorter or a longer time span than a full day, or other elements of the schedule like open problem sessions, discussion panels, or working sessions. 

If you plan to have invited speakers, please specify their expected number and, if possible, tentative names. If you plan a call for papers or for contributed talks followed by a selection procedure, the submission date should be scheduled after ICALP 2021 notification (April 28, 2021), while the notification should take place before the early registration deadline. In your submission please include details on the schedule, planned procedure of selecting papers and/or contributed talks. If you plan to have published proceedings of your workshop, please provide the name of the publisher. Please be advised that ICALP 2021 is not able to provide any financial support for publishing workshop proceedings.
