To build a community and to foster an environment where participants can 
exchange ideas and experiences related to practical software 
development, ‹Programming› will host a number of workshops.

A workshop can be intended as a collaborative forum to exchange recent 
and/or preliminary results, to conduct intensive discussions on a particular 
topic, or to coordinate efforts between representatives of a technical 
community. They can also be regarded as a forum for lively discussion of 
innovative ideas, progress, or practical experience on programming and 
applied software development in general for specific aspects, specific 
problems, or domain-specific needs. 

This year, we would like to encourage organizers to be creative and experiment
with all kinds of events including hallways discussions, academic parties 
besides the more traditional workshops. Possible types of workshops include 
a meeting like a Dagstuhl Seminar or Shonan meeting, a gathering for an 
international research project, a tool demo/tutorial, hands-on workshops 
in which participants experience one or several aspects of practical 
software development, social gathering around a particular topic and so on. 
Open meetings are preferable but closed ones could be accepted. We are flexible 
and welcome innovative social gatherings; if you have any ideas or questions, 
please contact the workshops co-chairs.

The duration of workshops is in general one day, but we encourage the 
submission of half-day workshop proposals on focused topics as well.
