Submission Guidelines for Workshop Proposals

Workshop proposals should be submitted by email to the workshop co-chairs as a PDF attachment. The proposals must meet the above given due date. Please include “ICDE 2019 Workshop” in the subject line. Each workshop proposal must contain all pertinent information, including the following:

  • Workshop title
  • Short description of the topic and format of the workshop
  • Explanation of why the proposed workshop is a good match with ICDE 2019
  • Names and contact information of the workshop organizer(s)
  • Names of members of the program committee (at least 50% must be known and confirmed at the time of the proposal)
  • Special considerations regarding proceedings, if any
  • Important dates (paper submission deadline, notification deadline, etc.)
  • Expected number of participants
  • In case of previous instances of the workshop, the historical numbers of participants
  • In case of previous instances of the workshop, the historical submission and acceptance counts
  • Preferred workshop duration

Evaluation criteria include overall quality and the fit with respect to the expected ICDE 2019 program. Note that proposals are especially encouraged on emerging topics that are relevant to data engineering and are not already covered by the main conference. The decision about acceptance/rejection of workshop proposals will be made by the Workshop Chairs in consultation with the General and Research Program Chairs, taking into account several factors including venue capacity.
