Following the tradition of previous conferences, EDOC 2014 plans to host

a number of workshops alongside the main conference. The workshops will

provide a collaborative forum for a group of typically 15 to 30

participants 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 are intended as a

forum for lively discussion of innovative ideas, recent progress, or

practical approaches and applications. Each workshop should provide a

balanced distribution of its time for both presentation of papers and

discussions. We encourage prospective workshop organizers to submit

proposals for highly-interactive workshops focusing on areas related to

enterprise computing in general. Both research-oriented and applied

topics are welcome.
