***** CAISE 2013 *****
25th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems
Engineering
June 17-21 2013, Valencia, Spain
CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS
==========================================================================
CAiSE’13 invites proposals for tutorials in technical areas
of Information Systems engineering. These mini-tutorials will be
90 minutes long and should aim at offering new insights,
knowledge, and skills to managers, teachers, researchers, and
students seeking to gain a better understanding of the
state-of-the-art in Information Systems engineering. They are a
good way to get a broad overview of multiple topics in a single
day.
Tutorials are intended to provide independent instruction on
a topic of relevance. Therefore, no commercial or sales-oriented
presentations will be accepted. Potential presenters should keep
in mind that there may be quite a varied audience, including
novice graduate students, seasoned practitioners, and
specialized researchers. Tutorial speakers should be prepared to
cope with this diversity.
Tutorials will be organized in parallel with the technical
sessions of the main conference and participants of the
conference will have free access to all them.
Tutorial proposals should be submitted to both Tutorial
Chairs. Prior contact with the tutorial chairs is encouraged.
The tutorial committee will review each proposal and will select
quality proposals that fit the criteria mentioned above. Each
tutorial proposal will be evaluated on its anticipated benefit
for prospective participants and its fit within the tutorial
program as a whole. Factors to be considered also include:
relevance, timeliness, importance, and audience appeal;
effectiveness of teaching methods; and past experience and
qualifications of the instructors.

• 14th December 2013 : Deadline for submission of
