=Scope & Goals=
Workshops and tutorials at SEMANTiCS 2023 allow your organisation
or project to advance and promote your topics and gain increased
visibility. The workshops and tutorials will be announced on the
SEMANTiCS website and they will be seen by all participants.
SEMANTiCS 2023 workshops and tutorials can be incubators for
industrial and scientific communities that form and share a
particular research and development agenda. They provide a forum
for presenting contributions and findings to a diverse and
knowledgeable community.
Furthermore, the event can be used as a dissemination activity in
the scope of large research projects or as a closed format for
research/commercial project consortia meetings.
=Setup and Requirements=
SEMANTiCS 2023 workshops and tutorials may be either half or full
day long. Workshops and tutorials take place on the days before
and/or after the main SEMANTiCS 2023 EU conference (20th, 21st,
and/or 22nd of September 2023). Details will be communicated on
time.
Organizers of workshops and tutorials will be granted three free
tickets (only for the workshop & tutorial day) for
organization purposes or keynotes. Participants of workshops and
tutorials will be charged a marginal fee to cover the basic costs.
Workshop and tutorials proposals must include the following
information:
* outline of the themes and goals of the event, including a title
and a brief abstract (less than 200 words) intended for the
SEMANTiCS 2023 website
* a statement addressing why the event is important, why the event
is timely, how it is relevant to SEMANTiCS 2023 and the field of
semantic web. For the tutorials, why the presenters are qualified
for a high-quality introduction of the topic
* related workshops and conferences, i.e., specifying if this is a
continuation of a workshop series or is a new workshop to address
an emerging issue. Please provide information about past versions
of this workshop and other related workshops (including URLs and
submission/acceptance counts, if available).
* a statement addressing the quality assurance criterion that will
be used by the event organizers to select the papers for the
workshops and the presenters for the tutorials (e.g., peer review
or review/evaluation by event organizers). If a peer review
process is chosen as a quality assurance criterion for the
workshops, the organizers will be responsible for their own
reviewing process. Workshop organizers will be responsible also
for their own publicity (e.g., website, timelines and call for
papers) and proceedings production.
* structure of the event and plans for generating and stimulating
discussion; how will the interaction be organized in case of a
hybrid event
* desired minimum and maximum number of event participants,
expected number of participants, and (in case of previously held
events) number of registered attendees and web site for previous
editions of the event
* a description of the intended audience and the expected learning
outcomes
* desired prerequisite knowledge of the audience
* proposed duration of the event (i.e., half or full day),
different sessions if applicable (final time slot will be assigned
in accordance with the SEMANTiCS program)
* any equipment, room capacity, or other logistic constraints
* full contact information of all organizers of the event and main
contact person; a brief description of each organizer's
background, including relevant past experience in organizing
events
