We also encourage workshops in emerging areas, including, but not limited to the following:
* smart grids * big data * social network and crowd sourcing * digital cities and public places * e-‐health and web wellbeing * sustainable computing * mobile computing * cloud computing * green computing * online education * intelligent learning environments
A COMPSAC workshop can complement the main COMPSAC conference or provide deeper insight into COMPSAC topics. Workshop proposals should include the following:
* workshop title * workshop organizers' names, affiliations, and email addresses * workshop goal, theme, and topics of interest (i.e., workshop scope) * workshop program committee (PC) member names and affiliations * prospective invited speakers (optional) * expected number of workshop sessions * information about previously organized workshops (if any)
Please use the proposal template to create your proposal and send it to the COMPSAC 2019 workshop chairs at compsac-2019-ws-chairs@ml.nict.go.jpmailto:compsac-2019-ws-chairs@ml.nict.go.jp no later than October 20, 2018.

The responsibilities of the workshop organizers include (i) distributing a Call For Papers on appropriate mailing lists and to relevant research groups, (ii) updating the workshop’s webpage when needed (with the help of the COMPSAC webmaster), (iii) configuring the workshop’s paper submission system (with the help of the COMPSAC General Chair and team), and most importantly (iv) ensuring that the accepted papers are of high quality while striving for an acceptance ratio of less than 70%. -‐-‐‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐ Workshop Paper Handling -‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐ COMPSAC 2019 uses a web-‐based paper review system. Workshops must use the same system for paper review. COMPSAC workshop chairs are responsible for configuring the dedicated workshop review system and adding the workshop organizers and PC members to the workshop’s review system. Workshop papers must be processed as follows:
1. Workshop organizers have to maintain list of PC members and templates on the review system before submission is open.
2. Workshop authors submit papers to the corresponding workshop. Workshop papers are limited up to 6 pages (without additional charge). Extra up to 2 pages can be added (with additional charge).
3. Workshop organizers provide COMPSAC workshop chairs with a list of submitted papers (i.e., paper title, author name[s], and author email address [es]).
4. Workshop organizers start the paper reviewing process by assigning papers to PC members. (At least three reviewers should be assigned to each submitted paper.) Each reviewer reports evaluation with detailed comments.
5. Workshop organizers provide a list of accepted and rejected papers (i.e., paper title, author name[s], author email address[es], and a short justification of why the paper has been accepted/rejected) to the COMPSAC workshop chairs.
6. Some main symposia papers, rejected for the main symposia yet refereed as enough quality and worth discussing on the workshop, will be accepted as workshop papers (main-symposium-to-workshop papers). The main-symposium-to-workshop papers are “forwarded” to the relevant workshop. Workshop organizers have to accept all of these forwarded papers (except the case when the author of the paper declines to be accepted as a workshop paper).
7. Authors are notified of accept/reject decisions and IEEE Computer Society Press sends an Author's Kit to the authors of accepted papers.
8. Workshop authors make author registration and send their camera-‐ready papers to the IEEE Computer Society according to an instruction in the Author's Kit.
9. The IEEE Computer Society publishes the papers as conference proceedings.
10. Workshop organizers send a workshop program (i.e., timetable, session names, session chairs, paper titles, and name[s] of author[s]) to the COMPSAC workshop chairs. Such information will be included in the final COMPSAC Program. Workshop organizers also send a Message from Workshop organizers to the COMPSAC workshop chairs.
11. Each accepted paper is allocated a time slot to present during the workshop sessions. Registering for and presenting the paper in the workshop is obligatory for inclusion in the workshop proceedings. Presented papers will be included in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Workshop organizers have to report to the COMPSAC workshop chairs whether all papers in the workshop sessions have been presented or not. -‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐-‐ COMPSAC 2019 Workshops Chairs
