CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS // DEADLINE EXTENSION

HOW TO SUBMIT A WORKSHOP PROPOSAL
*********************************

Scope
-----
ACM Multimedia Workshops should address clearly focused topics. These topics may lie in the research fields pertinent to the main conference - often dedicated to an "arising" focus area - or bridge ACM MM topics with other areas like, for instance, E-Learning.

Workshop Format and Date
------------------------
Half-day and full-day workshops can be accommodated.
The scheduled workshop day for ACM Multimedia 2008 is Friday, October 31, 2008.

Proceedings
-----------
The proceedings will be published *together* with the proceedings of the main conference in electronic format by ACM.


Timeline
--------
Workshop proposals must be submitted by April 27, 2008.
Notification of acceptance will be by May 10, 2008


Organizers can decide on their own deadlines for submission and reviews, but final submission must comply with the overall proceedings rules. In particular,
- papers must be submitted online and peer-reviewed by at least three reviewers
- maximum paper length is 10 pages (a smaller maximum may be prescribed by workshop organizers)
- the general conference deadline for final papers must be met: August 1st.

A *possible* set of deadlines may look like this:
- workshop paper submission deadline:  June   28, 2008
- notification of acceptance:          July   15, 2008
- final papers due:                    August 01, 2008

        - expected number of participants,

          If so, when/where)
