The Second ACM PETRA Workshop on Social Robots: A Workshop on the Past, the Present and the Future of Digital Companions http://www.petrae.org/workshops/socialrobots.html 

Social robots not only work with humans in collaborative workspaces but also follow us into much more personal settings like home and health care. Does this imply that social robots should be able to interpret and adequately respond to human emotions? Should they simulate emotions? 

The workshop covers the phenomenon of social robots from the historic roots over today’s best practices to future perspectives. Thus, it is interdisciplinary: we welcome contributions not only from computer scientists, but also researchers from disciplines like psychology, medicine, law, history, and the arts and humanities. 

Deadline: February 25
Publication:  The workshop papers will be part of the PETRA proceedings published in the ACM Digital Library. Authors must follow the guidelines of ACM SigConf template available at https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. Workshop papers must be between 3 to 10 pages long, including references. An important aspect of preparing your paper for publication is to provide the proper indexing and retrieval information from the http://dl.acm.org/ccs/ccs.cfm. Camera-ready information will be emailed to authors with the acceptance notifications. The submission system is available at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=petra2019
