PODC 2007 -- Call for Workshops

The 26th Annual ACM SIGACT-SIGOPS Symposium on Principles of Distributed
Computing (PODC 2007), which will be held in Portland, Oregon between
August 12-15 2007, invites proposals for workshops on topics closely
related to the scope of the conference, i.e. concerning the theory,
design, specification or implementation of distributed systems. 

Workshops will be held in conjunction with PODC on the days immediately
preceding and after the conference program (August 11th and August
16th). Interested members of the community are invited to send proposals
for workshops by email to the workshop chairs. Alternatively, they can
discuss proposed workshops in person at the upcoming PODC 2006 in
Denver.

The following are required in a workshop proposal:

-  Title of the workshop.

-  An abstract describing the main focus of the workshop,
   and why it would be of interest to the PODC community.

-  Names and contact information of the organizers.

-  Estimated number of papers, duration of the workshop, and a
   brief description of the review process.

PODC will provide organizational and administrative support for the
workshops. 

The proposals should be submitted to the workshop chairs as soon as
possible, but no later than September 15, 2006. Notification of
acceptance will be sent shortly after the deadline.
