Call for Tutorial Proposals
Diagrams 2018
10th International Conference on the Theory and Application of 
Diagrams
http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2018/
Conference dates: 18th - 22nd June 2018
Location: Edinburgh, UK

Co-located event:
International Conference on Conceptual Structures 2018
http://blogs.napier.ac.uk/iccs/
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Diagrams is an international interdisciplinary conference series, 
covering all aspects of research on the theory and application of 
diagrams.  We invite proposals for half-day or full-day tutorials. 
These tutorials will be held both before and after the main 
conference, on June 18th (Monday) and June 22th (Friday).  They will
take place at the main conference venue, Edinburgh Napier University
in the UK.

Tutorials are expected to address topics that are of interest to the 
Diagrams 2018 conference attendees.  These include, but are not 
limited to, the following:

* applications of diagrams,
* computational models of reasoning with, and interpretation of, 
  diagrams, 
* design of diagrammatic notations,
* diagram understanding by humans or machines,
* diagram aesthetics and layout,
* educational uses of diagrams,
* evaluation of diagrammatic notations,
* graphical communication and literacy,
* heterogeneous notations involving diagrams,
* history of diagrammatic notations,
* information visualization using diagrams,
* nature of diagrams and diagramming,
* novel technologies for diagram use,
* philosophy of diagrams (see the Philosophy of Diagrams special
  call),
* psychological issues pertaining to diagrams (see the Psychology 
  of Diagrams special call),
* reasoning with diagrams,
* semiotics of diagrams,
* software to support the use of diagrams, and
* usability and human-computer interaction issues concerning
  diagrams.

Tutorials differ from workshops in that they do not solicit
contributions from attendees.  However, attendees have previously
particularly enjoyed tutorials that are interactive and spark
debate.  

Examples of previous tutorials may provide some inspiration and 
guidance and can be found at:
