ICALP 2010 Second Call for Workshop Proposals
=============================================

ICALP 2010 37th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming

5-11 July 2010, Bordeaux, France
Supported by the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS)

http://icalp10.inria.fr/

The 37th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, the main 
conference and annual meeting of the European Association for Theoretical Computer 
Science (EATCS), will take place from 5-11 July 2010 in Bordeaux, France. The main 
conference will be preceded and followed by a series of Workshops. The workshops 
will take place on Monday 5 July 2010, and on Sunday 11 July 2010 (i.e., one day 
before and one day after ICALP).

Workshop proposals are invited for workshops 

***** !!! TO BE HELD ON SUNDAY 11 JULY 2010 ONLY !!! ******

on topics related to all aspects of theoretical computer science. (A workshop may 
relate to any of the three tracks of ICALP, but also workshop proposals related 
to other aspects of theoretical computer science will be considered.) Typically, 
ICALP workshops feature a number of invited speakers and a number of contributed 
presentations. ICALP workshops do not necessarily produce formal proceedings. However, 
in the past there have been e.g. LNCS proceedings or special issues of journals based 
in part on some ICALP workshops. Workshop proposals should include:

    * Title of the workshop
    * Person responsible for the workshop (name + email address)
    * A short scientific summary and justification of the proposed topic. This should 
      include a discussion of the particular benefits of the topic to the ICALP community.
    * A discussion of the proposed format and agenda.
    * The proposed duration (e.g. half a day or one day). This is important!
      (Please, note again that this 2nd call for workshops only concerns workshops to be
      held on Sunday 11 July 2010.)
    * Procedures for selecting participants and papers.
    * Expected number of participants. This is important!
    * If the workshop has taken place before, please provide the following information:
      - How often has the workshop taken place so far?
      - Which conference(s) has the workshop been collocated with so far?
      - Please provide the web address of the last workshop, if available.
      - How many participants took part in the last workshop?
    * Potential invited speakers.
    * Plans for dissemination (for example, special issues of journals).

Proposals are due on 15 March 2010, and should be submitted electronically to the Workshops 
Chair:
