[DMANET] Conference on Games 2020: Last call for Special Sessions

[Apologies for cross-posting]

The 2020 IEEE Conference on Games <http://ieee-cog.org/> (CoG) will be
held in Osaka, Japan, on August 24-27 2020, and is looking for special
sessions.

A special session addresses one or more topic areas within games
research and is intended to bring together researchers working on those
topics to provide an excellent session at the IEEE Conference on Games.
Please read the call for papers <http://ieee-cog.org/cfp> for CoG 2020
and its list of topics <http://ieee-cog.org/topics> before submitting
your special session proposal.

A special session proposal should not be more than two pages, not
including the brief biographies of the proposers and the draft call for
papers. Deadline: *January 14, 2020*

Please include the following information with your proposal:

* *Title* - the title of the proposal
* *Description* - a description of the topic of the session and its
place in games research.
* *Example topics* – a bullet list of topics that the session might cover.
* *Justification* – a brief explanation making the case that the
special session belongs in the conference. An estimate of the number
of submissions should be included.
* *Sponsors* – a list of researchers proposing the session. At least
one must be an IEEE member and all sponsors are expected to serve as
reviewers for the papers in the special session. If your session is
accepted, you must also provide a list of reviewers sufficient to
your expected submissions.
* *Sponsor Biographies* – each sponsor should include a brief
biography that demonstrates professional excellence and
qualification to review for the special session. The bio should
include a current e-mail address.
* *Draft Call for Papers* – on its own page, a draft call for papers
to be used in advertising the special session. The draft call for
papers should not fill more than one page.


Inquiries and proposals should be sent to Florian Richoux
<mailto:florian.richoux@univ-nantes.fr>(florian.richoux@univ-nantes.fr)
<mailto:florian.richoux@univ-nantes.fr>. Proposals must be in PDF format
and will be approved on a rolling basis (submit now!), reviewed
promptly, and placed on the conference web site, in part to prevent
duplicate submissions. If someone has beaten you to the punch, contact
them and offer to serve as a member of their review panel.

*No applications* would be considered *after**January 14, 2020*.
