ICFCA 2021
16th International Conference on Formal Concept Analysis
June 29 -- July 2, 2021, Strasbourg, France

Mail: icfca2021@sciencesconf.org
================================================================================
* Call for Workshops and Tutorials
The ICFCA'21 Organizing Committee invites proposals for
workshops/tutorials to be held on the first day of the conference *(June
29, 2021)*, which will take place in Strasbourg, France. We invite
proposals for both *full- and half-day workshops/tutorial* in current
and emerging topics in (or related to) Formal Concept Analysis. Starting
from ICFCA'2017 the workshop and tutorials provide an opportunity to
discuss novel topics in an interactive atmosphere. They can concentrate
in-depth on research topics, but can also be devoted to application issues.
* Duration & format
We welcome both full- and half-day workshop/tutorial proposals. We would
like to encourage proposers to aim for a program that is both varied and
interesting. For workshops, especially where the format is concerned, we
would like you to think about ways of going beyond the usual list of
presentations of accepted papers. Another way of extending the usual
format is to include a specific challenge problem that can be addressed
by the workshop participants, with a dedicated challenge session in the
workshop program. Note, however, that the challenge should be only one
of the components of the workshop, targeting a problem which is specific
to the workshop topic(s).
* Combined Tutorial & Workshop
Especially for a relatively novel but rapidly maturing topic, giving an
introduction of the state-of-the-art may go beyond the scope of an
invited presentation. In this case, a half day tutorial followed by a
half day workshop could be a good format.
* Guidelines for proposals
When proposing a workshop or a tutorial, please provide (at least) the
following information:
* A brief description of
* the specific issues that will be addressed,
* the reasons why the workshop/tutorial is of interest in these times,
* the main research areas involved,
* and what the workshop/tutorial will add to the conference (e.g.,
do you expect papers of a theme that would not fit the main conference?).
* For workshops,
* a draft of the Call for Papers, including information on accepted
formats (e.g., regular papers, extended abstracts, oral-only
presentations of relevant recently published or submitted contributions,
etc.)
* and expected format of the workshop (e.g., invited talks,
presentations, poster sessions, panel discussions, challenge sessions,
or other ideas for ensuring an interactive atmosphere).
* In the case of a combined tutorial-workshop, please clearly
indicate the format.
* Any special requirements regarding logistics (e.g., poster stands,
audio equipment), if applicable.
* Submission
For applying or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to
[[mailto:icfca2021@easychair.org][contact the Program Chairs]] (Aleksey
Buzmakov, Tom Hanika). We are looking forward to your proposals .
