ISC 2020 Workshops

PLEASE NOTE: The Call for Workshops is closed!

The ISC Workshops provide attendees with a focused and in-depth platform for presentations, discussions, and interactions on topics related to all aspects of high performance computing.

This year we will host two types of workshops:

  1. Workshops that want to disseminate their own call for papers and implement a peer-review process; Accepted papers will be published in post-conference proceedings.
  2. Workshops without a call for papers and without proceedings;

TERMS & CONDITIONS

  • By submitting a workshop proposal, you agree to organize and host the workshop at ISC 2020 in Frankfurt, Germany
  • Workshop organizers and speakers need to register for an ISC 2020 Workshop Pass. ISC will grant a 100 % discount on one workshop pass to accepted half-day workshops and two workshop passes to accepted full-day workshops.
  • The workshop organizers themselves commit to inform their speakers that they have to register for ISC 2020 Workshops and will not automatically receive a free workshop pass.
  • ISC will provide meeting room facilities and basic technical equipment for the workshops. Workshop organizers/speakers will have to bring their own presentation laptops and adapters.
  • The workshop organizers will have to align their program with the workshop break schedule (morning sessions are from 9:00 am to 11:00 am and 11:30 am to 1:00 pm, afternoon sessions are from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm and 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm, with coffee breaks and lunch in between). Catering during coffee and lunch breaks will be provided to all registered workshop attendees.
  • ISC will promote the workshops as part of the regular conference publicity activities; however, it is recommended that workshop organizers use their own channels to further attract attendees to their events.
  • ISC will not be able to cover travel, accommodation, registration fees and other such costs.
PUBLICATIONS & SLIDES

PUBLICATION

The post-conference Workshop Proceedings will be published with Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS)

We will organize the proceedings in a lightweight fashion. The workshop proceedings (minimum 6 pages, maximum 12 pages per workshop paper, excluding references) will be published after the conference but we will collect preliminary versions of the papers and make them available during the workshop to your workshop attendees. Workshop organizers are also free to organize the publication of paper proceedings on their own.

PRESENTATION SLIDES FOR ATTENDEES

ISC will make the presentation slides available online a week after the event, provided as PDF files. ISC 2020 attendees will receive an e-mail with the access link.
