Workshops

We are soliciting proposals for workshops to be held together with the CDC 2025. The purpose of the workshops is to provide a comprehensive forum on topics that will not be fully explored during the main conference and to encourage in-depth discussions on technical, application, and community issues. Due to space and time limitations, as well as to promote diversity of topic coverage, we will only be able to retain a limited number of proposals. Therefore, we encourage the workshop organizers to submit proposals that are specific and detailed in justifying relevance, viability, and uniqueness. Workshops that are substantially similar to each other in content may be asked to merge, and the CDC OpCom reserves the right to accept/reject the workshop proposals and to cancel nonviable workshops after registration.

In addition, we strongly encourage and will give special consideration during the review process to workshops aiming to create a forum where we broadly reach out to elicit the best scholarship, innovation, and breadth of ideas that our community has to offer. Therefore, workshop proposals should include a statement explaining the diversity of the session along dimensions such as gender, geography, industry/academia affiliation, and/or other forms of diversity.

A workshop proposal should include:
 

1. Title of the workshop
2. Objectives and expected outcomes
3. List of organizers along with their short bio and contact details
4. List of speakers along with their short bio
5. Schedule with (tentative) titles of the presentations and with the indication whether the workshop is full day or half-day
6. Statement explaining the diversity of the session in terms of gender, geography, industry/academia affiliation, and/or other forms of diversity

The workshops will be in-person only, and no online connection will be used during the workshops.

Questions can be directed to the workshop chair, Maria Prandini (maria.prandini@polimi.it)

Additional information for workshop organizers

Workshop organizers are responsible for creating their schedules for individual workshops in their proposals. However, a recommended schedule will be available in due time.
