Call for MFCS'17 Workshop Proposals - Deadline December 20th, 2017



The 42nd International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer
Science (MFCS 2017) invites proposals for a one- or two-days workshops.
MFCS2017 is organized in the period August 21-25, 2017 in Aalborg, Denmark.
The workshops can be organized either in the weekend before the conference
(19-20 August) or on Saturday 26 August. Workshops are expected to focus on
new research directions and the topic should be broadly connected with the
topics of MFCS.



Arrangements for workshops:



The organizers of an MFCS2017 workshop are expected to:

* create and maintain a website for the event,

* produce a call for papers for the event (if appropriate),

* advertise the event through specialist mailing lists etc.

* review the submissions (if appropriate) and make acceptance decisions,

* prepare an informal (pre)proceedings for the event (if appropriate),

* prepare the event's program, and

* prepare and organize the publication of a formal (post-)proceedings (if
desired).



The MFCS2017 organizing committee will:

* promote the event on the website and in the publicity material of MFCS'17,

* integrate the event's program into the overall program of the conference,

* arrange registration for the event as a component of registration for
MFCS and

  collect a participation fee from the registrants,

* provide the event with a meeting room of an appropriate size including
A/V equipment, and

* provide two coffee breaks and lunch per day (see the financial details
below).





Financial details:

The basic fee for a one-day workshop is 70 Euro, for a two-days workshop is
110 Euro, to be payed also by the workshop organizers and invited speakers.
The registration fee includes the rent of the room including A/V equipment,
two coffee-breaks and one lunch per day. The organizers can add more to the
basic price an amount to cover their invited speakers and/or their
registration fee. A 25% of VAT will be deducted from the extra payment
before they can get it. So, e.g., for

a one-day workshop, if the organizers will ask for 30 Euro extra, the price
of the workshop for the participant will be 100 Euro and the organizers
will get 24 Euro at their disposal.

The MFCS organizing committee will not contribute toward the travel or
accommodation costs of invited speakers or the organizers of satellite
events.
