Submissions and reviews
Short papers: max. 6 pages, 15 minutes presentationPosition papers: max. 6 pages, 15 minutes presentations
Full research papers: max. 14 pages, 30 minutes presentation
(Page number excludes references, presentations include Q&A.)
All submissions should be formatted according to the template provided for FOIS 2016 (link).
Each contribution will be peer-reviewed, and the review process will be managed in a collaborative and transparent manner using the EasyChair System. We welcome researchers from all career stages to participate, work in progress (short papers) are also welcome as the primary goal of the workshop is discussion. All papers must be original work and not submitted to or accepted by any other workshop, conference or journal. All accepted papers will be published as part of the JOWO Joint Proceedings in the CEUR Workshop Series CEUR-WS: http://ceur-ws.org/. Depending on the number and quality of submissions we will consider planning a special issue of an international journal covering the topics of this workshop.
