*****************************************************

SIGCOMM 2013 is soliciting proposals for new and recurring workshops. SIGCOMM 
2013 will hold multiple one-day workshops in conjunction with the conference, 
to be held in Hong Kong from August 12 to 16, 2013. Workshops will take place 
on Monday, August 12 and Friday, August 16.

We invite you to submit workshop proposals on any topic related to the broad 
set of research and application areas covered the by SIGCOMM conference and SIG.

SIGCOMM 2013 workshops can take any of the following forms:

   - Workshops that publish early results in emerging areas
   - Teaching workshops that provide hands-on experience in area of general 
interest to the SIGCOMM community, e.g., cloud programming, mobile apps, PHY 
Layer programming, etc.
   - New and established workshops. Unlike previous years, we welcome returning 
workshops even if they have appeared at SIGCOMM for the last two years.

A workshop proposal should contain at least the following information:

    - Motivation and rationale for the workshop.
    - For teaching workshops, a draft of the syllabus; otherwise a draft Call 
For Papers (CFP), as complete as possible.
    - The workshop deadlines, both internal and external. See below for 
guidelines on important external guidelines.
    - Names and affiliations of main organizers. If the workshop is not a 
teaching workshop, include a tentative composition of the committees (as 
complete as possible). Please indicate whether prospective TPC members have 
been contacted, and whether they have accepted the invitation. We strongly 
discourage speculative TPC listings.
    - Workshop format, i.e., expected number of presented papers, invited 
talks, panels, demonstrations, etc.
    - Expected number of participants. Further, if the workshop is not a 
teaching workshop, please include the expected number of submissions.
    - Prior history of this workshop, if any, including number of submissions, 
number of accepted papers, and attendee count. If the workshop was co-located 
with another conference please include details and a brief description why 
SIGCOMM is a more appropriate venue.

Note that workshop format itself should favor interaction among participants as 
well as community building.
