[Ieee_vis] ISMAR 2017 - Call for Workshops

[ISMAR 2017]

*ISMAR 2017 - CALL FOR WORKSHOPS*

The ISMAR 2017 organizing committee invites proposals for workshops to be
held in the ISMAR 2017 main conference. The workshops will be held on 9th
and 13th October 2017, in Nantes, France.

The purpose of the workshops is to provide participants with the
opportunity to present and discuss research ideas on cutting-edge research
topics related to Augmented, Mixed, and Virtual Reality as Science &
Technology and Arts, Media, & Humanities. We encourage researchers from
different academic communities as well as from industry and public
institutions to bring together and to collaborate and discuss with each
other about possible future topics and trends.

The scope of the proposals should be consistent with the main conference
topics. Please visit the conference webpage: http://ismar17.org/

*Format*

ISMAR workshops provide a platform for presentations of novel work, work in
progress and position papers. ISMAR workshops may also serve as a platform
to actively experience the insights of a variety of pervasive computing
topics in seminars. Since seminars aim for a maximum of interactivity, we
ask organizers of seminars to focus on proposals of how to involve
attendances. This can be for example, by organizing hands-on sessions or
pro-contra discussions of reading lists. Workshops may also be organized as
a combination of both, resulting in seminars with presentations of novel
work, work in progress or position statements.

Workshop organizers can choose one out of two options regarding the
publication. (1) The workshop's papers will be published in ISMAR 2017
adjunct Proceedings and IEEE Xplore. OR (2) The workshop's papers will not
be published but included in the supplemental material folder of the ISMAR
2017 USB memory proceedings.

workshop organizer is required to attend those workshops they are
organizing. Any change to the workshop organization team must be submitted
in writing at least two weeks prior to the workshop paper deadline. No
changes to the workshop organization team can be made after this date to
ensure that potential participants submitting papers to workshops are aware
