Call for Workshop Contributions:
http://ieeevr.org/2018/contribute/workshops.html

Full-day or half-day workshops are intended to bring together
researchers, developers, technology providers, and users for a lively
discussion of issues and an informal exchange of ideas and information.

Workshops may target a specific application area, a specific research
area, or a topic of general interest.
We invite individuals or teams interested in organizing such a workshop
to submit proposals. Workshops will be held on March 18th and 19th,
2018. Tutorials, one keynote speaker and an Institute visit will also be
held on these two days.

Workshop proposals should be submitted electronically and should include:

	• A title and an acronym
	• A brief topic description (approximately 500 words) including a
statement of what the organizers expect participants to submit (such as
position papers or preliminary research results),
	• The intended audience and its expected size
	• A list of invited speakers (if any),
	• Describe the format or style of the workshop (such as a series of
short presentations, with a panel discussion session, working groups, or
other)
	• The expected benefits of participating in the workshop, and
	• The names, contact information, and brief biographies (roughly 100
words each) of the workshop organizers.
	• Technical requirements, including space, audio/visual, computer, and
communication needs.

The deadline for workshop submissions is November 15th, 2017,
notifications will be sent out on November 29th. Workshop submissions
must be submitted via email to the Workshops Chairs ( workshops2018 [at]
ieeevr.org​). Workshop organizers will be expected to issue their
calls-for-participation no later than December 12nd and to issue any
acceptance decisions to their participants no later than February 10th
in order to allow sufficient time for travel planning and advance
registration to the conference. IEEE VR Workshops proceedings will be
published electronically through the IEEE Digital Library dependent on
the on-time submission of the proceedings by the workshops' organizers,
before the mandatory IEEE deadline. Organizers of accepted workshops are
encouraged to seek assistance from the Workshops Chairs to navigate this
process.
