Following the tradition of previous conferences, EDOC 2013 plans to host
a number of workshops alongside the main conference. The workshops will
provide a collaborative forum for a group of typically 15 to 30
participants to exchange recent and/or preliminary results, to conduct
intensive discussions on a particular topic, or to coordinate efforts
between representatives of a technical community. They are intended as a
forum for lively discussion of innovative ideas, recent progress, or
practical. Each workshop should provide a balanced distribution of its
time for both presentation of papers and discussions. We encourage
prospective workshop organizers to submit proposals for
highly-interactive workshops focusing on areas related to enterprise
computing in general. Both research-oriented and applied topics are
welcome.
