13th International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE'17)
21st-25th August 2016, Seoul, Korea

Intelligent Environments (IE) refer to physical spaces into which IT and 
other pervasive computing technology are woven and used to achieve 
specific goals for the user, the environment or both.
IE have the ultimate objective of enriching user experience, better 
manage, and increase user awareness of that environment.
The 13th International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE'17) 
will be held at Seoul, the capital and largest metropolis of the 
Republic of Korea.
As in previous editions, workshops will take place in the first two days 
of the conference.

The Workshop Program @ IE'17 will be a very interesting and useful tool 
to complement the regular program with new and emerging topics of 
particular interest in the scope of Intelligent Environments and related 
areas.
Workshops that emphasize multidisciplinary and cross-cutting aspects as 
well as cutting edge topics are especially encouraged and welcome.

Workshop proposal and acceptance process
------------------------------ - - - -  -  -   -     -
The decision on which proposed workshop gets accepted will be 
carried-out through a two-stage process.
Initially, the workshops proposed will be short-listed, based on the 
quality of the proposal and the relevance of the topics covered.
Later, the workshops will be confirmed in case they have succeeded in 
attracting a significant number of quality submissions.

Each workshop proposal should contain the following information:
1. Workshop title;
2. Description of the technical and scientific scope of the workshop;
3. Topics of interest;
4. Reasons why the workshop should be held at IE'17;
5. Detailed information about the members of the Workshop Organizing 
Committee (WOC), naming the contact person;
6. Relevant experience of the WOC;
7. List of members of the workshop program committee;
8. Preliminary version of the workshop call for papers;
9. Structure of the workshop and planned forms of advertising and 
dissemination.

Workshops can last for half a day or a full day.
