Workshop chair(s) will be responsible for the following:

1. Producing a web page and a “Call for Papers/Participation” for their
workshop. The URL should be sent to the AICCSA Workshops chairs. It should
mention that at least one author of each accepted submission should attend
the workshop and that all workshop participants must pay the appropriate
registration fee. The CfP should make it clear that the registration of at
least one author is required for the paper to be included in the conference
proceedings.

2. Ensure that all workshop papers are a maximum of 6 pages in length (in
IEEE format). It is the responsibility of the workshop organizers to ensure
that this page limit has been adhered to.

3. Taking full responsibility of workshop submission, reviewing process and
decisions

publication of proceedings will be by the IEEE in the same volume as the
main conference.

5. Advertising the workshop beyond the conference web page.

6. Assistance in producing a camera-ready version of the workshop
proceedings.

7. If the workshop is too small (i.e. does not attract enough submissions)
the AICCSA 2020 Organizing Committee may propose to merge that workshop
with another. So we encourage workshop organizers to attract a large
community. In extreme situations we may also cancel workshops if there are
insufficient number of submissions, while we may consider the paper for the
main tracks.

8. Workshop organizers must ensure that suitable quality measures have been
taken to ensure that the accepted papers are of high quality. All papers
must be reviewed by an International Technical Program Committee with a
minimum of 3 reviews per paper. The workshop organizers should also try to
observe an acceptance rate that is no higher than 50%.

*The AICCSA 2020 Conference Organizing Committee will be responsible for
the following:*

• Providing a link to a workshop’s local page.

• Providing logistics support and a meeting place for the workshop.

• In conjunction with the organizers, determining the workshop date and
time.

• Inclusion of the workshop accepted papers into the main proceedings and
provide to Participants.
