Guidelines for Organizing Workshops
1. Proposal Preparation
The ICDAR encourages satellite workshops focusing on various topics related to document analysis and recognition. The prospective workshop organizer should submit a proposal to the ICDAR Workshop Chair in due time. The ICDAR Workshop Chair collects all the proposals, consider their impact and flexibility, coverage of topics, and make a plan of workshops. Some proposals maybe rejected and some may need modification. The approved proposals will enter the organization stage.
The proposal should include following facts:
- Title of workshop, coverage of topics
- Proposed workshop chair, program chair and organizing chair
- Proceedings publication format (web, electronic or print)
- Deadlines of paper submission, acceptance notification and camera-ready submission
- Expected numbers of submissions and participants
- Estimated costs and the proposed registration fee
2. Workshop Organization
After a workshop proposal is accepted, the workshop organizing committee work toward the technical program, and the local arrangements committee of ICDAR provide logistics.
Workshop Organizing Committee. The workshop chair should form the program committee (including chair and members) and an organizing committee. The program committee calls for and review papers, make the final technical program and execute the program. The organizing committee works on publicity, proceedings publication (if needed), and coordinate with the ICDAR local arrangements committee on logistics.
Publicity. It is recommended that the workshop organizing committee make a webpage of the workshop, which will be linked to the webpage of ICDAR. Calls for papers and announcements can be distributed via the mailing list of ICDAR. Webpage links and announcements should be sent to the publication chair of ICDAR’2011 (Di Wen, wendi@ocrserv.ee.tsinghua.edu.cn)
Technical Program. The workshop program committee should prepare documents of Call for Papers, review submitted papers and make acceptance decision, make the technical program and execute the program. If the workshop would like to publish proceedings, the program committee should edit the proceedings and contract with a publisher (if formal publication needed). The local arrangements committee can find a local printing service for printing the proceedings if needed. All the costs will be covered by the registration fee of the workshop.
Logistics. On determining the workshop time and size (excepted number of participants), the ICDAR local arrangements committee reserves meeting rooms at the ICDAR main conference venue. In case that the main conference venue cannot accommodate too many workshops and tutorials, the local arrangements committee may consider meeting rooms of other nearby hotels or at the organizing institutions of ICDAR. Meeting room setup, coffee break service and lunches will be provided by the local arrangements committee, and the costs are covered by the registration fee of workshop.
Registration. The registration fee of workshop covers the meeting room, coffee break service, lunch and proceedings publication costs. The ICDAR local arrangements committee coordinates with the workshop organizing committee to estimate the registration fee standard based on estimated costs and number of participants. The ICDAR local arrangements committee charges the registration fees and pays all the costs.
Sponsorship. If the workshop organizer can find financial sponsorship from the government or industry dedicated to the workshop, the sponsored money is recommended to transfer to the account of the local organizing institutions of ICDAR, for partially covering the costs of the workshop. Please be aware that the ICDAR’2011 main conference will not provide financial support to the satellite workshops.
