Workshop Format and Submissions

The format of the workshop will strongly be discussion-oriented, and it will combine short presentations, followed by discussions, and focused discussion groups. Authors who plan to contribute with a paper are requested to submit a position paper in PDF format to both christa.schwanninger@siemens.com and zhao-jj@cs.sjtu.edu.cn by January 15, 2006.

We are soliciting the submission of very short position papers (1-2 pages), where the authors describe their thoughts, lessons learned, or points of view with respect to one or more workshop topics. . Papers will be refereed by at least two reviewers, and should describe work that is not yet advanced enough for a full paper. Moreover we *especially* encourage authors to present their experience and/or novel ideas on how to assess AOSD techniques. The papers chosen for presentation should offer different or novel perspectives on the workshop topics and they must have a high potential for generating issues that will stimulate the discussions.
