General Information
===================

Proposals  for workshops are invited for affiliation with
SBAC-PAD  2007.  The  purpose  of  these  workshops is to
create  a  forum  for discussing themes that not only are
associated  with  the conference topics, but also promote
the  integration with other research areas. The workshops
may  also  serve as a platform for presenting novel ideas
in  a  less formal and possibly more focused way than the
symposium  itself.  As  such,  they  also  offer  a  good
opportunity  for  young researchers to present their work
and  to obtain feedback from an interested community. The
format  of  each  workshop  is  to  be  determined by the
organizers,   but   it  is  expected  that  they  contain
significant time for general discussion.

Workshops  may  be  held in Portuguese or English and may
have  a  duration  of half day or full day. The number of
attendees  per workshop is subject to the availability of
meeting  rooms. All workshop attendees must be registered
to SBAC-PAD.

The  SBAC-PAD  organizers  will  be  responsible  for the
logistics  of  the  workshops,  including  projection and
computational resources. The meeting rooms capacity range
from  60  to 200 persons. The workshop organizers will be
responsible  for publishing the electronic proceedings in
a workshop  Web  page that contains all accepted paper in
PDF  format.  The SBAC-PAD organization will also publish
the  electronic  proceedings in CD. Any additional costs,
such  as  travel  and  lodging  for  invited speakers are
workshop  organizers  responsibility.  The workshops will
be held in Gramado, RS, Brazil.

Proposal Submission
===================

Researchers  and  practitioners  who  are  interested  in
submitting  proposals  must  send  mail  to  the  address
<sbac2007-l at inf.ufrgs.br>.  Please  look  forward  for  a
