Call for Papers:

PROPOR 2018 Student Research Workshop
24-26 September, 2018
Canela, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Deadline for Submissions:  (old: 22 April) Extended: May 16 (11:59pm UTC -3)
http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/propor-2018/student-research-workshop/

The workshop invites two types of submissions:

Research Papers - completed work or work-in-progress along with preliminary
results. We encourage submissions from Ph.D. students, as well as Masters and
advanced undergraduate students. The first author of multi-author papers must
be a student, but additional co-authors need not be students.

Thesis Proposal - for advanced students who have decided on a thesis topic and
are interested in feedback about their proposal and ideas about future
directions for their work. Proposals may only have one author, who must be a
student.

Submission Criteria and Procedure:

The document must focus on some aspect of written or spoken Portuguese
processing and related issues or languages. In general, any topic that falls
within the scope of PROPOR call for papers
(http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/propor-2018/call-for-papers/) is appropriate. In this
edition, we also welcome submissions on computational aspects of all
Portuguese variants, including Galician, and related languages, such as
Spanish, indigenous languages in contact with Portuguese and Creole variants.

Documents must be submitted in English.

Documents must be submitted in PDF format, following the same style of PROPOR
2018 (Springer LNCS). Submissions are limited to 5 pages + 1 for references
only, including all figures, tables, and should begin with an abstract of 250
words or less.

LaTeX style:
ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/llncs/llncs2e.zip

MS Word style:
ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/llncs/word/splnproc1703.zip

Due to the nature of the workshop, in this edition, we will experiment with
non-blind reviewing, for both authors and reviewers. Therefore, the submission
should include author names and affiliations.

Submission deadline is (old 22 April) May 16, 2018.

Notifications to authors will be sent on June 25, 2018.

Accepted entrants must prepare an A0 poster (portrait format) to be presented
at a special session.

Multiple Submission Policy

Papers that have been or will be submitted to other meetings or publications
must indicate this at submission time. Authors of papers accepted for
presentation at PROPOR SRW 2018 must notify the program chairs whether the
paper will be presented. All accepted papers must be presented at the workshop
in order for them to appear in the proceedings. We will not accept for
publication or presentation papers that overlap significantly in content or
results with papers that will be (or have been) published elsewhere. Double
submissions to the PROPOR main conference and the Student Research Workshop
are not allowed.  In the case of two different submissions, the authors must
ensure that these submissions do not overlap significantly (> 50%) with each
other in content or results.

Any questions can be sent to: propor2018srw at gmail.com
