Definitive program

Workshop date: Monday, 20 June 2022

Activities to be carried out with our workshop:

(*) All times are in Europe/Paris Timezone (GMT + 2) = UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) + 2

(+) We encourage the authors to prepare either a poster or a few slides, demos and/or video projections, ensuring a real interaction among the attendees. We also encourage the authors to leave some questions open to be discussed.

(#) We encourage those who are interested and plan to attend this workshop section to previously send us (via email, to mhornos at ugr.es, carlosrodriguez at ugr.es, a.santokhee at mdx.ac.mu and j.augusto at mdx.ac.uk) suggestions and proposals on challenges and exercises to be addressed in this discussion section. Our idea is that we all have the opportunity to actively participate instead of just sitting passively listening to what others say.

Program explanation

Each author can use as support to present their work either a poster or a few slides, encouraging audience participation and leaving some questions open in order to promote a real interaction among participants. The idea is to share knowledge and experiences on the workshop topics among the attendees. Optionally, authors may willingly present a demo of their work and/or project a video related to it.

There will be only a long oral presentation with slides, the keynote talk. After that, we will have the paper presentation session, followed by a debate and discussion among all the attendees focused on identifying challenges in the areas covered by the workshop. Of course, we will try to link the ideas discussed to the contents of the keynote and accepted papers, with the aim of trying to propose how the achievements of each work can benefit others and establish a real sense of community interested in addressing the current challenges in such areas. Attendees will be also invited to propose other topics they like to be discussed in this activity.

The PDF files of the papers accepted will be placed in a folder in Google Drive. This folder will be shared among all the participants in advance, with the aim to facilitate their previous reading, and thus to take advantage of the time available for fruitful discussing during the meeting.

In order to facilitate the discussion and encourage that interesting results can arise from it, if the number of attendees to the workshop is high, a series of (a manageable size) groups will be formed to discuss about the topics addressed during the workshop and others related to them. Finally, the conclusions reached by each group will be shared with the rest of groups and possibilities for their dissemination and plans for the future will be agreed.
