Workshop proposals

The CCGrid 2026 workshops serve as platforms for discussions on specific subjects, new research areas, or interdisciplinary fields. Organisers have the flexibility to design these workshops in various ways, including invited lectures, panel discussions, presentations of ongoing work, peer-reviewed short or full papers, or a mix of these elements.

Workshops will be scheduled in parallel sessions on the opening day of the conference (18 May). While it's suggested that workshops last for half a day, they can be extended to a full day based on interest, available space, and the organisers' preferences.

The acceptance rate for workshops should be aligned closely with that of CCGrid2026 (between 20% and 25%).

Eligibility

To qualify for publication, all accepted papers must be peer reviewed by at least two reviewers.

Submission guidelines

Workshops should ideally correspond to one or more topics of interest at the CCGrid2026 conference.
Workshop proposals must be in PDF format.
Workshop proposals must be emailed to the Workshop Chairs for assessment. The review panel provides their decisions, which may include recommendations for enhancement before the specified deadline.
