Are you interested in hosting a workshop at ISC 2025? We provide a collaborative platform for professionals within high performance computing and applied domains to come together to address, discuss, and develop solutions for specific industry challenges. You have the option to host two types of workshops.
1. Workshops with Proceedings: These focus on distributing their own call for papers and implementing a peer-review process. They have specific requirements and a submission schedule. Accepted papers will be published in post-conference proceedings. Please read the section “conference proceedings” carefully before submitting your workshop.
2. Regular Workshops: These workshops will not have their own call for papers. The organizers however are encouraged to submit a state-of-the-art review/summary paper of their workshop with at least 6 pages to be included in the conference proceedings. This paper should summarize the presented content and key findings of the workshop.
NEW AT ISC 2025
- ISC 2025 Workshops and Tutorials will be held at the same time on the same day (Friday, June 13, 2025, from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm).
- To avoid conflicts, if an organizer wants to contribute both a workshop and a tutorial featuring the same speakers, only one half-day workshop and one half-day tutorial will be accepted.
However, workshop and tutorial proposals can effectively complement each other. For instance, a tutorial might focus on practical, hands-on sessions in the morning, while a related workshop could delve into theoretical foundations and advanced concepts in the afternoon. This structure allows participants to attend a tutorial in the morning and then explore the topic in greater depth during the afternoon workshop.

Word of advice from organizers
You must submit a list of accepted workshop papers until April 4, 2025. We recommend setting the paper submission deadline for early March 2025 and notifying the authors of acceptance by the end of March at the latest so that the speakers can benefit from the early bird pricing and you can meet the number of accepted workshop papers deadline.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Submitted workshop proposals will be reviewed by the ISC 2025 Workshop Committee.
Submission Process
- Upload as a single PDF file with important items such as the workshop scope, relevance, and impact; list of tentative program committee members and/or steering committee; format (e.g., talks, panel sessions, keynote); expected outcome; and strategies for advertising and attracting attendees.
- Please submit the workshop program website, which should include a URL containing general information about the workshop and its agenda. The website does not need to be finalized and can be updated with additional details before the workshop date. The ISC website will feature all workshops and provide links to their respective submitted websites. For regular workshops, a PDF document is also acceptable.
Review Process
- Each workshop proposal will receive a minimum of 3 reviews
- Workshops will be evaluated based on originality, significance, quality, and clarity
TERMS & CONDITIONS
- By submitting a workshop proposal, you agree to organize and host the workshop in person in Hamburg.
- Workshop organizers and speakers must register for an ISC 2025 workshop pass. ISC will grant a 100% discount on one workshop pass to organizers of half-day workshops and two workshop passes to organizers of full-day workshops.
- ISC will provide meeting room facilities and basic technical equipment for the workshops. Workshop organizers and speakers must bring their presentation laptops and adapters.
- The workshop organizers will have to align their program with the workshop break schedule (morning sessions are from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.; afternoon sessions are from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., with coffee breaks and lunch in between). Catering during coffee and lunch breaks will be provided to all registered workshop attendees.
- ISC will promote the workshops as part of the regular conference publicity activities. However, it is recommended that workshop organizers use their channels to attract attendees to their events.
- ISC will not cover travel, accommodation, registration fees, and other such costs.
PUBLICATIONS
Conference Proceedings
The post-conference Workshop Proceedings will be published with Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).
We will organize the proceedings in a lightweight fashion. Workshops with proceedings must submit at least three full papers of significant scientific content, with a minimum of 6 pages and a maximum of 12 pages per paper (including a bibliography and appendices, with two possible extra pages after the review to address the reviewer’s comments). If a workshop submits less than three papers in total, it will not be included in the workshop proceedings.
Papers that are very short (fewer than 4 pages) may be moved to the back matter. These papers will not be available for indexing, and they will not be individually visible on SpringerLink. However, they will be listed in the Table of Contents. Abstracts of invited talks that are not accompanied by a full paper will be included in the front matter and not in the main part of the proceedings. Submitting short papers and abstracts does not fit the idea of a workshop with proceedings.
The organizers of regular workshops are encouraged to submit a state-of-the-art review/summary paper of their workshop with at least 6 pages to be included in the conference proceedings. This paper should summarize the presented content and key findings of the workshop.
Workshop organizers are also free to organize the publication of paper proceedings on their own.
Presentation Materials for Attendees
Presentation slides will be available in the event platform (Swapcard) for registered attendees.
