Workshop proposals
The proposal will include the following information: (1) the title of the workshop, (2) name, affiliation and biographies of the organizer, (3) an abstract of no more than one page describing the aims of the workshop and the motivation for holding it and participating to it (target audience), (4) a workshop chair and a tentative list of participants/speakers, (5) the expected duration of the workshop, (6) a draft CFP of the workshop. Workshop sessions are expected to last 90-120 minutes, but a workshop may comprise multiple sessions.

Online Track
The main spirit of the online track is to "Walk the Talk", so those participating only online will be required to create an interactive presentation that will be available through Open Course Builder. More information is available on the conference website.

Student Track
Student papers may include thesis plans, proposed research, as well as partial or complete research results already obtained. Papers should clearly state the stage at which the candidate is at in their PhD or Master (i.e. number of years of study completed), and should follow the regular conference format.

Panels
The theme for this year's conference is "Shared Experiences: Bringing distributed students together to complete a common goal".

Paper Submission
Papers should be no more than 8 pages in length and will be peer-reviewed. Complete formatting and submission instructions are at http://eleot.org/. Submitted papers must be original work, and may not be under consideration for another conference or journal. More information at http://eleot.org/2014/show/registration.

Publication
Accepted papers will be published in the eLEOT Conference Proceedings and by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes of ICST (LNICST). The proceedings will be available both in book form and via the SpringerLink digital library, which is one of the largest digital libraries online and covers a variety of scientific disciplines. LNICST volumes are submitted for inclusion to leading indexing services, including DBLP, Google Scholar, ACM Digital Library, ISI Proceedings, EI Engineering Index, CrossRef, Scopus and Zentralblatt Math, as well as ICST's own EU Digital Library (EUDL).
