                         CAiSE 22
             34th International Conference on
          Advanced Information Systems Engineering
                      Leuven, Belgium
                      June 6-10, 2022

=== Call for Tutorials
CAiSE’22 invites proposals for tutorials on advanced topics in the field of Information
Systems engineering. These tutorials will be 90 minutes long and should aim at offering
new insights, knowledge, and skills to managers, teachers, researchers, and students
seeking to gain a better understanding either about methods of broad interest in the
field, or emergent paradigms that are ripe for practical adoption or that require further
research to reach maturity. Proposals emphasizing the special theme of the CAISE’22
conference Intelligent Information Systems’ are highly encouraged, but proposals on other
new or long-standing fundamental challenges of Information Systems Engineering are also
welcome.

Tutorials are intended to provide a pedagogic introduction to or overview of a topic of
relevance. Potential presenters should keep in mind that there may be quite a varied
audience, including novice graduate students, seasoned practitioners, and specialized
researchers. Tutorial speakers should be prepared to cope with this diversity in the
audience. Tutorials will be organized in parallel with the technical sessions of the main
conference and participants of the conference will have free access to all of them.
Tutorials should be focused on principles, concepts, and methods. Commercial or sales-
oriented presentations are not allowed. 

Tutorial proposals should be submitted to easychair using the conference submission site
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=caise22) and then selecting the “CAiSE Tutorials”
track. Potential proposers are free to contact the tutorial chairs through easychair to
validate their idea prior to the submission. The tutorial chairs will review each proposal
and select a subset of them based on the following criteria:

(1) relevance to the field of IS engineering; 
(2) anticipated appeal to the conference audience; 
(3) timeliness and importance vis-à-vis of the conference audience; 
(4) past experience and qualifications of the instructor(s).

The tutorial chairs will also consider the complementarity of the proposal w.r.t. the
conference program and other tutorial proposals.

=== Detailed instructions for tutorial proposers
The proposal (length up to 1500 words) should cover the following points:
- Title
- Presenters and affiliation
- Goal and Objectives: The overall goal of the tutorial and the concrete objectives to be
achieved.
- Scope: Intended audience, level (basic or advanced), and prerequisites.
- Topic relevance and novelty: Specifically indicate the relevance to the scope of CAiSE,
the relevance to practice, the novel aspects that would make this tutorial beneficiary and
appealing to CAiSE participants.
- Structure of Contents: Here you should provide a structured overview of your planned
tutorial, organized into numbered sections and sub-sections. For each sub-section, you
should sketch its contents in a few sentences or bullet points.
- References: Provide references to papers, books, etc. that your tutorial builds on.
Please specify previous venues at which similar tutorials have been presented by you and
indicate the difference between the proposed tutorial and previous ones. CAiSE usually
does not accept tutorials that have been presented in other venues.
- Sample Slides: Include at least 5 sample slides of the presentation you plan to give if
your tutorial is accepted. Select slides that are typical of your presentation style.
These slides have to be submitted in a separate PDF file.
- A 3-5 minute video “teaser” of the tutorial, which provides a brief overview of the
planned tutorial to attract the intended audience.

=== Services provided by CAiSE 2022
