2. Process to-date
• Organizers decided on initial topics
• Invited PC members, who helped refine topics
• Submissions turned in through 58 self-published short position and
experience papers
• PC members invited to review self-selected papers, average of 3.12
reviews per paper
• 54 papers viewed as relevant and making a contribution; these
papers are linked from the workshop website
• Based on reviews, organizers grouped papers into three areas, and
again based on reviews, selected panelists to represent each area
• Invited 2 keynote speakers
• Wrote up short description of this process, published as arXiv
report (http://arxiv.org/abs/1311.3523)
– Documents what we have done
– Contains links to each paper, to help get them in the indexing system

4. What happens next
• It’s up to all of us to decide
• Because of the NSF connection, some themes will be further discussed in
a workshop for SI2 PIs being planned for February
• More open follow-up workshops/conference possible
– Think about the right venues for a workshop
– Is enough here for a full conference?
• Each contributor: consider an additional version of your contributions
based on learning from discussion?
– Self published? Traditionally published? Venue for submission?
– Special issue?
• All participants: consider if there are specific issues, challenges, or
solutions raised in the workshop that you would contribute to further
debate through co-authored papers from the workshop, or through blog
posts.
– Depending on how the panels go, this might be a paper per panel, or it might
be that each panel chair identifies key cross-cutting challenges that are shared
with the other panels (for instance education and training).
– Who is interested?
– Venue for submission?
