Call for Workshops and Tutorials
Workshop and Tutorials
Besides the standard conference track and the Doctoral Consortium, JURIX 2020 will virtually host a number of workshops and tutorials related to the theme of the conference.
Workshops provide an informal setting where participants have the opportunity to discuss specific topics in an atmosphere that fosters the active exchange of ideas.
Tutorials enable attendees to familiarize themselves with advances in AI and Law related subjects, both theoretical and technological.
The workshops session is scheduled on 9 December 2020.
JURIX 2020 welcomes workshops and tutorials that address topics that satisfy the following criteria:
- the topic falls in the general scope of JURIX 2020,
- there is a clear focus on a specific topic, technology, problem or application, and
there is a sufficiently large community interested in the topic.
Note that in the case of multiple workshop/tutorial submissions on the same topic, you may be asked to merge your proposal with that of others.
