Call for papers

WCTA is a forum primarily intended for early-stage researchers to present
their work. We encourage junior members of our community to submit a
one-page abstract (not including references) containing preferably
unpublished work, work in progress, surveys of interest, and open problems,
among others.
WCTA has no published proceedings, so the results presented can also be
submitted to other workshops and conferences.

Important dates

  *   Abstract deadline: September 7th, 2026 (anywhere on Earth)

  *   Notification: September 10th, 2026

  *   Workshop: October 16th, 2026

Submission

Please submit a one-page abstract (excluding references) in PDF format via
email to both Travis Gagie (travis.gagie at gmail.com) and Shahin Kamali
(kamalis at yorku.ca) with the subject line "WCTA submission". The workshop
will be in-person, with online presentations only in special cases (e.g.,
authors with travel difficulties). If you want to present online, please
request it in your submission email. There is no fee for WCTA.
