# About ETAPS

The European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS) is 
the primary European forum for academic and
industrial researchers working on topics relating to Software Science. It has 
been an annual event held in Europe each
spring since 1998. Its 27th edition, ETAPS 2024, will be held on 06-11 April 
2024, at Parc Hotel Alvisse, 120 Route
d'Echternach, 1453 Luxembourg.

The ETAPS 2024 main conferences, scheduled for 08–11 April, are:

* ESOP: European Symposium on Programming
* FASE: Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering
* FoSSaCS: Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures
* TACAS: Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems

The ETAPS 2024 satellite events will be held on Saturday and Sunday, 06–07 
April 2024.

## Call for Satellite Events

The ETAPS 2024 organizing committee invites proposals for satellite events 
(workshops) to complement the main
conferences. They should fall within the scope of ETAPS.

Satellite events provide an opportunity to discuss and report on emerging 
research approaches and practical experience
relevant to the theory and practice of software.

## Important Dates

* Deadline for proposals of satellite events: 21 July 2023
* Notification of acceptance: 31 July 2023

## Arrangements for Satellite Events

The organizers of an ETAPS 2024 satellite event are expected to:

- create and maintain a website for the event as a part of the main ETAPS 
website
- form a PC and produce a call for papers for the event (if appropriate)
- advertise the event through mailing lists etc. to complement the publicity 
of ETAPS
- review submissions and make acceptance decisions
- prepare informal (pre-)proceedings for the event, if appropriate
- prepare the event's program according to the overall schedule of ETAPS 2024
- prepare and organize the publication of formal (post-)proceedings, if 
desired

The ETAPS 2024 organizing committee will:

- promote the event on the website and in the publicity material of ETAPS 2024
- integrate the event's program into the overall program of the conference
- arrange registration for the event as a component of registration for ETAPS
- collect a participation fee from the registrants
- provide a meeting room of appropriate size, A/V equipment, coffee breaks, 
and possibly lunch(es)

As a rule, ETAPS will not contribute toward the travel or accommodation costs 
of invited speakers or organizers of
satellite events.
