Re: WS-REST2016 is looking for your API work

Hi Tom,

> I'm interested in submitting some work

Great!

> although I'm slightly thrown by the format, being used to making talk sub=
missions, rather than "submit a paper".

Yes. This workshop's format is inspired by scientific conferences,
where there always is a published document,
which you then (more or less) explain in a talk.

That doesn't necessarily mean we value paper more than talks;
it just means that there is a written work that people can read and refer t=
o afterwards.

> Do you have any thoughts/pointers on the style that papers are expected t=
o be submitted in?

Absolutely! You can have a look at submissions of previous years:
=96 http://ws-rest.org/2014/program/
=96 http://ws-rest.org/2013/program/
=96 http://ws-rest.org/2012/program/

Try to find a paper close to your interests/topic to get an idea of what pe=
ople typically write.

> Are there any notable formalities, conventions or requirements I should b=
e aware of when submitting?

Not really, except that, if you want this paper to be officially published =
in the proceedings,
you will need to follow the LNCS template (https://www.springer.com/compute=
r/lncs?SGWID=3D0-164-6-793341-0).

All other accepted papers will be published on the website.

> Are papers arising from a non-academic context also expected/encouraged?

Most certainly! This workshop aims to bring together practitioners and rese=
archers.

Best,

Ruben
