Introduction
=============
CHIUW 2018 continues our annual workshop series that brings users and 
developers of the Chapel language (https://chapel-lang.org) together to 
report on work being done with the language and to advance the Chapel 
effort.  Attendance is open to anyone interested in Chapel, from the 
seasoned enthusiast to anyone simply curious to learn more.

The first day of the workshop will essentially be a full-day 
mini-conference focusing on Chapel-related material.  We also anticipate 
holding our traditional "code camp" session on the second day to support 
pair-programming and collaborative activities.


Call For Submissions
====================
For CHIUW 2018, we will be accepting submissions in two forms: (1) full 
research papers and (2) talk-only extended abstracts.

Paper Submissions 
-----------------
If you have Chapel-related work that you would like to publish at CHIUW as 
part of the IEEE IPDPS workshop proceedings, please prepare your 
manuscript according to the IEEE IPDPS 2018 call for papers and submit it 
via the CHIUW 2018 EasyChair site [1] by the submission deadline below. 
All accepted papers will be governed by the IEEE IPDPS workshop 
publication deadlines and procedures.  Papers that are not accepted for 
publication at CHIUW 2018 will automatically be considered as topics for 
the talk-only track unless the author indicates otherwise in their 
submission.

Talk-only Proposals
-------------------
To propose a talk at CHIUW without an accompanying research paper, please 
send a 1–2 page extended abstract / short paper using reasonable 
formatting and a 10- or 11-point font.  These submissions should be 
several paragraphs long and give as detailed a preview of the talk's 
contents as possible.  Talk submissions may summarize previously published 
work or preview work not yet ready for publication.  These submissions 
will be evaluated based on the novelty and maturity of the work combined 
with the expected level of interest to the CHIUW audience.  Talk-only 
submissions should be sure to include: The title of the talk; the list of 
authors and their affiliations; and the presenting author. Submit your 
extended abstract via the CHIUW 2018 EasyChair site [1] by the submission 
deadline below.
