For the workshop, (extended) abstracts are to be submitted. They must be in English and should not exceed 4 pages in IEEE double-column format. They must be unpublished and must not be submitted for publication elsewhere. Those that are accepted will appear in the workshop proceedings, and must be presented by one of the authors. Submissions will be handled by the EasyChair system.
Full papers will be submitted to a special issue of the journal Numerical Linear Algebra with Applications (NLAA) after the workshop.
