Proposals for papers (abstract maximum: 800 words) should deal with
substantial or completed research; report the development of significant
new methodologies or digital resources; and present rigorous
theoretical, speculative, or critical discussions. Individual papers
will be allocated 20 minutes for presentation and 10 minutes for questions.

Proposals relating to the development of new computing methodologies or
digital resources should indicate how the methods are applied to
research and/or teaching in the humanities and what their impact has
been in formulating and addressing research questions. They should also
include critical assessments of their application in the humanities as
well as of the computing methodologies used.

Panels

Panels should focus on a single theme and be conceived as a 90-minute
session of four to six speakers. Besides the paper abstracts, a short
(200-300 words) presentation of the panel should be submitted by the
organizer(s).

Pre-Conference Workshops

Workshops are normally either half-day or full-day intensive
introductions to specific techniques, software packages or theoretical
approaches with a small number of participants. Participants in
