Workshops

Workshops are interactive discussions about specific aspects of measuring techniques. Examples could be a discussion of requirements of a new feature of a program like a software event recorder with a group of users, discussion between manufacturers of data acquisition equipment to agree on a data exchange format, or discussion between usability testers and people measuring consumer behavior to see what can be learnt from each other's methodology.

Workshops are a forum where the multidisciplinary nature of Measuring Behavior can give a big advantage. Participants are normally asked to prepare and submit material in advance for the workshop and numbers can be limited to enable good interactive discussion.
