From a software engineering point of view:
- Design methods for spreadsheets
- Testing of spreadsheets
- Spreadsheet auditing
- Spreadsheet reuse
- Spreadsheet maintenance
From a theoretical point of view:
- Formal models of spreadsheets
- Type systems for spreadsheets
- Notions of spreadsheet correctness
- New spreadsheet languages
- Support for abstraction in spreadsheets
Authors are invited to submit papers in PDF format. Papers should be
10 - 15 pages long.
Keeping in mind the ENTCS post-workshop publication (see below),

Submission should be sent by email to erwig@cs.orst.edu by June 20,
2004.
