Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) is a key process probing the
nucleon's Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs), with major experimental
programs planned at JLab 12 GeV (CLAS12, Hall A), CERN COMPASS, and beyond
(EIC). The analysis of such experiments presents major challenges
that need to be addressed jointly by experimentalists and theorists.
Methods for DVCS analysis and GPD extraction at the leading-twist level are
presently being developed by several groups. The aim of the
workshop is to (a) identify the critical issues in DVCS analysis and
discuss methods to address them; (b) test and compare the analysis
procedures proposed so far; (c) formulate possible strategies for the
analysis of DVCS experiments with JLab 12 GeV, COMPASS, and a future EIC.
