Developer Rooms
New this year, there will be some developer rooms available.
Some have internet connectivity and some already contain machines
suitable for web browsing and connecting to remote applications.
So you may also use the form below to propose small-scale talks,
discussions and/or hands-on tutorials/demos/coding that make use of
these facilities and which will be scheduled to run alongside the main
conference programme.
Abstracts
Abstracts for the main conference or tutorial programme should be
accompanied by a short biography, and,
ideally, should be about 250-500 words long.
Final papers should normally last about 45 minutes, including
10 minutes for questions and answers.
If you need more time for your presentation,
please tell us when you submit your abstract.
Proposals for the use of the developer rooms are of course free
of these restrictions.
Abstracts should be submitted to the conference organisers
electronically through this form.
We shall acknowledge all submissions.
