Open Source - AUUG'99
AUUG Incorporated is proud to announce that it will be holding Australia's first Open Source conference in conjunction with AUUG99 - the AUUG Winter Conference.
The conference will be held at the Carlton Crest Hotel, Queens Rd, Melbourne, Australia, between September 8th and 10th.
The conference will be preceded by two days of tutorials, on September 6th and 7th.
The programme committee invites proposals for papers and tutorials relating to:
Presentations may be given as tutorials, technical papers, or management studies. Technical papers are designed for those who need in-depth knowledge, whereas management studies present case studies of real-life experiences in the conference's fields of interest.
All presentations must be accompanied by a written paper for the conference proceedings.
Presentations should be 20-25 minutes in length, allowing 5-10 minutes for questions. Each presentation will be scheduled in a half hour timeslot.
Panel sessions will also be timetabled in the conference and speakers should indicate their willingness to participate, and may like to suggest panel topics.
Tutorials, which may be of either a technical or management orientation, provide a more thorough presentation, of either a half-day or full-day duration.
Representing the largest Unix and Open Systems event held in Australia and the inaugral Open Source conference this conference offers an unparallelled opportunity to present your ideas and experiences to an audience with a major influence on the direction of computing in Australia.
Those proposing to submit papers should submit an extended abstract (1-3 pages) and a brief biography.
Those submitting tutorial proposals should submit an outline of the tutorial and a brief biography, and clearly indicate whether the tutorial is of half-day or full-day duration.
Presenters of papers are afforded complimentary conference registration.
Tutorial presenters may select 25% of the profit of their session OR complimentary conference registration. Past experience suggests that a successful tutorial session of either duration can generate a reasonable return to the presenter.
