[FOM] [CiE] CiE 2010 - Call for Participation and Informal Presentations

      Call for Participation and Informal Presentations
***********************************************************

CALL FOR INFORMAL PRESENTATIONS
There is a remarkable difference in conference style between computer
science and mathematics conferences. Mathematics conferences allow for
informal presentations that are prepared very shortly before the
conference and inform the participants about current research and work
in progress. The format of computer science conferences with
pre-conference proceedings is not able to accommodate this form of
scientific communication.

Again continuing the tradition of past CiE conferences, this year's CiE
conference endeavours to get the best of both worlds. In addition to the
formal presentations based on our LNCS proceedings volume, we invite
researchers to present informal presentations. For this, please send us
a brief description of your talk (between one paragraph and half a page)
by the DEADLINE:

MAY 15, 2010.
Please submit your abstract electronically, via EasyChair

You will be notified whether your talk has been accepted for informal
presentation usually within a week after your submission.

Let us remind you that we are planning several post-conference
publications, which will contain full articles of selected CiE 2010
presentations, including informal presentations.

We also want to draw attention to the various funding opportunities
still available.
