Workshop
Saturday, October 9th, 2004, Rec Pool Lodge
The Department of Computer Science at the University of California at Davis is sponsoring a Student Workshop to highlight research within the department and to promote the exchange of ideas among students working in research areas related to computing. All students are invited to submit 2-page abstracts describing recent and continuing work. Selected abstracts will appear in a proceedings that will be distributed at the workshop, and that will subsequently appear as a technical report. Approximately 10-15 of the submitted abstracts will be selected for presentation. There will be an award for best presentation, to be decided by the audience.
Submissions are encouraged in any area of computing. Furthermore,
non-traditional submissions in related computing fields are encouraged.
Submissions
The abstract should describe the essential ideas in the research and have a short bibliograpy that includes any papers or technical memoranda on which the abstract is based. The first page of the abstract must begin with a title, the author's name(s) and e-mail address(es). Joint submissions by students are acceptable, but the student making the presentation should be listed as first author. Papers and presentations should be aimed at a general computer science audience.Format: Papers should be formatted according to the ACM SIG Proceedings templates. You may omit the copyright notice and its block of space at the bottom of the first column. You may also use these class files, which have been modified from the original ACM format (the space at the bottom of the first column is removed and they print naturally onto letter size paper): ACM standard and alternate. Papers written in LaTeX should be compiled with pdflatex or pslatex for online readability. The printed proceedings will be in black-and-white, but color will be displayed in the electronic version.
In addition to considering technical merit, the Program Committee will select presentations that provide an interesting cross-section of the community. Papers submitted shortly after the deadline may be included in the proceedings, but will not necessarily be considered for presentation.
Please e-mail your abstract (Postscript or PDF only) to Gary Wassermann. Requests for further information should also be e-mailed to Gary Wassermann. More details will be available on the workshop home page.
Cover Design
We are also seeking designs and images for the cover of the printed proceedings that relate to computer science. Past images on the cover include an early encryption machine and an image from a visualization project demonstrating a new technique. All ideas are welcome. Please submit images (Postscript or PDF only) to Gary Wassermann. Note that the printed proceedings will be in black and white.Important Dates
Submission Deadline: AUGUST 14
