======================================================================================= ** Call for Contributions ** Posters and Demos Session 28th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling (ER2009) November 9-12, 2009, Gramado, Brazil ** Deadline Extended ** ======================================================================================= Conference Web Site: http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/ER2009/ Submissions: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=erpd09 ** NOW OPEN ** The ER conference is a premier conference in conceptual modeling. This year, the scientific program includes a session for the presentation of posters and demos. The ER2009 Posters and Demos session is an exciting and highly interactive way to demonstrate conceptual modeling research, and an excellent way to advertise the applicability of the results. Proposals should be focused on new conceptual modeling developments, advances in applying conceptual modeling, or innovative use of conceptual modeling techniques. The session is focused on academic and research software, and it is not intended for the demonstration of commercial products. IMPORTANT DATES Proposal Submission: July 6, 2009 ** DEADLINE EXTENDED ** Notification: August 3, 2008 Camera-ready papers: August 17, 2008 SUBMISION GUIDELINES All submitted proposals must be formatted according to the instructions for submission format for research submissions. Poster proposals must be no more than two (2) pages long and demos proposals must be no more than four (4) pages long. These page limits include all parts of the paper: title, abstract, body, and bibliography. In both cases, accepted proposals will appear in the final proceedings of the main conference but will be only two pages long.
