BOB Conference 2018
"What happens when we use what's best for a change?"
http://bobkonf.de/2018/en/cfp.html
Berlin, February 23
Call for Contributions
Deadline: October 29, 2017
You are actively engaged in advanced software engineering methods,
implement ambitious architectures and are open to cutting-edge
innovation? Attend this conference, meet people that share your goals,
and get to know the best software tools and technologies available
today. We strive to offer a day full of new experiences and
impressions that you can use to immediately improve your daily life as
a software developer.
If you share our vision and want to contribute, submit a proposal for
a talk or tutorial!
Topics
------
We are looking for talks about best-of-breed software technology, e.g.:
- functional programming
- persistent data structures and databases
- types
- formal methods for correctness and robustness
- abstractions for concurrency and parallelism
- metaprogramming
- probabilistic
programming
- math and programming
- controlled side effects
- beyond REST and SOAP
- effective abstractions for data analytics
- ... everything really that isn’t mainstream, but you think should be.
Presenters should provide the audience with information that is
practically useful for software developers.
We’re especially interested in experience reports. But this could also
take other forms, e.g.:
- introductory talks on technical background
- overviews of a given field
- demos and how-tos
Requirements
------------
We accept proposals for presentations of 45 minutes (40 minutes talk +
5 minutes questions), as well as 90 minute tutorials for
beginners. The language of presentation should be either English or
German.
Your proposal should include (in your presentation language of choice):
- an abstract of max. 1500 characters.
- a short bio/cv
- contact information (including at least email address)
- a list of 3-5 concrete ideas of how your work can be applied in a developer’s daily life
- additional material (websites, blogs, slides, videos of past presentations, ...)
