Hi,
Ed and I are organizing the Modeling Symposium for EclipseCon North
America (see below). Thanks for all the interesting submissions so far.
To notify people early enough about the acceptance of their submission,
we need to set a final deadline to February 8th. Please make sure to
send me your submission before this deadline.
Looking forward to your submissions!

Hi,
Ed and I are organizing the Modeling Symposium for EclipseCon North
America. It is scheduled for the first day of the conference, i.e.,
Monday, March 23rd at 1pm. The symposium aims to provide a forum for
community members to present a brief overview of their work. We offer 10
minute lightning slots (including questions) to facilitate a broad range
of speakers. The primary goal is to introduce interesting, new
technological features. This targets mainly projects which are otherwise
not represented at the conference. Additionally we offer a number of 1
minute “teaser slots” (no slides, no questions) for advertising other
conference sessions.
If you are interested in giving a talk, please send a short description
(a few sentences) to jhelming@eclipsesource.com. Depending on the
number, we might have to select among the submissions. Please adhere to
the following guidelines:
* Topics presented in other sessions during the conference should
only be proposed as teasers.
* Please provide sufficient context. Talks should start with a
concise overview of what the presenter plans to demonstrate, or what a
certain framework offers. Even more important, explain how and why this
is relevant.
* Do not bore us! Get to the point quickly. You do not have to use
all your allocation. An interesting 3 minute talk will have a bigger
impact than a boring 10 minute talk. We encourage you to plan for a 5
minute talk, leaving room for 5 minutes of discussion.
* Keep it short and sweet, focus on the most important aspects. A
conference offers the major advantage of getting in contact with people
who are interested in your work. So consider the talk more as a teaser
to prompt follow-up conversations than a forum to demonstrate or discuss
technical details in depth.
* A demo is worth a thousand slides. We prefer to see how your
stuff works rather than be told about how it works with illustrative
slides. Please restrict the slides to summarize your introduction or
conclusion.
Looking forward to your submissions!
Jonas
