We'd love some Clojure submissions!
================================================================================
BOB Conference 2022
"What happens when we use what's best for a change?"
http://bobkonf.de/2022/cfc.html
Berlin, Mar 11
Call for Contributions
Deadline: December 6, 2021
================================================================================
You are actively engaged in advanced software engineering methods,
solve ambitious problem with software 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!
NOTE: The conference fee will be waived for presenters. Travel
expenses will not be covered (for exceptions see "Speaker Grants").
Online or Onsite
----------------
We expect we'll be able to hold BOB 2022 in Berlin. If that is not
possible, we'll make BOB a successful online event, like BOB
2021. Should BOB happen online, we will likely ask for pre-recorded
talks to make room for questions and social interactions during the
actual conference day. (Of course, we'll provide assistance making
those recordings.) Tutorials will likely happen as a live-session.
Shepherding
-----------
The program committee offers shepherding to all speakers. Shepherding
provides speakers assistance with preparing their
sessions. Specifically:
- advice on structure and presentation
- review of talk slides
- assistance with recording
- review of recording, if applicable
Speaker Grants
--------------
BOB has Speaker Grants available to support speakers from groups
under-represented in technology. We specifically seek women speakers,
speakers of color, and speakers who are not able to attend the
conference for financial reasons.
Topics
------
We are looking for talks about best-of-breed software technology, e.g.:
- functional programming
- persistent data structures and databases
- event-based modelling and architecture
- "fancy types" (dependent types, gradual typing, linear types, ...)
- formal methods for correctness and robustness
- abstractions for concurrency and parallelism
- metaprogramming
- probabilistic programming
- math and programming
- controlled side effects
- program synthesis
- next-generation IDEs
- 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.
Challenges
----------
Furthermore, we seek contributions on successful approaches for
solving hard problems, for example:
- bias in machine-learning systems
- digital transformation in difficult settings
- accessibiltity
- systems with critical reliability requirements
- ecologically sustainable software development
We're especially interested in experience reports.
Other topics are also relevant, 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, …)
- Don't be confused: The system calls a submission event.
Organisation
------------
- Direct questions to contact at bobkonf dot de
- Proposal deadline: December 6, 2021
- Notification: December 17, 2021
- Program: December 22, 2021
