ADHOC 2005 Call For Papers
Following up on an exciting and successful MacWorld San Francisco, The Advanced Developers Hands On Conference (ADHOC) is announcing the Call For Papers for ADHOC 2005/MacHack 20. ADHOC focuses on, but is not limited to, Macintosh and Unix development issues. Abstracts for papers must be received by March 15, 2005 by the conference papers committee for consideration.
Have you done interesting work you would like to tell others about? Many new things are happening in the world of computing, from low cost supercomputing to new OS releases. New programming languages and tools are always showing up and need good discussion. New or expanded techniques used in code development can be shared and expanded on for the good of the software community.
Possible topics for this year's ADHOC include:
- New development in Apple's Tiger version of Mac OS X. (Slated to ship before ADHOC.)
- Game and video techniques
- Cross-platform development
- AltiVec (aka Velocity Engine)
- Code profiling and optimization
- Scripting languages
- Power tools for power programmers
Why should you write a paper?
Paper authors do not pay the conference registration fee (US$575). You must give a presentation of your paper during the conference, which enables everyone to realize just how cool your topic really is. Copies of the papers are included on the conference CD.
Papers usually range from 2000 to 4000 words or 8-15 pages in length. Once your abstract is accepted, we will provide you with a document template for formatting your paper. Since the ADHOC audience is technically oriented, pure marketing topics or content are unlikely to be well received. Paper acceptance is at the sole discretion of the papers committee, not all submissions of acceptable topics will be accepted for publication and presentation at the conference.
Contact the papers committee at papers2005@adhocconference.com and check the ADHOC Conference website for papers from previous years at http://www.ADHOCConference.com/papers/.
