Deadline for paper submission: September 25, 2018 Notification of acceptance: October 12, 2018 Camera-ready due: October 25, 2018 More informations at: [ http://2018.middleware-conference.org/index.php/call-for-doctoral-symposi... | http://2018.middleware-conference.org/index.php/call-for-doctoral-symposi... ] ========================================== Call for Demos and Posters Middleware 2018 will provide a forum for live software demonstrations of middleware applications, systems, and tools. Demos could take a wide and open-ended variety of forms. Typical examples include: (i) presentation of an application that leverages advanced middleware concepts, (ii) working through coding of an example on a novel middleware platform, or (iii) real-time visualizations of middleware system metrics under simulated workloads. Although the form may vary, demo presenters should take advantage of not being constrained by the format of a traditional slide presentation. Demos are encouraged for both early prototypes and mature technology. Posters will provide an opportunity for conference attendees to learn about innovative work in progress and to preview late-breaking research results. Poster sessions will provide an informal setting for presenters to communicate ideas or results and also to collect feedback from attendees. Demo or poster contributions are solicited in all areas of middleware research and applications. For a list of applicable topics, please consider those from the call for papers.
