North American Transputer Users Group 1989 Fall Meeting Call For Papers - Further Details Many people have written to me in response to the "Call for Papers" for the NATUG2 meeting, asking what length, format, etc. is acceptable for abstracts. We would like for abstracts to fit on one single-spaced page; the format is not critical. The full papers will be (eventually) published in the meeting Proceedings, but the abstracts will form the bulk of the conference program. If you fell you need to submit a longer summary of your paper (or the complete paper) in addition to your abstract to aid us in making acceptance decisions, feel free to do so, but this is definitely not required! If you are planning to submit an abstract, it would be helpful to me if you could let me know via a quick email message so I have some idea how many submissions we need to deal with. To repeat the CFP: The 1989 Fall meeting of the North American Transputer Users Group will be hosted by Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, on October 18 and 19. Contributions are being solicited in the areas of hardware, software and applications. Presentations will be allotted 20 minutes each, with ample additional time for questions; this format will allow for approximately 25 talks. All accepted papers will appear in a published proceedings. Abstracts must be submitted by 15 July 1989. Notice of acceptance will be sent out by 15 August, and final drafts of accepted papers will be due by 15 September. Abstracts should be submitted to: Professor John Board, NATUG 2 Program Chair Electrical Engineering Dept. Duke University Durham, NC 27706 (919)684-3123 jab@dukee.egr.duke.edu Email submissions are preferred.
