Participation Sought
For the ONC/NFS Technology Marketing and the ONC/NFS
Technology Engineering sessions, the ONC/NFS Vendors'
Group Conference seeks individuals interested in presenting
ONC/NFS topics to the intended audience. Interested persons
should submit a one page abstract describing their topics. Each
paper should be typewritten and double-spaced. The ONC/NFS
Vendor's Group Committee shall review each abstract,
selecting abstracts based on their originality, clarity and their
relevancy to ONC/NFS technology or the market. Submittors
should document their background and their experience with
ONC/NFS technology. Abstracts should be postmarked no later
than July 17, 1989; authors of accepted topics shall be notified
by July 31, 1989.
Speakers should limit their discussion length to a maximum of
30 minutes, and adjust their presentation depth according to
the audience's knowledge of and experience with the topic.
The ONC/NFS Vendors' Group Conference asks that
speakers refrain from making product pitches as product
promotions are generally ill-received by the audience and
detract from the Vendors' Group Conference's intent.
