IPCWorks '99 offers time slots of 30 minutes and one hour. Some papers may be grouped together in a forum for panel discussion. Stand-alone free forums and round table discussions are also encouraged. Half-day and full-day workshops will also be considered.
Presentation materials and papers must be non-commercial in nature, focusing on technology rather than a company's product. It is mandatory to provide a print-quality paper or hard copies of visuals for the conference proceedings in order to deliver an oral presentation. The deadline to submit abstracts for presentations is June 1, 1999.
