ACM DEBS 2012 - First Call for Papers

=====================================================================

                   DEBS2012
6th ACM International Conference on Distributed Event-Based Systems
                July 16-20, 2012
    Freie Universitaet Berlin, Berlin, Germany

=====================================================================

The objectives of the 6th ACM International Conference on Distributed
Event-Based Systems (DEBS) are to provide a forum dedicated to the
dissemination of original research, the discussion of practical insights,
and the reporting of relevant experience relating to event-based computing
that was previously scattered across several scientific and professional
communities. The conference also aims at providing a forum for academia and
industry to exchange ideas, for example, through industry papers and demo
papers.

DEBS 2012 Tracks
================

The conference will consist of the following tracks:

- Research track featuring high quality research paper on relevant topics.
- Industry track with two sub-tracks: industry full papers and industry
experience reports.
- Tutorials geared towards either the research or the industrial
communities.
- Demos and posters.
- The DEBS 2012 Grand Challenge is a problem solving competition for
commercial and research event-based systems.
- Gong show: The gong show will consist of short presentations about
visionary and outrageous ideas towards the next generation of event-based
systems. The audience will vote for the best idea.
- Doctoral workshop
