[Celinux-dev] Embedded Linux Conference 2007 - call for sessions

[Tim Bird]

The CE Linux Forum would like to invite you to make a presentation
at our upcoming Embedded Linux Conference. The conference will be
held April 17, 18 and 19 in San Jose, California. (See
http://tree.celinuxforum.org/CelfPubWiki/EmbeddedLinuxConference2007
for general information about the conference.)

= Guidelines =
Presentations should be of a technical nature, covering topics
related to use of Linux in embedded systems. The CE Linux Forum
is focused on the use of Linux in consumer electronics products,
but presentations may cover use of Linux in practically any embedded
area, as long as the topic is of general relevance to most
embedded developers.

Presentations that are commercial advertisements or sales
pitches are not appropriate for this conference.

Presentations on the following topics are encouraged:
    * Audio, Video, and Graphics systems for embedded products
    * Security
    * System size
    * Bootup time
    * Meeting real-time constraints
    * Power management
    * Streaming media
    * Flash memory devices and filesystems
    * Technologies related to cell phones, digital settop
      boxes, handheld devices, or other CE products
    * Development tools for embedded users
    * Use of Linux in actual products, practical experience and
      war stories
    * Standards for CE products

Most presentation slots are 50 minutes long, including time for
questions. A few shorter 40-minute slots are also available.

A paper submission is NOT required in conjunction with the presentation.
However, if a paper is produced, it is requested to be published in
wiki format on the Embedded Linux Wiki (coming soon).

You may also submit a request to present a tutorial. Tutorials are
intended to be longer, interactive learning sessions. A tutorial may
occupy more than one session slot at the conference.

We prefer presentations that have not been previously presented, but
exceptions will be made for material that is either of great interest,
or has been seen previously only by a limited audience.

A single person may submit more than one proposal. However, since
the number of slots is limited, it is likely that at most one
proposal from an individual will be accepted.

For examples of presentations from previous years' conferences, see:

and

a proposal, are at:
