====== Call for Proposals for Tutorials ====== Proposals are solicited for tutorials to be organized in conjunction with ASPLOS-XV. Please keep in mind that the goal of tutorials is to educate the community on a new idea, practice, or tool, and that a major characteristic of the tutorials should be a high level of interactivity. Please choose the tutorial topics and format accordingly. Please send your tutorial proposals to [[kenmai@ece.cmu.edu|Ken Mai (CMU)]] before October 1, 2009, with the following information: - Title of the tutorial - Organizers, presenters, and their affiliations - Description of the main objectives of the tutorial, topics covered (and some related bibliography), the target audience, and prerequisite knowledge. - Expected duration of the tutorial; i.e., 1/2 day, full day, or 2 days - Expected tutorial format. i.e., talks, or talks + demo, etc. - If the tutorial was previously held, the location (i.e., which conference), date, and number of attendees at the last tutorial - Please answer the following two questions pointedly: * How/why would the tutorial be useful to the ASPLOS community? * What specific plans do you have to make the tutorial interactive?
