Sorry for the cross posts We are opening a second call for short talks aimed at young researchers as well as beginning/ongoing projects. The deadline is August 31st 2013. This second call aims at offering the possibility * for “young” researchers to present ongoing work, first results, projects, specific tools to the community. By young researchers we mean beginning researchers, either young by their age (engaged in masters programmes or beginning a PhD) or young in research activities (academic, industrial or independent); * more generally for recent projects, ongoing research to present their ideas, call for contributions, present first results. Short talks will be given a 15 minutes timeslot each, plus 5 minutes for questions. **Authors are asked to propose a detailed abstract of their talk at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=botconf13 before August 31st 2013. Any documents to demonstrate the interest of the short talk are welcome to accompany the proposal.** Selected talks will be invited to propose short papers (4 pages) if they want to be published on the Conference website (and any publication that should be made). The paper should be prepared according to the “Authors Instruction for LNCS” formatting guidelines (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html), preferably using LaTeX or otherwise Word. Simple presentations without a research paper are also welcome. Accepted papers All accepted short talks will be included in the programme of the conference, with time slots 15 + 5 minutes. The programme and organising committees will consider requests from students whose papers are accepted for financial assistance in attending the conference (participation in the costs for travel and accommodation). Financial assistance might also be provided on a request basis by speakers demonstrating the need for that support and depending on the final budget of the conference. Logistical information for speakers: all accepted speakers (one speaker per paper or presentation) will be invited for the speaker dinner and have full access to the conference which will include coffee breaks, two lunches and reception dinner.
