*** Deadline for papers is December 15th. *** We need *good* papers and *good* speakers for the area of User Support, Training and User Applications. Please consider submitting a paper - or encouraging a(nother) good speaker to do so. This is your chance to make sure the conference is of interest to you and your colleagues! The programme can only be as good as the papers it receives. This is a big conference. INET '93 had over 800 attendees. Please feel free to post this message on to suitable mailing lists within your own country. The full call for papers and information on paper submission is appended. Before that - I've pulled out the information on "Our area" and added some of my own thoughts on possible sessions within this track. These are not exhaustive. Papers on any related topic are welcome. Thanks for your help and support Jill Foster (INET User Support, Training and User Applications Track leader) >From Call for papers: 4. Support and Training for International Communities of Interest - Support of international collaboration - Globalization of user support services (including support for multiple languages and character sets in applications and information systems) - Access to scientific papers and data across national boundaries - Supercomputing - High energy physics, atmospheric modeling, and other scientific applications - Education/distance learning - Medical research and clinical applications - Libraries - Work and play in Cyberspace: How networks are changing the social nature of work and play - Networking and the arts - High payoff application areas to support national and international development - Tools for user education and training 5. User Information - Networked information retrieval - User documentation - Navigation services - Document delivery services - Library services Some sketchy ideas for possible sessions: 1. Building and Supporting Electronic Communities (Includes Distance Education & K-12) - training and support - innovative uses of network - User Communities experiences and requirements (incl. art community) - methodology 2. Electronic Publishing and Document Delivery This is an area I'd like to see some progress on this year. We need papers/tutorials on: - tools - editors - URN/URL etc? - SGML - practical experiences - publishers experiences - document delivery 3. NIDR: Towards The Virtual Library (Networked Information Discovery and Retrieval) WWW, gopher, WAIS etc Scalability (Mosaic/W3 etc) Other issues including Quality Information/Publishing and Libraries Novel uses of NIR tools. 4. Providing Integrated Access to the Network - integrating tools on the desk top - tools for personal information management 5. Training for the Network Citizen - teaching "safe networking" - training over the network - interactive Multi Media training 6. Panel+: User Help Thyself! Papers + panel sessions covering - Methods of spreading the support load - Empowering users to help themselves - Documentation Don't forget too that the Conference Committee welcomes proposals for demonstrations. So! Do think seriously about submitting a paper if you have real experience in any of the areas above.
