CALL FOR PAPERS – DEMO SESSIONS

PRESENTATION AND OBJECTIVES

Topics of Interest

Proposals Submissions

Tools must be presented in a paper to be submitted electronically only through the JEMS (https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/home.cgi?c=2669) system. Papers can be written in Portuguese or English and submitted only in PDF format. Each item is limited to 8 pages including abstract (and an english abstract, for papers in Portuguese), figures, diagrams, references and appendices. Papers should be formatted following SBC papers templates.

The paper should contain the following information:

1. Description and motivation of the problem addressed by the tool;
2. Solution architecture and description of the main features;
3. URL where the tool is available (the source with this license must present this URL, not just the binary);
4. URL manuals and documentation tool;
5. Description of the demonstration planned for SBRC informing equipment necessary to do so.

This information, as well as the actual existence of specified URLs, are indispensable for the evaluation of the work.

In 2016, the authors could indicate in the article a URL with a video explaining the installation and the functionalities of the tool. The video’s aim is to assist reviewers and readers who for any reason have difficulty in installation. We realized that the idea of the video was well accepted by both reviewers and authors. Therefore, in 2017, even if still optional, we strongly recommend that all authors make available a video of the tool. We recommend using a free website to upload videos to youtube or vimeo.

Tool Requirements

The Demo Session focuses on experimental data and systems / functional tools available for use. Although work is accepted in progress, it should be possible for them to be demonstrated and be available in a URL along with their documentation, at paper submission.

All accepted tools should be demonstrated in stands and also presented in the conventional format of techniques SBRC sessions.

Evaluation

The evaluation process will take into account the quality, relevance and innovation of the practical results, its documentation, the submitted paper and the statement proposed to the SBRC 2017 Demo Session.

Among accepted tools, the best will be selected by a specific committee.
