[PRL] Fwd: [TYPES/announce] Call for short student talks @ POPL 2013

[David Van Horn]

PRL students should consider submitting a talk.  If you do, you should 
probably also apply for the mentoring workshop co-located with POPL that 
has a number of travel grants.

** Student Short Talk Session at POPL'13 **

Following prior years, POPL'13 will have two sessions devoted entirely 
to short student talks, with a best talk award determined by popular 
vote. All students attending POPL are strongly encouraged to 
participate, and our goal is to allow as many students as possible to 
present themselves and their work to the community.

Suitable topics for short talks are descriptions of work in progress, 
thesis projects, honours projects and relevant research being or to be 
published elsewhere.

The best talk will be determined by popular vote and announced at the 
end of POPL. Short presentations should fit in 10 minute slots and we 
will have a few minutes after each slot for questions. Submission 
instructions are found here:

	http://wrigstad.com/popl13/

Important Dates:

* Talk proposal submission deadline: 2012-12-21 (23:59 GMT)
* Notification of acceptance: 2012-12-31
* Student session: 2013-01-23 and 2013-01-25

Questions may be directed to

	Tobias Wrigstad (tobias.wrigstad at it.uu.se).

Acceptance Criteria

We strive to give as many students as possible a chance to present short 
talks at POPL'13. If we cannot accept all interested participants due to 
space or time constraints, we will primarily use seniority criteria 
rather than quality judgments to make decision about participation, and 
favour students not already presenting at POPL'13 or a co-located event 
over those who are.
