CALL FOR PAPERS - Andrew Technical Conference, September 21-22, 1995
The Andrew Consortium at Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer
Science is pleased to invite your contributions to
The 1995 Andrew Technical Conference
Theme: "Andrew and the Web"
The 1995 Andrew Technical Conference will showcase the Andrew User
Interface System (AUIS or Andrew) and the WorldWideWeb, both as
exclusive entities and as mutually-evolving vehicles, which improve your
ability to process information.
USING ANDREW AND THE WEB
This segment of the conference will focus on new Web-based enhancements
to Andrew. As so many have learned, Andrew's compound document
architecture and user-friendly interface provide the perfect tools for
users who more and more frequently access the Internet and the Web.
Andrew has served as the basis for creating applications to improve Web
access and usage. Add your invention to the list by submitting a paper
on the topic. Some of the invited talks will include:
A Guided Tour of Andrew on the Web
The Andrew Web Browser
Creating HTML Editors Using Andrew
Carnegie Mellon University and the Andrew Consortium are at the
forefront of developments on the Web so we have broadened the submission
specifications somewhat. Web articles need not directly utilize Andrew.
Besides your paper presentations, we are soliciting speakers on these
topics:
Searching the Web
Paying Electronically for Services on the Web
Planning Web Sites for Commercial, Governmental and Educational Use
Internet Security Issues on a User-Friendly Web
ANDREW AS A TOOL
In addition to Web topics, the conference invites papers on any aspect
of the Andrew User Interface System, including the Andrew Toolkit, the
Andrew Message System or the Andrew User Environment. We particularly
encourage submissions about research conducted and applications built
using Andrew. This is your opportunity to demonstrate the innovative
system that you have devised.
WELCOME LINUX USERS
We would like to extend a warm welcome to all Linux users out there.
Andrew is popping up on hundreds of Linux-based machines in many homes
and businesses. You have no doubt begun to find many new uses for the
system. Share your findings with us by submitting a paper on the
subject, or just attend this two-day event to learn more about Andrew.
