All graduate students from every university and stage of the degree program are invited to submit 3 page position papers to spark lively discussions at the student only event (no advisors allowed!). The web site also claims the following:<br /><br /><blockquote><div align="justify">The primary goal of the Forum is to foster community and expose possibilities for inter-disciplinary collaborations by providing an opportunity for students researching various dimensions of software and information technology to come together, meet, interact, and discuss their activities with a diverse group of their peers. Specific areas of interest are listed below, but generally fall in the broader categories of software engineering, human-computer interaction, ubiquitous computing, social computing, and arts computation and engineering.<br /><br />Participating students will receive valuable feedback useful in shaping their current research and informing their future research activities. To further promote interaction, we will also be hosting a competition for "Best Inter-Disciplinary Project Idea" among all participants and attendees focusing on the formulation of novel research directions.</div></blockquote><br /><br />Submissions are still being accepted! It's sure to be a wild and crazy time.
