DEBS 2011 calls are finalized

DEBS 2011 calls have been now finalized and can be found on the DEBS 2011 website.  The calls are for the traditional tracks -- research track, industrial track, tutorials, demos, PhD workshop (still TBD).
The new tracks in DEBS 2011 are:

• DEBS challenge:   this will consist of an event processing application with a call for demonstration of its implementation in various approaches; this is targeted to commercial and non commercial implementations, the non commercial implementations will be able to participate in a competition where the major criterion will be ease of use.
• Gong show:  participants will have 5 minutes to present new ideas - both research idea, and interesting kind of usage in event-based systems and technologies.  The audience will vote the best idea.
• The industrial track will have an "experience reports" sub-track, that will not require submission of papers, but abstracts only. 

Note that there are four committed keynote speakers.     I'll follow the progress of DEBS 2011 in this blog.
