Call for last-minute technical papers

Submissions invited for technical 'turbo' talks at VB Geneva.

Virus Bulletin is seeking submissions from those wishing to present last-minute technical papers at VB2009.

The VB conference includes a programme of 40-minute presentations running in two concurrent streams: Technical and Corporate, covering topics that include in-the-cloud technologies, anti-spam testing, automated analysis, rogue security software, web threats, JavaScript security, online fraud, legal issues and more. The full schedule can be seen here.

In addition to the 40-minute presentations, a portion of the technical stream has been set aside for last-minute technical presentations. The last-minute papers are shorter speaking slots (30 minutes) and intended to provide the opportunity for presenters to speak on up-to-the-minute topics. As such, the papers will be selected just 18 days prior to the conference start.

The last-minute presentations will be selected by a committee consisting of members of the VB advisory board, with the schedule announced two weeks prior to the conference.

The deadline for submissions is 28 August 2009.

More details, including a link to the online submission form can be found here.

VB2009 takes place 23-25 September 2009 at the Crowne Plaza hotel in Geneva, Switzerland. Click here to register.
