Abstract

Calling all speakers.


Virus Bulletin is seeking submissions from those wishing to present papers at VB2009, which will take place 23-25 September 2009 at the Crowne Plaza, Geneva, Switzerland.

The conference will include a programme of 40-minute presentations running in two concurrent streams: Technical and Corporate. Submissions are invited on all subjects relevant to anti-malware and anti-spam. In particular, VB welcomes the submission of papers that will provide delegates with ideas, advice and/or practical techniques, and encourages presentations that include practical demonstrations of techniques or new technologies.

The deadline for submission of proposals is Friday 6 March 2009. For full details of how to submit a paper, along with a list of topics suggested by attendees of VB2008, please see http://www.virusbtn.com/conference/vb2009/call/.

In addition to the 40-minute presentations, a portion of the technical stream will be set aside for 30-minute,'last-minute' technical presentations, proposals for which need not be submitted until three weeks before the start of the conference. Presenting a full paper will not preclude an individual from being selected to present a last-minute presentation. Further details will be released in due course.
