The Organising Committee would like to invite delegates to submit proposals for contributed papers that fall within the theme of the Workshop, for either oral or poster presentation.

Abstracts must be submitted in English, may not exceed 250-300 words and must reach the Secretariat not later than 31 March 2009.

Please note: The extended deadline for the submission of abstracts has passed. However, further abstracts for POSTER presentations will still be accepted up to 30 June 2009. Please submit any outstanding abstracts to the Secretariat as soon as possible.

Abstracts will be reviewed by the international Programme Committee and authors will be notified whether their papers have been accepted for oral or poster presentations.

Please note that no papers will be included in the programme unless full payment for the speaker has been received by 31 July 2009.

Since the number of participants will be limited, and interest in the conference is high, early registration is very advisable.

A selection of invited papers will be published in book form.

Oral papers: The exact format for papers as well as the length of the talks will be published at a later stage. Please check the website regularly.

Posters: The exact format for posters will be published at a later stage. Please check the website regularly.

Abstracts may be submitted to the Secretariat by mail or, preferably, by e-mail. Abstracts for all contributed papers must reach the Secretariat by 21 April 2009.

Electronic submission of abstracts will be accepted in the following formats only:

• MS-Word (preferred)
• WordPerfect
• TeX or LaTeX
• plain text (ASCII)

For e-mail submissions, plain text, TeX, or LaTeX files can be sent in the body of the e-mail or as attachments, while the WP and Word files must be sent as attachments.
