Fall 2004 Internet2 Member Meeting
Call for Demos
September 27-30, 2004
Hilton Austin
500 East 4th Street
Austin, TX 78701
The deadline for submissions has now passed.
Notification: Monday, June 28
Internet2 is soliciting advanced networking applications demonstrations
for the Fall 2004 Internet2
Member Meeting, which will be held at the Hilton
Austin hotel in Austin, Texas, 27-30 September. Internet2 university members,
corporate members, affiliate members, working groups, international partners,
and ITECs are all invited to participate in the demos. Applications from
all disciplines are welcome. The primary objective is that we showcase network-intensive
applications that demonstrate the reality and the potential of Internet2
environments. We're also interested in selecting several demos that can be
presented during Member Meeting track sessions.
Why Demo?
Over 80 Internet2 member institutions have participated in demonstrations
at Internet2-related events. Demos provide several opportunities, including:
- Demonstrating, to an international audience, the interesting applications
we have under development or in use.
- Engaging the interest and imagination of those who may develop their
own applications after seeing the demos.
- Giving the demonstrators an opportunity to show off their efforts and
to seek new partners and sponsors for their efforts.
Internet2 university members, corporate members, affiliate members, and
international partners are all invited to participate in the demos. We’d
also like to feature demos that showcase how Internet2 is enabling members
to find new methods of scientific communication, collaboration, and visualization—often
in partnership between U.S. researchers, faculty, students and their overseas
counterparts. Applications from all disciplines are welcome. The primary
objective is that we showcase network-intensive applications that demonstrate
the reality and the potential of Internet2 environments. Demos that illustrate
how Internet2 can facilitate technology transfer from the lab to the marketplace
are also welcome. To get an idea of the types of demos we’ve featured
at past events, refer to our demo
archive.
How to Submit Your Demo for Consideration
If you’re interested in demonstrating, please review the demonstration
criteria and complete the demo
submission form by Friday, June 11. We may approve the demos as they are
submitted, so earlier submissions are preferred.
Please Consider Presenting Also!
If you have a compelling research and education application, we are also looking
for speakers during the Member Meeting itself. We are interested in presentations
that talk about the problem to be solved, your approach to solving it, and
what you've learned. These applications do not need to be complete or fully
operational — demos of works in progress are also welcome.
