CALL FOR SPEAKERS -- JVM LANGUAGE SUMMIT, AUGUST 2015

We are pleased to announce the 2015 JVM Language Summit to be held at Oracle's Santa Clara campus on August 10-12, 2015. Registration is now open for speaker submissions (presentations and workshops) and will remain open until May 22, 2015. There is no registration fee for speakers.

The JVM Language Summit is an open technical collaboration among language designers, compiler writers, tool builders, runtime engineers, and VM architects. We will share our experiences as creators of both the JVM and programming languages for the JVM. We also welcome non-JVM developers of similar technologies to attend or speak on their runtime, VM, or language of choice.

Presentations will be recorded and made available to the public via the Oracle Technology Network.

This event is being organized by language and JVM engineers; no marketers involved! So bring your slide rules and be prepared for some seriously geeky discussions.

Format

The summit is held in a single classroom-style room to support direct communication between participants. About 80-100 attendees are expected.

As in previous years, we will divide the schedule between traditional presentations and "workshops." Workshops are informal, facilitated discussion groups among smaller, self-selected participants, and should enable deeper "dives" into the subject matter. If there is interest, there will also be impromptu "lightning talks." Traditional presentations (about 7 each day) will be given in a single track, while workshops (2–3 each day) will occur in parallel.

Instructions for Speaker Registration

If you'd like give a presentation or lead a workshop, please register as a Speaker and include a detailed abstract. There is no fee. You will be notified about whether your proposal has been accepted; if not, you will be able to register as a regular attendee.

For a successful presentation or workshop submission, please note the following:

We encourage speakers to submit both a presentation and a workshop; we will arrange to schedule the presentation before the workshop, so that the presentation can spark people's interest and the workshop will allow those who are really interested to go deeper into the subject area. Workshop facilitators may, but are not expected to, prepare presentation materials; in any case, they should come prepared to guide a deep technical discussion.
