CALL FOR Participation

The Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing 2004 is a technical conference featuring invited keynote and technical speakers, panels, workshops, presentations, new investigator technical papers, PhD forums, technical posters, and birds of a feather sessions (BOFs). The speakers are leaders in their respective fields, representing industrial, academic, and government communities. The theme of the Fifth Grace Hopper Celebration is Making History, celebrating the impact of women – past, present, and future – on computing.

As in years past, submissions on both technical and professional topics are welcomed. The Grace Hopper Program Committee is especially encouraging technical submissions (panels, workshops, new investigator papers, posters, and BOF sessions) that cross disciplines and other boundaries. Authors are invited to submit proposals electronically. The requirements and deadlines for submission vary with the category (click on each item below for more detailed information).
