address to nordsr@pdx.edu News of AEWG-46 Conference EventsMay 28, 2003 Email address correction: Unfortunately there
was an incorrect email address in the registration form. The correct email address for Joni Bauman is joni@pdx.edu
A corrected registration form can be found online at: http://www.cecs.pdx.edu/~nordsr/AEWG46/AEWG46Registration.pdf Call for Abstracts: The deadline (this is more of a target date, I will
be flexible if you keep me informed) for abstracts has been extended to Monday,
June 16, 2003. I would still like
to know by Monday, June 2 if you are planning on submitting an abstract.
PLEASE CONTACT ME regarding paper submissions. A short email would be
fine (nordsr@pdx.edu) My cell phone number is (503) 341-2363, remember I am on
Pacific Time. Abstracts should be sent to the technical program:
I will be sending a confirmation for all abstracts sent in by email. For all abstracts received by May 30th, I will send confirmation out on June 2nd; for those that are sent in by the June 16, expect a confirmation to be sent out on June 18th. Please look for the receipt, I would hate for any of the valuable contributions to AEWG-46 to be lost in cyberspace. AEWG Student Award: The first AEWG Student Award is now being judged. The
turnout was good; five entries were submitted. There are a lot of details for running the AEWG
Student Award that I have filled in over the course of this years competition.
In addition to documenting this year's procedure, I will be making
recommendations on how to better prepare for future competitions. Both are
topics for the AEWG business meeting. To help keep the business meeting on a
reasonable time schedule, I am requesting if you are interested and willing to
review my recommendations and comment on these before the AEWG meeting, please
send me an AEWG-46 Primer: The AEWG-46 conference primer will be held on Monday,
Aug 4, 2003. The lecturers scheduled for the primer will be Marvin Hamstad,
Stuart McBride, David Prine and H. Reginald Hardy and will be held in a video
conferencing classroom connected to a web-broadcast capable production studio.
The pre-conference example lecture experience live problems, but can be viewed
on the AEWG conference website. Social Events: "Willamette Star" cruise ship to be used
for the award banquet: This ship has enough space so that you can hold hands
with your sweetheart. There is a
capacity for 100 for dinner on the main deck with extra room upstairs with bar
and open deck. This is truly a
sweetheart friendly AEWG. A reminder that Donna will be hosting an Icebreaker
for conference guests on Morning of Tuesday, Aug 5 (while the rest of us are at
the conference). Post Conference Excursion. For Thursday, Aug 7. We have enough interest in
trying to put together an after conference excursion. The excursion would
consist of exclusively AEWG participants traveling through the Columbia River
Gorge (this is a beautiful river valley including some steep rock formations).
Stops at Multnomah Falls, Hood River (popular with wind surfers), perhaps
Bonneville Dam and of course beautiful Mt. Hood (Timberline Lodge) are planned.
This excursion will likely take 8 hours. The cost (excluding meals) will be
approximately $60 per person. There are restaurants at the stops. Donna will
need to know a couple of weeks before the conference. You can indicate this on
your conference registration form or contact Donna directly. For more information on the social program,
please contact Donna Koch directly: donna@cecs.pdx.edu,
(503) 260-7686, (503) 452-8529 (email preferred). |
