EclipseCon France call for papers: we want cool stuff! EclipseCon France call for papers: we want cool stuff!

If you are part of the Eclipse community at large, you cannot ignore that the Call for Papers for EclipseCon France is opened, and the deadline is approaching.
Monday 8th is the deadline if you want a chance to have your talk put in the spotlight as one of the early bird picks made by the PC. Final deadline being Monday April, 15th.

We already have a good deal of submissions, but I strongly encourage you not to wait until the last minute for submitting your talk.
I am particularly interested in getting more proposals around Mobile and Web development using Eclipse, M2M, as well as anything that you think is cool – really! I am actually convinced that if you think your topic is cool, there is a very good chance the Program Committee will too!

Don’t wait any longer and submit your talk NOW! 🙂

Only one month left to submit your talk for EclipseCon France!Only one month left to submit your talk for EclipseCon France!

EclipseCon France 2013

EclipseCon NA is just around the corner and I know many of you speakers are busy as bees polishing your presentation ; and even if you don’t speak, you are probably already starting to prepare your schedule and make the final travel arrangements.

BUT! The submission deadline for EclipseCon France is fast approaching, and you don’t want to miss the opportunity of speaking in beautiful Toulouse at the beginning of June!

While we are of course open to all the cool ideas you may have and that you think would be interesting for a crowd of open-source and Eclipse aficionados, we are especially looking for submissions on the following themes:

  • Eclipse in the Industry – We all know that Eclipse is a great platform for building industry solutions. Whether you are doing modeling, OSGi, embedded, … I am sure you have feedback to share about deploying Eclipse, and open-source technologies in the context of automotive, aerospace, …
  • Community and business models – The European ecosystem is flourishing of individuals and companies who use open-source on a daily basis to build real-life applications. Come and share your experience in establishing business models for open-source based software, and creating a sound community of adopters and contributors to your technology.
  • Mobile and Web Development – With the (not-so) recent Javascript renaissance, and the always growing ecosystem of web and mobile frameworks, we thought it would be worth a dedicated track. Therefore, we are really looking forward to hearing what you have to share when it comes to using Eclipse in this context.

We are trying a new format for tutorials this year. We want them to be advanced sessions, where participants who already know about a given technology can learn more advanced techniques, with specific usecases in mind.
Workshops are 2-hours long, so you really want to work on making a sharp proposal that will convince the Programm Committee your talk will be giving the most to its participants! 🙂

So don’t wait any longer, and submit a talk –or several!– NOW!

Eclipse Day Toulouse 2012 – May 24, 2012 – Call for papersEclipse Day Toulouse 2012 – 24 mai 2012 – Appel à conférences

After the success of Eclipse Party 2011 last year, the Eclipse Foundation, Airbus, Obeo and Sierra Wireless invite you to Eclipse Day Toulouse, on May 24, 2012.

This year, we will have a full day event, with a particular focus on two topics for which Eclipse is an ecosystem of choice: embedded world, and Machine-to-Machine (M2M).

You should start thinking submitting your talk if you have interesting thoughts to share about:

  • Embedded & Modeling for embedded. Modeling technologies have a proven track record in terms of embedded and critical software development. Coupled with other tools and frameworks (ALM, requirements management, code analysis, …), they turn out to change the way software is being developed in the industry, and how it is being supported (usually for years, in e.g. the aircraft industry).
  • M2M & Internet of Things. According to analysts, there will literally be tens of billions of connected objects by the end of 2020! This proves to be a challenge in terms of new software engineering needs, of scalibility (Cloud computing and SaaS anyone? ;)), of management of these huge fleets of “objects” on the field… There are also many new use cases and business models around M2M and IoT that can, and will, benefit from Open Source ecosystems.

If you’d like to share an industrial use case, talk about a project you are working on, or anything related to these topics, you should submit your abstract by Apr. 15, 2012.

More information on the wiki page of the event…  and I am now looking forward to your proposals!

Cette année, l’évènement se déroulera sur une journée entière, et se focalisera plus particulièrement sur deux sujets pour lesquels Eclipse est une plateforme de premier choix : l’embarqué, et le Machine-to-Machine (M2M).
Aussi, nous vous invitons à soumettre dès aujourd’hui, vos propositions de sujets, en ciblant de préférence les thématiques suivantes:

  • Embarqué, et Modeling pour l’embarqué. Les approches MDA/MDD ont prouvé leur efficacité dans le domaine du développement de logiciel embarqué. Couplées à des outils de gestion des exigences, d’analyse de code, de simulation, … elles changent la donne dans le domaine du développement de logiciel industriel, et dans la manière dont ce logiciel est maintenu, souvent sur des périodes de plusieurs dizaines d’années.
  • M2M et Internet of Things. Les analystes s’accordent à dire que d’ici 2020, plusieurs dizaines de milliards d’objets seront connectés, plus ou moins indirectement, entre eux ! Cette perspective ouvre la porte à de nombreux défis en terme de développement, de scalabilité (qui a dit Cloud ? ;)), de gestion de flottes importantes “d’objets”… Ce sont aussi de nombreux business models jusqu’alors inaccessibles qui voient désormais le jour, et pour lesquels l’approche Open Source peut clairement rebattre les cartes.

Si vous souhaitez faire un retour d’expérience, présenter un projet sur lequel vous travaillez, ou quelque chose en relation avec ces sujets, nous attendons vos soumissions avant le 15 avril 2012.
