=================================== EuroScipy 2011 - Deadline Extended! =================================== Deadline extended! You can submit your contribution until Friday May 13. --------------------------------------------- The 4th European meeting on Python in Science --------------------------------------------- **Paris, Ecole Normale Supérieure, August 25-28 2011** We are happy to announce the 4th EuroScipy meeting, in Paris, August 2011. The EuroSciPy meeting is a cross-disciplinary gathering focused on the use and development of the Python language in scientific research. This event strives to bring together both users and developers of scientific tools, as well as academic research and state of the art industry. Main topics =========== - Presentations of scientific tools and libraries using the Python language, including but not limited to: - vector and array manipulation - parallel computing - scientific visualization - scientific data flow and persistence - algorithms implemented or exposed in Python - web applications and portals for science and engineering. - Reports on the use of Python in scientific achievements or ongoing projects. - General-purpose Python tools that can be of special interest to the scientific community. Tutorials ========= There will be two tutorial tracks at the conference, an introductory one, to bring up to speed with the Python language as a scientific tool, and an advanced track, during which experts of the field will lecture on specific advanced topics such as advanced use of numpy, scientific visualization, software engineering... Keynote Speaker: Fernando Perez =============================== We are excited to welcome Fernando Perez (UC Berkeley, Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, USA) as our keynote speaker. Fernando Perez is the original author of the enhanced interactive python shell IPython and a very active contributor to the Python for Science ecosystem. Important dates =============== Talk submission deadline: Sunday May 8 Program announced: Sunday May 29 Tutorials tracks: Thursday August 25 - Friday August 26 Conference track: Saturday August 27 - Sunday August 28 Call for papers =============== We are soliciting talks that discuss topics related to scientific computing using Python. These include applications, teaching, future development directions, and research. We welcome contributions from the industry as well as the academic world. Indeed, industrial research and development as well academic research face the challenge of mastering IT tools for exploration, modeling and analysis. We look forward to hearing your recent breakthroughs using Python! Submission guidelines ===================== - We solicit talk proposals in the form of a one-page long abstract. - Submissions whose main purpose is to promote a commercial product or service will be refused. - All accepted proposals must be presented at the EuroSciPy conference by at least one author. The one-page long abstracts are for conference planing and selection purposes only. We will later select papers for publication of post-proceedings in a peer-reviewed journal.
