SUBMISSIONS


ETS’12 seeks original, unpublished contributions of the following types:

- Scientific papers for the Formal Proceedings, presenting novel and complete research work.
- Workshop-type papers for the Informal Digest, including ?emerging ideas? and ?case studies?.
- Proposals for panels, embedded tutorials, and other special sessions.
- Vendor presentations focusing on new features of test related products.
- Student work-in-progress presenting on-going and not yet complete work.
- Doctoral student contest is open for doctoral students in their final year.

Detailed submission instructions, including selection criteria and publication policies, for the various types of contributions are posted on the ETS’12 web page. The ETS’12 organizing committee also encourages the organization of fringe meetings and workshops. Visit ETS’12 web page at: http://ets2012.imag.fr for more information.

VENUE
====

Annecy is a magnificent, very rich and well preserved historical city located in french Northern Alps, at the crossroad of great routes from Italy to Geneva. From its dense history, Annecy has preserved some beautiful buildings which permanently enriched the heritage of the city. The Lake of Annecy becomes the symbol of the city, as well as Thion, a former industrial route that has become tourist attraction. Surrounded by impressive Aravis and Veryrier high altitude French Alpes, Annecy is nowadays an elegant and sophisticated lakeside resort with a pleasant port and beaches.
