DASFAA 2009 - The DASFAA PhD workshop DASFAA 2009

DASFAA 2009 PhD Workshop


http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dasfaa09phd/

April 20, 2009, Brisbane,
Australia

==================================================================

The DASFAA PhD workshop aims to bring together PhD students working on topics related to the DASFAA conference series. The workshop will offer PhD students the opportunity to present, discuss, and receive feedback on their research in a constructive and international atmosphere.

We encourage PhD students to submit short papers describing their
doctorial work to this workshop. The paper should clearly formulate the research problem, detail the current solutions to this problem, explain why the existing
work is
not sufficient and the proposed work is significant in the field of
research,
and give some indication of new solutions the student is proposing. The
work
does not need to be complete, and PhD students at all stages are
welcome.
The submission is expected to be significantly different from any other
submissions by the authors. The first author of the submission must be a
student,
and the expected duration of the PhD thesis and the current stage of the
work have
to be indicated in the submission.

The first author of an accepted paper is expected to attend the
workshop, present
the paper and lead the discussion
