2009 AaeE  Conference Update

For most of us every year seems to get busier and busier, and the idea of writing papers to deadlines seems to get harder and harder. Please, please, please however, don't let this stop you meeting the deadlines for this year's conference which (if you haven't heard by now is in Adelaide) promises to be an excellent finish to the year.

The conference web site is at: http://www.plevin.com.au/aaee2009/ and there are a number of important deadlines:

  • 8 May 2009 - Call for FULL papers, workshop proposals and conference registration
  • 24 July 2009 - Closing date for receipt of full papers
  • 30 August 2009 - Notification of editing requirements
  • 25 September 2009 - Early Bird registrations deadline
  • 25 September 2009 - Revised papers due

IF YOU HAVEN'T SUBMITTED AN ABSTRACT DON'T WORRY! Go straight to submitting a full paper. The abstract was merely to provide an indication of interest areas and suitability of ideas for papers for the conference.

Once again we are using 'Easy Chair' for the submission of papers, with a submission link on the website to take you to: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aaee09

There is also another 'Format Guidelines' link for the paper templates to http://www.plevin.com.au/aaee2009/aaee_paper_guide_2009.doc

The conference will also be collocated with the Engineering Math Conference EMAC. Details for this can be found at: http://www.maths.adelaide.edu.au/emac2009/

There will also be an Engineering Students Forum and so an opportunity to mix and mingle with Engineering students on the Sunday.

Adelaide is a beautiful place with a great variety of well kept secrets. Please visit http://www.southaustralia.com/ and think about extending your stay here.

I'm certainly looking forward to the year's end and registered early to get the best pick of the hotels and to make the most of the early bird members registration fee. I hope you all plan to do the same, and we (the organising committee) look forward to sharing a glass (or two) of Adelaide wine with you.
