Call for Demos - ICTD 2016 The Eighth International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies and Development (ICTD2016), to be hosted at the University of Michigan from June 3-6, 2016 cordially invites proposals for demonstrations. ICTD2016 will provide an international forum for scholarly researchers to explore the role of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in social, political, and economic development. The demo session will provide students, researchers, and practitioners with an international audience for showcasing demonstrations of their work. The demo session will be given wide visibility and opportunities for interaction during the conference. Your demonstration may span novel hardware or software systems, or physical artifacts. Research projects, commercial tools, or government initiatives are all welcome. We particularly encourage engaging, interactive demos that demonstrate real world impact. While the topic for demonstrations may have been published previously, the demonstration itself should offer new insights and perspectives to the ICTD community. For consideration, an abstract of between 100-400 words describing the context, novelty, and significance of the demonstration must be submitted. Be as descriptive and precise as possible, detailing what exactly will be demonstrated. Also include the technical requirements for your demo (e.g., power, Internet access, space and other setup requirements). Each proposal should also include a demo title, as well as names, affiliations, and contact information for all authors. Demonstration proposals will be reviewed according to relevance to the conference. Accepted demonstration proposals will not be published in the conference proceedings, but will be listed as part of the conference program. The submission deadline is March 18, 2016. Authors will be notified on April 4, 2016. To submit a demo, use the following link: http://goo.gl/forms/EOEfNv0r3c Once accepted, at least, one author of the demonstration must register for the conference and present the demonstration during the conference. Authors of accepted contributions in other sections of the conference may also submit proposals for demonstrations.
