Systems Summer School. Tutors are encouraged to submit a 1-page
course proposal including: the topic and its importance for the
field, intended audience and their required background knowledge,
outline of the topics to be presented, how the course material will
be prepared, the tutors and their experience, level of the course
(beginners/advanced), duration (typically 4 or 6 hours), and any
special equipment requirements. Proposals will be evaluated based on
the importance and quality of the topic description, the quality of
the presentation material, and the teaching ability of the proposed
speakers.

Deadline for proposals:         January 18, 2008
Notification:                   February 4, 2008
material for reader (< 26 pp)   March 23, 2008

Courses should be broad enough to provide a general introduction to
the chosen topic, but it should also cover the most important
contributions in depth. Courses are expected to take a wider
perspective than one specific approach practised by an individual
or group.

Submissions should be sent to Mehdi Dastani (mehdi at cs.uu.nl).
