Dear ORMC'96 participant. The program for ORMC is now available on-line http://www.diku.dk/distlab/workshops/ormc96 (or ftp://www.diku.dk/diku/distlab/ormc96) FORMAT We have decided to have a format where two to three persons present their ideas and thereafter have some time for discussion. We have read the papers; there is a good deal of variation both with respect to size and complexity. We have tried to group the papers in a reasonable manner and have decided to allocate various amounts of time for each paper. TIME FOR PRESENTATION Please note that the time assigned is the total WALL CLOCK time, that is, it includes time for: * your being introduced * getting your slides ready * a few questions during or after your talk So be prepared for this! PLEASE ACK Please send an ack that you are actually coming and that you are actually going to present something to birger@diku.dk before Sept. 29th. Several papers have multiple authors; there is room for several more people in the room, so we have decided to accept multiple attendees per paper, but please inform birger@diku.dk asap, if you are sending more than one author. Also, please indicate who will actually be doing the presentation. PAPERS Birger and I cannot bring copies of all the papers to San Jose, so please bring 18 copies of your OWN paper to the workshop. REGISTRATION REQUIREMENT Please note that OOPSLA has the following requirements: "The workshop organizers and each workshop participant must be registered for the conference for the day of the workshop. OOPSLA does not provide honorariums for the organizers and the participants. OOPSLA does not pay hotel rooms for the organizers and the participants. OOPSLA does not provide lunch for the organizers and the participants. OOPSLA does not automatically register the workshop participants.
