womENcourage 2016 – Crossing Borders

“A ship in port is safe, but that is not what ships are for. Sail out to sea and do new things.”
— Rear Admiral Grace Hopper

Join us in discussing how computer science and related disciplines can be such ships sailing out not only to explore new shores of knowledge but also crossing borders of societal challenges!

Key Note Speakers:

• Gerti Kappel, Technical University of Vienna
• Lynda Hardman, CWI Netherlands
• Gerhard Widmer, Johannes Kepler University, Linz

WomENcourage solicits posters from all areas of Computer Science. Posters offer the opportunity to engage with other conference attendees, disseminate research work, receive comments, practice presentation skills and benefit from discussing ideas with other researchers from the same field.
Submissions should present novel ideas, designs, techniques, systems, tools, evaluations, scientific investigations, methodologies, social issues or policy issues related to any area of computing.
Authors may submit original work or versions of previously published work. Posters are ideal for presenting early stage research. There will be two poster categories, one for undergraduate students and one for graduate (MSc and PhD) students.
