Call for Papers - UK AUA Conference 2013

The UK Actian Users Association Conference 2013 will take place in London on Tuesday 11th June.

We invite those working with Actian products who would like to present at the conference to submit an outline/abstract for a 40 minute presentation, for consideration by the selection committee.

Topics may relate to any products in Actian’s range. As Actian evolves to expand their product and technology set, so the UK AUA seeks to grow too; as well as considering papers involving established Actian products, such as Vectorwise, OpenROAD and Ingres, we'd like to hear from users of Versant or Pervasive technologies too.

The afternoon breakout sessions are a key feature of the annual UK AUA conference, when users and technologists from the UK and beyond share their wealth of knowledge and expertise, through interesting and informative presentations, with a receptive and like-minded audience. Last year 20 breakout sessions covered topics including product roadmaps, fast data loading techniques, Unicode, Geospatial functions, deploying OpenROAD apps on a variety of platforms, improving stability - and many others.

Help us to make the event a continued success, by submitting a short abstract for your presentation. It's not necessary to have a complete presentation prepared at this stage.

Please send your submission to papers2013@uk-iua.org.uk, before Monday 15th April 2013.

Notifications of selected papers will be sent by 10th May.

If you have any questions, the UK AUA committee are happy to help. Please send any queries to info@uk-iua.org.uk.

AUA 2012 Success

Jun
20

The feedback from most of the attendees I spoke to was that AUA 2012 was one of the best yet with a really good feel about it.  Attendance was up by exactly 50%, which was the limit of what we could cater for; we had a really engaging (and visually lush) keynote address from the Guardian's Simon Rogers that really set the tone for the event, and John Barron from the Irish Revenue Commissioners did an outstanding job as a witty but efficienbt MC for the day.  Anyone who missed the conference really missed a treat this year.  There was lots of technical content, some important announcements a
