Submission Format
Attendees will come from mixed backgrounds and interests in interconnection networks. We encourage tutorials of broad applicability rather than those focusing solely on research in a limited domain or by a particular group. Areas of interest for tutorials include but are not limited to the list at left.
The submission should include a single PDF file with the following
sections, each beginning on a separate page:
- Title page including the following components:
- Title
- Name, organization, and email address of each author
- 200-word (maximum) abstract
- (Optional) A URL with samples of your visual aids
- Description of the tutorial content (1 page maximum) containing:
- Goals of the tutorials (takeaways for the audience)
- Why is it relevant for HOTI 2024 attendees?
- Target audience
- Content level: beginner, intermediate, or advanced
- Previous presentations of this tutorial including any differences in the proposed tutorial
- Detailed outline of the tutorial (2 pages maximum)
- Resume or curriculum vitae for each presenter (2 presenters maximum, 1 page maximum each)
- A statement agreeing to release the notes to HOTI 2024 tutorial attendees
Review Process and Publication
Tutorial submissions will be reviewed by the Hot Interconnects 2024 tutorials committee. The committee will consider, among other aspects, appropriateness and utility for the Hot Interconnects tutorial audience, timeliness and general interest, clarity, completeness, cohesiveness of the proposal and presentation history and teaching/speaking experience of the presenters.
All materials must be submitted to the tutorials chair by May 27th and will be released to the attendees. Submitters must explicitly
agree to release the materials for this purpose.
Safety and Well Being
Given the success of previous year’s online format, Hot Interconnects 2024 will continue to be an online conference..
