consist of presentations in front of an audience. However, these presentations
will not be peer-reviewed and therefore not included in the conference
proceedings - although the submission of a technical paper on the software that
meets one of the conference themes is encouraged! To be eligible for a
presentation during the software demo sessions, the software must be a
commercial product or be freely available (on a web site for example).
Furthermore, the presenter must be a registered participant. Please note that
the scientific committee has the right to limit the number of software tools
being presented.</span></font></span><o:p></o:p></p>
