Draft slides for both tutorials and conference sessions MUST be provided with CfP submissions otherwise the submission will be rejected immediately. For work in progress, the most current information available at time of submission is acceptable.

All draft and complete slides must be submitted in PDF format only. Slides must be of original work, with all company confidential marks removed.

Any marketing, sales and vendor proprietary content in a presentation is against the spirit of APRICOT and it is strictly prohibited.

Note that proper credit must be given for all content taken from other sources. Evidence of plagiarism is grounds for rejection.

Final slides are to be provided by the specified deadline for publication on the APRICOT website.

Prospective presenters should note that the majority of speaking slots will be filled well before the final submission deadline. The PC may, at their discretion, retain a limited number of slots up to the final submission deadline for presentations that are exceptionally timely, important, or of critical operational importance. Every year we turn away submissions, due to filling up all available programme slots before the deadline. Presenters should endeavour to get material to the PC sooner rather than later.

Any questions or concerns should be addressed to the Programme Committee Chairs by e-mail at: pc-chairs at apricot.net

We look forward to receiving your presentation proposals.
