To complement the main symposium programme FIS 2009 will hold a combined Poster and Demonstration session. The Poster/Demo Session is an opportunity for presenting late-breaking results, ongoing research projects, and speculative or innovative work in progress. Posters and demos are also intended to provide authors and participants with the ability to network with each other and to engage in technical discussions about the work. Technical posters, reports on Future Internet software systems, descriptions of completed work, and work in progress are all welcome. Demonstrations are intended to showcase innovative Future Internet related implementations and technologies.

Submission Information

Authors should submit a two-page (short) paper for evaluation. Submissions will be evaluated for acceptability by a set of reviewers. Decisions about acceptance will be based on relevance to the call, originality, potential significance, topic and clarity. A poster may be accompanied or replaced by a live software demonstration. Standalone demos (without a poster) are also acceptable. For demos the authors are requested to indicate any special technical requirements which need to be taken into account to show the demo at the event.
A detailed list of suggested topics can be found in the main call for papers for the Future Internet Symposium.
Authors submitting a full paper to another track in FIS 2009 may also submit the same work for consideration in the Demo/Poster track, either before or after result notification for the full paper. For example, a demo can be provided for an accepted paper, or a poster can be used to present work that was insufficiently mature for the research track.
At least one of the Poster/Demo authors must be a registered participant at the conference, and attend the Poster/Demo Session to present the work. The abstracts for all accepted posters and demos will be given to all conference attendees and published on the conference web site. They will not be included in the formal proceedings.
A best Poster/Demo award will be granted at the symposium. The selection of the winning participant will be through vote by the Demo and Poster session visitors.
