Dear all, Historically, Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) was one of the first reimplementation of the UNIX AT&T platform and it later became one of the key components of the Open Source movement. BSD has been the base for many different operating systems, most notably FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Darwin, and DragonFlyBSD, which are extensively used in many different areas like embedded applications, workstations and large Internet servers. The 5th European BSD conference is the 2006 event held in European continent where developers can meet, share new ideas and show off the progress of their work. It is also a great place for business players to get in touch with the BSD products and the people behind them. The conference comprises one day (Nov 10th) dedicated to tutorials and two days (Nov 11-12th) for technical sessions. *** Call For Tutorials *** In the first day different tutorial sessions will be held focusing on real-world scenarios and problem-solving.

If you're interested in presenting a tutorial, please contact the Program Committee at pc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx *** Call For Papers *** The subsequent days will be dedicated to technical speeches about BSD related topics. Authors are invited to submit original and innovative papers about the applications, architecture, implementation, performance and security of BSD-derived operating systems. Topics of interests include but are not limited to: - Deployment and development of embedded BSD applications - System architecture and engineering - Network related development - Secure and safe coding techniques - Performance scalability issues - Porting to new/unsupported platforms - Operational and economical aspects Abstacts should be sent to papers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx before Midnight CET on July 31st, 2006.
