First Call for Submissions for the 2015 CPHC/BCS Distinguished Dissertation Competition

The 2015 CPHC/BCS Distinguished Dissertations competition will soon be open for submissions via the website http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=disdis15

  • enable a computer scientist with significantly different interests to grasp its essentials.
