Work-in-Progress Reports (WiPs)
Would you like to share a provocative opinion, interesting preliminary work, or a cool idea that will provoke discussion? The USENIX technical sessions will include a slot for Work-in-Progress reports (WiPs). We are particularly interested in presentations of student work. To submit, please send a proposal (one page or less) to usenix05wips@usenix.org by March 10, 2005. The WiPs schedule will be announced on March 17, 2005.

Poster Session
This year we will hold a poster session where researchers can present recent and ongoing projects. The poster session will be a good forum to discuss new ideas and get useful feedback from the community. The poster submissions should include a brief description of the research idea(s); the submission must not exceed 2 pages. Accepted posters will be put on the conference Web page; however, they will not be printed in the conference proceedings. Send poster submissions to usenix05posters@usenix.org by March 10, 2005.

Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions (BoFs)
Birds-of-a-Feather sessions (BoFs) are informal gatherings organized by attendees interested in a particular topic. BoFs will be held in the evening. BoFs may be scheduled in advance by emailing bofs@usenix.org. BoFs may also be scheduled at the conference.
