Agile NCR 2009 is a community driven event in which all the content is provided by the industry and academia. We are calling for Papers for Agile NCR 2009.

The paper selection is a three step process:

Step 1: Submission of Abstract

You should send an abstract of your paper with a title to agilencr AT GMail DOT com. The abstract should not be more than 250 words.
The abstracts will be reviewed by a group of reviewers. If your abstract is accepted, you will be invited to submit the presentation.

Step 2: Submission of Presentation

A submitted presentation will be reviewed by two reviewers. In case of disputes on originality or facts stated in the presentation, a third reviewer will be added to decide whether the paper can be presented in conference.

You, as a speaker, will present the presentation.
