"What happens when we use what's best for a change?" http://bobkonf.de/2020/cfc.html Berlin, February 28 Call for Contributions Deadline: November 8, 2019
You are actively engaged in advanced software engineering methods, implement ambitious architectures and are open to cutting-edge innovation? Attend this conference, meet people that share your goals, and get to know the best software tools and technologies available today. We strive to offer a day full of new experiences and impressions that you can use to immediately improve your daily life as a software developer.
If you share our vision and want to contribute, submit a proposal for a talk or tutorial!

The program committee offers shepherding to all speakers. Shepherding provides speakers assistance with preparing their sessions, as well as a review of the talk slides.
Topics ------
We are looking for talks about best-of-breed software technology, e.g.:
- functional programming - persistent data structures and database - event-based modelling and architectures - types - formal methods for correctness and robustness - abstractions for concurrency and parallelism - metaprogramming - probabilistic programming - math and programming - controlled side effects - beyond REST and SOAP - effective abstractions for data analytics - ... everything really that isn’t mainstream, but you think should be.
Presenters should provide the audience with information that is practically useful for software developers.
We're especially interested in experience reports. Other topics are also relevant, e.g.:
- introductory talks on technical background - overviews of a given field - demos and how-tos
