Industry and Community Track

Details for call for papers for OpenSym 2015, Aug 19-21, 2015, in San Francisco, California.

Topics

Defined as “collaboration that is egalitarian (everyone can join, no principled or artificial barriers to participation exist), meritocratic (decisions and status are merit-based rather than imposed) and self-organizing (processes adapt to people rather than people adapt to pre-defined processes)“, we are seeking industry and community contributions that best exemplify this definition of open collaboration.
