The UK Asynchronous Forum is an informal 1-day meeting where those working in asynchronous design in the UK (and particularly research students) can meet to present and discuss ideas. The event is optimised for UK participants though others are welcome to attend. See the UK Asynchronous Forum home page for further details.
Extended abstracts of not more than 4 pages must be submitted to Alex.Yakovlev@newcastle.ac.uk by 9th June 2003. Abstracts must be sent in either ASCII, postscript (which must be viewable with ghostview) or pdf.
