• General features and target markets of the chip, product, or technology
  
• Specific technical details that will be discussed at Spring Processor Forum

Your final presentation should be 15-20 minutes. The typical presentation will have 15-20 PowerPoint slides.

Your presentation should be technically deep and market-relevant, with emphasis on new disclosures.

Please note that preference will be given to new processors and cores that are being disclosed for the first time at the Forum.

This year, we are soliciting presentations 20 or 30 minutes in length. We will select the best presentations for 30 minutes of stage time. Those extended presentations must be accompanied by a two-page written paper, which will appear alongside your hardcopy presentation in the conference binders given to all attendees. In addition, In-Stat will judge the papers for technical content, relevance, and overall quality, then publish the best ones in our industry-leading newsletter, Microprocessor Report. No other conference has showcased as many new and exciting microprocessors as our prestigious forums have over the past 18 years.

All presentation proposals will be kept strictly confidential. Proposals may be preceded or accompanied by appropriate non-disclosure agreements.

Please submit proposals via Online Form

Deadline for proposals is January 31, 2005.

Notification
You will be notified of the status of your proposal by February 24, 2005. If accepted, our speaker coordinator will contact you immediately with a timeline for the development of your presentation.
