>> Technical Talks (25-30 minutes including Q&A):
>> Talks on:
>> LLVM Infrastructure,Clang and all related sub-projects
>> On uses of LLVM in academia or industry
>> On new projects using Clang or LLVM
>> Tutorials (60 minutes)
>> In depth talks on LLVM infrastructure or other core libraries, tools, etc. 
>> Demos encouraged.
>> Student Research Competition Technical Talks & Poster (20-25 minutes 
>> including Q&A)
>> Talks from students using LLVM, Clang, and all sub-projects in research.
>> The audience usually votes on a winner.
>> Lightning Talks (5 minutes, no questions, no discussions)
>> Quick talks about a use or improvement of LLVM and other sub-projects.
>> Birds of a Feather 
>> <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birds_of_a_feather_(computing)> (30 minutes)

>> Table (details to come). 
>> Panels (30-60 minutes)
>> Panels may discuss any topic as long as it’s relevant to LLVM or related 
>> sub-projects. Panels can take many forms, but a common format is to begin 
>> with short introductions from each panel member, and follow with an 
>> interactive dialogue among the panelists and audience members. Panels should 
>> consist of at least 3 people and have a moderator.
>> Posters (1 hour session)
>> Posters presenting work using LLVM and related subprojects. Poster 
>> presenters will answer questions from attendees and give mini presentations. 
>> 
>> As this conference is virtual and our very first, we are still working out 
>> the numerous details. The length of the talk types below are subject to 
>> change, but the above gives you an idea of what we expect. The majority of 
>> the talks will be pre-recorded except for panels, birds of a feather, 
>> posters, and possibly lightning talks.  In addition, we will be requiring 
>> most speakers to participate in some form of live Q&A. Time zones are a huge 
>> challenge with a virtual conference and we will do our best to be reasonable 
>> in our expectations. 
>> 
>> The timeframe for submission is also much tighter due to allowing time for 
>> speakers to record and us to process videos. We apologize for the 
>> inconvenience. 
>> 
>> Submission Requirements:
>> The submission deadline is July 15, 2020 at 11:59PM PDT.
>> 
>> Please submit your proposal here:
>> LLVM2020 Submissions <https://hotcrp.llvm.org/usllvm2020/>
>> For each proposal, please submit a title, short abstract, submission type, 
>> abstract for the website, include who the speakers or panel 
>> member/moderators are, and provide a more detailed description of the talk 
>> through an extended PDF abstract. We highly recommend you consult and follow 
>> the guide at the end of this CFP when submitting your proposal.
>> 
>> FAQ
>> 
>> When will I be notified of acceptance?
>> 
>> Our goal is to notify all submissions by July 31, 2020.
>> 
>> When is the conference?
>> 
>> In order to not conflict with another large virtual conference, we have 
>> moved the 2020 LLVM Developers’ Meeting to October 6-8. The exact times of 
>> the conference are still under discussion.
>> 
>> Should I register if I have submitted a proposal?
>> 
>> Given this is a virtual conference and we have less space restrictions and a 
>> different fee structure, you can register at any time before the 
>> registration deadline. We will be providing details on registration in July. 
>> 
>> When will the recordings be due?
>> 
>> Recordings should be completed by September 14.
>> 
>> Will I be required to have a video camera?
>> 
>> We do not want the lack of recording equipment to prevent submissions and 
>> will be sorting out options to help those without recording equipment 
>> available. Please stay tuned for details. 
>> 
>> When will my live Q&A be?
>> 
>> As the conference is virtual, our attendees and speakers will be in many 
>> different time zones. We won’t know the program until closer to the event 
>> and then we can start to form a schedule. Our schedule will attempt to meet 
>> the needs of many time zones, but will not be a perfect solution. You may be 
>> asked to give a live Q&A early in the morning, late at night, or multiple 
>> times. 
>> 
>> Who is on the program committee?
>> 
>> The program committee is composed of active developers of the LLVM, Clang, 
>> and related sub-communities. The website will be updated with the list of 
>> the program committee members.
>> 
>> I have a question, who do I contact?
>> 
>> Please email the LLVM Dev Mtg Organizers (devmtg-organiz...@lists.llvm.org 
>> <mailto:devmtg-organiz...@lists.llvm.org>), or the LLVM Developers’ Meeting 
>> mailing list. http://lists.llvm.org/mailman/listinfo/llvm-devmeeting

>> Detailed guidance on writing a proposal for the LLVM Developers’ Meeting
>> 
>> Writing a proposal for the LLVM Developers’ Meeting
>> 
>> This document is a guide to help you submit the best proposal and increase 
>> your chances of your proposal being accepted. The LLVM Developers’ Meeting 
>> program committee receives more proposals than can be accepted, so please 
>> read this guide carefully.
>> 
>> If you have never presented at an LLVM Developers’ Meeting, then do not fear 
>> this process. We are actively looking for new speakers who are excited about 
>> LLVM and helping grow the community through these educational talks! You do 
>> not need to be a long time developer to submit a proposal.
>> 
>> General Guidelines:
>> It should be clear from your abstract what your topic is, who your targeted 
>> audience is, and what are the takeaways for attendees. The program committee 
>> gets a lot of proposals and does not have time to read 10 page papers for 
>> each submission (excluding SRC submissions).
>> Talks about a use of LLVM (etc) should include details about how LLVM is 
>> used and not only be about the resulting application.
>> Tutorials on “how to use X” in LLVM (or other subproject) are greatly 
>> desired and beneficial to many developers. Entry level topics are encouraged 
>> as well.
>> Talks that have been presented at other technical conferences tend to not 
>> get accepted. If you have presented this topic before, make it clear what is 
>> new and different in your talk.
>> 
>> 
>> Technical Talk and SRC Talk  Proposal Template:
>> ** Include in the extended abstract PDF attachment **
>> 
>> Title:
>> This will be displayed on the website, schedule, and signs. Keep it short 
>> and catchy to attract attendees to your talks. A couple of examples are 
>> “WebAssembly: Here Be Dragons” or “Beyond Sanitizers: guided fuzzing and 
>> security hardening”. There is also a field in the submission form for this 
>> same title.
>> 
>> Description:
>> 1-2 paragraphs. You can also use this for the Website Abstract field in the 
>> submission form.
>> We suggest you proof read and pay attention to grammar.
>> 
>> Details:
>> Here you can include more details about your talk. An outline, demo 
>> description, background of the speaker, etc. 1-2 paragraphs is usually 
>> sufficient.
>> This section will not be published and is intended for the PC to better 
>> understand how interesting your talk will be to the audience. For example, 
>> if you would prefer not to reveal some conclusions in the published 
>> abstract, explaining them here ensures that the PC can take them into 
>> account when evaluating your proposal.
>> 
>> SRC Paper:
>> If this is an SRC talk, please attach your paper as well.
>> 
>> Panel Talk Proposal Template:
>> ** Include in the extended abstract PDF attachment **
>> 
>> Title:
>> This will be displayed on the website, schedule, and signs. These tend to be 
>> very straight forward about the area being discussed. An example is “Future 
>> directions and features for LLDB”. There is also a field in the submission 
>> form for this same title.
>> 
>> Description:
>> 1-2 paragraphs. May also be used for the website abstract field in the 
>> submission form.
>> Provide some talking points or potential subtopics.
>> We suggest you proof read and pay attention to grammar.
>> 
>> Details:
>> Provide additional details: goals of the panel, and example questions. 
>> Panels are to brainstorm and discuss ideas on a specific topic between the 
>> experts on the panel and the audience. You should also include detailed 2-3 
>> sentence bios for each speaker on the panel. You may or may not include 
>> speaker names as the submissions are blind.
>> 
>> Tutorial Proposal Template:
>> ** Include in the extended abstract PDF attachment **
>> 
>> Title:
>> This will be displayed on the website, schedule, and signs. Keep it short 
>> and catchy to attract attendees to your talks. There is also a field in the

>> submission form.
>> We suggest you proof read and pay attention to grammar.
