THE Brazilian Symposium on Computer Networks and Distributed Systems (SBRC) is the most important forum of the research and development community in Computer Networks and Distributed Systems in Brazil.
Among the main technical activities of SBRC are the mini-courses, which are aimed at updating on issues not normally covered in the curricula or that arouse great interest among academics and professionals. Proposals in recent areas, or yet unexplored and in areas with great potential to attract the interest of students and professionals in order to better qualify them for their research and / or the labor market are welcome. They may undergo short courses covering the topics suggested in the Call for Papers SBRC 2016 or others that the authors deem founded.
Each submitted proposal will be evaluated by three or more members of the evaluation committee. Will be considered when evaluating the following criteria: relevance and topicality for the event, proposal technical quality and proponents experience in the chosen theme. The best proposals on different topics will be accepted for presentation and publication.
Authors of selected courses should produce a chapter for publication in the book “Mini-Courses SBRC 2016”. The chapter should be written in Portuguese or English and contain between 40 and 50 pages, following the format of the SBC, available in www.sbc.org.br, Documents section -> Publications -> Templates for Articles and Book Chapters.
