Conference Paper Finished!
Yay!, It's finally finished. Everything's all set to be sent. Gonna do that probably tomorrow! Will be putting up it on my website or here's the link so that maybe someone interested will be able to look at it. It's basically stuff I've got in my honours thesis but some information are new and the details are quite concise.
I've already been accepted as one of the 40 presenters in this conference. SMART'04 is probably a small conference but it is also part of the bigger conference on material science and technology in general. So that achievement should be quite high considering this is my first year.
And if I'm lucky enough, our paper might be accepted in a prestigious journal. Getting accepted in a journal is usually more prominent than by a conference because journal articles are always peer-reviewed or checked by experts. This being said, it does not mean that a conference paper to be accepted in the conference proceeding isn't important, especially if it's an international conference.
Either way, this will be the second written work, since I've started my PhD, with my name on it. The first one was actually written mostly by Roy but I helped out with the experiments and results. We're actually quite good in our supervisor-student relationship and sometimes we have lunches together and just talk about things other than the PhD.
Anyway, now that the paper's ready, it does not mean that I am going to be free as you probably have read in my previous entry. I've gotta do an assessed presentation for my 'Autonomous Mobile Robots' course next Wednesday on 'Shape Memory Alloys in Mobile Robotics' so that should keep me busy for a while.
