The call for submissions to present lectures, roundtables, panels and poster sessions at the 2010 Game Developers Conference (GDC) is now open through Friday, August 14th. GDC, the annual conference dedicated to the art, science and business of games returns to San Francisco’s Moscone Convention Center March 9 - 13, 2009. Session proposals can be submitted via the official GDC website at http://www.gdconf.com/.

The GDC submission process is divided into a three-phase system, beginning with this initial call for submissions and continuing with the first review and resubmit phase and then final review. Session formats this year include 25- and-60-minute lectures, as well as panels, roundtables, one or two day tutorials and poster sessions. The GDC advisory board will review and determine submissions based on the criteria of concept, depth, organization, credentials and takeaway.
