---+ New Technologies Session at the [[IVOA.InterOpMay2014][May 2014 Interop Meeting]]

This session will be about techniques or technologies which should be in the IVOA's future, or which may provide alternative solutions to IVOA problems, but which aren't yet at a standardisable stage.

This might include:

   * web developments (HTTP successors?, HTML5?, compiling to Javascript?)
   * language developments (languages for natural parallelism? what's next after Python becomes unfashionable?)
   * database developments (nosql? biiiig data? performance?)
   * UI developments (game controllers? hands-free controllers? graphics cards?)
   * ...anything else it would be fun to talk about
This follows on from the successful and entertaining [[InterOpMay2013NewTech][Heidelberg ''New Technologies'' session]].

We can run this as a conventional session, with a sequence of timed talks, or if there's more interest we can run it as a sequence of lightning talks, or an unconference (I'm happy to take suggestions on format, too).

This session is on Wednesday, and therefore before the conference dinner; provocative proposals would suit very naturally!

Please send your talk proposals direct to me.
