The USENIX Annual Technical Conference is a conference of computing professions sponsored by the USENIX association. The conference includes computing tutorials, technical sessions for presenting refereed papers, SIG meetings, and BoFs. Currently there are separate, parallel tracks for the papers on general topics and for Unix-like/Open source software.

There have been several notable announcements and talks at Usenix. In 1993, James Gosling announced "Oak", which was to become the Java Programming Language. John_Ousterhout first presented TCL here, and Usenet was announced here.
