Those who have a contributed paper accepted for the program will be scheduled to speak during a 1.5-hour or 2-hour session, and will have 20 minutes of speaking time, followed by a 9-minute question-answer period.  

Those who are part of a symposium that has been accepted for the program will be scheduled to speak during a 1.5-hour or 2-hour session, depending on whether the symposium includes 3 or 4 papers.  The specific format of the symposium is to be determined by the symposium organizer, but we encourage choosing a format that allows each speaker to have at least 20 minutes of speaking time.

All of the meeting rooms that have been reserved for paper and symposium sessions are equipped with a central audio-visual control system, a computer (PC), a projector, and a projection screen.
