be receiving multiple invitations from members of the various
PIERS Committees or other session organizers. One need not
be overly concerned with a session topic that might be in
conflict or overlapping with topics of other sessions. Multiple
sessions in the same technical area will serve to enhance
the strength and interest of the area at the Symposium. The
Technical Committee will schedule sessions of similar topics
at different times over the Symposium period. Each organized
session should have eight to eleven papers that will not be
subject to the regular review cycle. The session organizer
have full authority in soliciting and accepting papers for
the session. The allocated presentation time for each paper
is 20 minutes that includes the time for questions from the
audience. Each author is limited to presenting no more than
three papers (including poster papers) at the Symposium and
is required to register in advance. The names of the session
organizers will be listed under PIERS organization on the
web page, and in the printed version of all PIERS publications
when more than five papers of an organized session are received.
The session organizer can then designate a chair and a co-chair
for the session. |
