Submission Formats
- Presentation (of work in progress, non-refereed) – requires an abstract and oral presentation of 20 – 25 minutes + 5 minutes questions and audience discussion. A presentation will be a work in progress and may use PowerPoint onsite at the Conference.
- Refereed Paper – requires an abstract and oral presentation of 20 – 25 minutes + 5 minutes questions and audience discussion. Accepted papers will be published on the Conference website.
- Symposium – a set of 3 to 4 papers or a panel discussion on a specific topic. Each paper requires an abstract and oral presentation of 25 – 30 minutes including questions. A symposium provides an opportunity to examine specific issues or topics from a variety of perspectives, maybe presenting alternative solutions, interpretations, or contrasting points of view on the topic. A symposium may use a panel discussion format on a specific topic. It may be an interactive session where a large portion of the time is devoted to discussion among the presenters and discussants, and/or questions and discussion among all those present.
