SESSION PLAN

A detailed view of the session plan including paper numbers is now available, click the button below to download and view.

 *Program is subject to change at the discretion of the Technical Program Committee.

Please note that it’s quite challenging to produce this draft session plan, with a number of moving parts (including but not limited to sessions of varying lengths/different numbers of papers therein) to take into consideration. Please note that it is, unfortunately, not simply a case of being able to move as session from one slot to another without significant knock-on implications. 

In producing this draft* session plan, we have tried to incorporate a number of constraints which include but are not limited to:

  • Having sessions in the same rooms (to avoid confusion), ideally back-to-back if not at the same time on different days, 
  • Trying to incorporate most open slots at the end of the : General sessions (so these can more readily pick up any last-last minute/very late submissions, of which there remain some!), 
  • Trying not to coincide anything from the same stream with the corresponding poster session for that stream (Mon am, Tues am & pm and Wed am); we have not been able to achieve this 100% with Stream 2 and 3, unfortunately,
  • Trying not to coincide another session from the same topic with the corresponding : General session; again, we have not always managed to achieve this,

Thank you, Ben and Will
