How to Participate
SIAM requests that individuals limit themselves to giving one talk. (This does not apply to invited plenary or topical speakers). The co-chairs of the organizing committee may make exceptions to this request.
You are invited to contribute a presentation for this conference in one of the following formats.
Minisymposia
A minisymposium consists of four 25-minute presentations, with an additional five minutes for discussion after each presentation. Prospective minisymposium organizers are asked to submit a proposal consisting of a title, a description (not to exceed 100 words), and a list of speakers and titles of their presentations using the Conference Management System.
To ensure balance, we would prefer that a single individual not be the organizer of more than one minisymposium.
It is recommended that the minisymposium organizer make the first presentation. Each minisymposium speaker should submit a 75-word abstract. The organizing committee will referee minisymposium proposals. The number of minisymposia may be limited to retain an acceptable level of parallelism in the conference sessions.

Deadline for submission of minisymposium proposals: January 7, 2008 February 11, 2008
Deadline for submission of minisymposium speaker abstracts: January 21 , 2008 February 11, 2008
Contributed Presentations
(a) Contributed Lecture with Poster
Contributed presentations in lecture with poster format are invited in all areas consistent with the conference themes. A lecture with poster format involves an eight minute oral presentation with two minutes for set-up. Thirty minutes will be allotted at the conclusion of the lectures for poster presentation and open discussion.
(b) Contributed Poster Format for Presentation during Poster Session
A poster format involves the use of non-electronic visual aids for mounting on a 4’x 6’ or 4’ x 8’ poster board. A poster session is two hours long.
Each contributor, either for a lecture with poster or a poster, must submit a title and a brief abstract not to exceed 75 words. Please submit contributed presentations in lecture with poster or poster format using the Conference Management System.
Please note: If submitting a lecture with poster presentation, be sure to select the "Lecture" option under "Contributed Participation." If submitting a poster for presentation during the poster session, select the "Poster" option under "Contributed Participation."
