Call for Abstracts - Tracks

Do not attempt to submit abstracts or panel/training proposals through any other means. Submitted abstracts will be rated based on clarity, value added to the conference, and how well the topic fits within the track. Abstracts should be public-releasable and contain no proprietary information. Please note that the conference planning team may determine that an abstract or panel/training proposal best fits in a track other that what was originally selected by the author. Government, industry, and academia are encouraged to participate. If you wish to form your own panel discussion, we will gladly facilitate your needs. Click on the track topics listed below to thoroughly review the requirements of each track and determine which track the abstract or panel/training proposal best fits. Be sure to submit abstracts or panel/training proposals within the appropriate track using the links on this page. Abstracts and panel/training proposals should be 200-500 words in length.
