Birds-of-a-Feather (BOF) sessions provide forums for conference attendees to discuss topics of mutual interest. BOFs are open to all conference attendees, including exhibitors and exhibits-only badge holders. The conference will provide meeting room facilities and post daily schedules for the BOFs. BOF proposals that exploit the SC Global infrastructure to create multinational and cross-cultural discussions are strongly encouraged. (Please note that BOFs held in conjunction with SC Global must be proposed by the April 18 SC Global deadline, not the later BOF deadline.)
Next Important Date: July 25, 2005, deadline for submitting BoF proposals.
The Submissions Website, www.sc-submissions.org, is now open and accepting submissions. Sample submission forms and instructions are available at
www.sc-submissions.org.
Birds-of-a-Feather Chair: L. Eric Greenwade, Idaho National Laboratory
