  • Length of Presentations: Majority of technical sessions are typically 35 minutes.
Please have the following information ready before you start filling out the online form. Note that the system times out at 40 minutes. Please save regularly so that you do not lose the information you entered in case you take longer than 40 minutes.

1) Proposal Submitted By: Please tell us who will be submitting the proposal; principal speaker, co-speaker, contact person, or a committee member on behalf of the speaker(s).

2)  Which Conference? Please tell us which conference you would like to be considered. Some topics may fit into either program. You may select both ISO and LSS.  If you select both, then the Review Committee will decide where the presentation fits in best.

3) Proposal Title: Maximum 60 characters including spaces. Title should not include any "Trademark" or "Registered" symbols. Please note that the Conference reserves the right to revise a proposed title.
