Tech Sessions

Featured below are 10 technical sessions, 1.5 or 2 hour programs in which three or four technical papers are presented under the direction of a chairperson. Each paper is presented by the author on a topic related to the main subject of the track and is followed by audience questions.

The objective of a technical session is to bring new scientific and technical developments to light. Emphasis is placed on original, previously unpublished papers.
