Scientific Sessions
Papers will be presented either in oral sessions or in poster sessions. Most sessions consist of invited and contributed papers. For accepted papers, a final decision on the style of presentation (oral, poster) will be made by the Session Conveners and the Program Committee. Session Codes, Session Titles, and Session Conveners are listed below. Please refer to the 2nd Call for Papers (PDF) for the "keywords" of each session.
The Session Code consists of the code of the URSI Commission (A-K) responsible for the session, followed by the code(s) of the other URSI Commission(s) organizing jointly the session and a serial number to identify the session.
