Call for Symposium Chairs within Aerospace & Aeronautics Theme
www.dsr2011.org

Defence Science Research Conference and Expo (DSR 2011) is about research and applications in the field of science, innovation and technology that are specifically targeted at topics attributable to the advances within the defence industry. DSR 2011 will provide a platform for researchers and practitioners from all over the world to meet up and share their relevant experiences and knowledge. The primary objective is to enable researchers and practitioners working in similar areas to share their results within the limitations of unclassified research and developments. Through this event, we hope to enable interaction between the researchers and practitioners.

DSR-2011 will be held from 3 - 6 August 2011. This event is organized by the Mixed Reality Lab, National University of Singapore. This event is divided into its individual components: (a) The Conference; (b) Defence Technology Demo; & (c) The Expo (Industrial Exhibition).

We would like to invite proposals for symposium within each theme. Symposium within the Theme is intended to provide a forum for the discussion of a specific topic from the theme of the Defence Science Research Conference between an international group of researchers.

Each symposium should have at least 6 paper presentations. The symposium organiser will be responsible for promoting the symposia, reviewing and selecting the papers. Financial assistance for the symposium organiser will be limited to one fee waiver for the symposium chairperson. Papers accepted for Symposium will be published in the Conference Proceedings. The length of the mini-symposium will be a consecutive 90 minutes in length. Therefore, a recommended maximum number of presentation would be 6 presentation of 15 minutes each. Poster papers will be presented as a part of the main conference poster session. The conference is technically sponsored by IEEE and all accepted and presented papers will be indexed in IEEE Explore.
