Workshop Details

Documentation:

  1. Proceedings will not be published; therefore, formal papers and handouts are not expected from speakers.
  2. Work in progress, new ideas, and interesting projects are sought.
  3. Professionally-prepared visual aids are not required; handwritten viewgraphs are entirely acceptable.
  4. Note-taking by participants is encouraged. However, to ensure free and open discussions, no formal records will be kept.

Workshop Deliverables:

  • The committee will prepare a full report containing the highlights of the Workshop discussions. This report will be circulated to all attendees. A one-page summary will be prepared by the Workshop Co-Chairpersons, which will be posted on the SPE Website: www.spe.org, and published in The Way Ahead magazine. The copyright of the summary report will belong to SPE.
  • PowerPoint presentation materials will be posted on a specific SPE URL address after the Workshop. Provision of the materials by the discussion leaders will signify their permission for SPE to do so.

In keeping with Workshop objectives and the SPE mission, excessive commercialism in presentations will not be permitted. Company logos must be limited to the title slide and used only to indicate the affiliation of the presenter and others involved in the work.
