Features of the Conference

Three Scientific Tracks & One Industry-University Collaborative R&D Track
There will be three scientific tracks, one each for AI 2008, GI 2008, and CRV 2008 and a collaborative R&D and commercialization track in IS 2008. Scientific papers will be presented in each of the AI, GI and CRV tracks. Paper presentations are 15 minutes in length - we are expecting over 150 for the conference! The IS (Precarn) Track will feature presentations by over 21 exciting Precarn projects as well as workshops and seminars.

Thirteen Keynote speakers
There will be 13 keynote speakers embedded in all tracks.

The conference features two exhibit areas this year. The poster area will feature over 80 posters - and there is a vote for the best - be sure to cast your vote. The exhibit area will include demonstrations of R&D in action, R&D funding organizations, as well as examples of the successful commercialization of Canadian R&D.
