Preliminary Conference Agenda

Preliminary Session Layout  Full 4-day schedule  Max of 5 papers in each morning session  Max of 6 papers in each afternoon session  16 Concurrent sessions (16 * 44 = 704 Max abstracts)  No TC or co-located conferences will have more than 3 concurrent sessions  Treat the preliminary session layout as the maximum allowable for each TC or Conference  TC and conferences do not have to use all sessions allocated to them  Minimum 4 papers per session (can double up if necessary)  Number of sessions per area will be defined once the abstracts are in  Acceptance rate will likely be around 82%  I will send you session allocation after the abstract due date

Session Layout Guidelines  Do not schedule an author to present two papers at the same time  Do not schedule an author to present back-to- back papers in concurrent sessions  Do not schedule such that a session chair must present a paper in a concurrent session  Do not make an author wait by scheduling one paper on Monday and the next on Thursday

Abstract Review Guidelines  Consistent standards of review for all TCs and conferences  All abstract have 3 reviews  Reasonable acceptance rates  Invited vs. encouraged papers  The only truly invited papers are the keynote addresses and the SDM lecture  ALL other papers must go through the abstract review process  Swapping of abstracts with other TC or Conferences as appropriate is encouraged  Abstract requirement, as stated in CFP & AIAA website: Selection of papers for all conference sessions will be based on extended abstracts of no less than 1000 words (5 to 6 pages in length with 12-point font, including cover page, figures, tables and text) in which the authors must clearly identify the aspects of the work that are new and significant

Abstract Review Procedure  As soon as the website closes for abstract submission, assign the abstracts you have to 3 reviewers  Continue to watch for late abstract submissions to assign to reviewers  For TCs, assign abstracts to TC members and others outside of the TC  For reviewers who do not complete reviews, give them one reminder. If they do not respond, assign abstracts to someone else and report to TC chair  ScholarOne will assign a total score based on reviewer reports (?)  Select cut-off score for acceptance based on number of assigned sessions (which is based on conference acceptance rate)

Session Design Procedure  Organize accepted abstracts into topic categories  Assign a session title  Assign order of presentations  Assign authors of questionable record of attendance at the end of sessions  Assign international papers at the end of sessions  Assign session chair and co-chair

Special Sessions  Two types of special sessions:  Sessions in which individuals solicit abstracts and are involved in the session layout and chair/co-chair decisions (common)  Can span different TCs/conferences, but must be clearly defined  TC/conference reps are ultimately responsible for them  Must adhere to abstract requirements and cut-off scores  Organizers do NOT have final say for abstract acceptance  Come out of TC/conference session allotment  Submit proposal to Odegard by July 23 with special session title, purpose, session organizers and session chairs/co-chairs  Sessions which are treated almost the same as TC/co-located conferences (not common) e.g. Wind energy, International sessions  Multiple TC/conference reps share responsibility  Have their own session allotment  No “invited” (un-reviewed) papers

Student Papers  Student papers reviewed like all other papers  All primary authors of student papers must be students at the time the abstract is submitted for consideration  “SDM 2011 student paper competition” must be placed above the title of the paper on the first page of the abstract to be eligible for the competition  Student papers will be presented during regular sessions, and will be placed in the appropriate sessions  Remaining details to be established by student paper competition chair

Paper/Poster Standby  Paper withdrawals create gaps in sessions  Two standby/upgrade ideas discussed by 52 nd organizing committee  Posters in a poster session can be upgraded to presentations to fill empty slots, as long as papers are submitted  A group of standby presentations can be upgraded within weeks of the conference, as long as papers are submitted

ScholarOne  We have previously used Conference Administrative System (CAS)  ScholarOne is replacing CAS for 2011 SDM  ScholarOne never used before for SDM conference (used for other AIAA conferences)  A startup user guide is available (pdf)  From Eliot Winer (experienced user):  Once you understand the interface, ScholarOne is very powerful  It is easy to perform functions on single papers, not as convenient for large groups of papers  Online training session? (Ann Ames)

Fall Planning Meeting  Objective: Finalize the technical program  Possible location sites  Conference Hotel, Denver  AIAA Headquarters (near Dulles Airport)  AIAA office in El Segundo (near LAX)  Another centrally-located city (e.g. Chicago)  Dates  Monday, September 27, 2010  Monday, October 4, 2010  Monday, October 11, 2012

Strategy for a Smooth Fall Meeting  Have all TC/Conference planning completed before the fall planning meeting  The following information is due to Tech Chair (Odegard) two weeks before the fall planning meeting (from each rep):  Number of total reviews assigned  Number of total reviews completed  Proposed cut-off score  Proposed session layout (template will be provided by Odegard)  Student papers
