Student Paper Competition Finalists
This is the 11th year of the Student Paper Competition. 19 Student Paper Competition finalists have been selected by the Technical Program Committee. These finalists will present a Poster of their work (in addition to their scheduled Oral presentation, if any) during the Poster Session on the Wednesday afternoon. Please refer to the Poster Presentation Guide to see what is required. A team of judges will discuss the work with the student in attendance and will select the winners of the Competition. The winners will be announced on Thursday evening.
