Organising committee 2012: Kees Vuik (chair), Kees Oosterlee, Dirk Roose, Arthur Veldman, Margreet Nool (secretary)


Poster session: All participants are invited to present a poster concerning their research. Every presenter of a poster will receive a one-minute slot in the conference programme (in a plenary session) to attract the attention to his or her poster. One conference session, will be devoted to the poster presentations.

Submission of a poster is made on the electronic conference registration form by providing a title (in English), or one can send a title to the secretary by e-mail not later than 31 August 2012.
Moreover, all presenters are asked to submit a show page to be displayed during their one minute of the one-minute session. Requirements: it must be a PDF file, consisting of one page only in landscape orientation; make it effective for displaying during one minute. The PDF file should be e-mailed to the secretary.

Again this year, a jury, consisting of the keynote speakers under the leadingship of the conference chair, will rate the best posters.
The winners of 2011 were:

Slingerland
Idema
