This session will take place on Tuesday April 25th at 8:30. It will be followed by a totally new interactive session devoted to some of the works ITA is actively involved in:

This session will address research efforts in progress, where members drawn from active Working Groups and other industry representatives will engage in discussions consisting of panel presentations and audience commentary and feedback.  Audience members will have the opportunity to comment on what has been presented, whether they agree or disagree with specific ideas and approaches, what they can offer from their own experiences, and what they believe should be the focus of future research efforts carried out by the Working Groups.
