First, we are introducing a new technical talk category called “Quick Technical Talks”. These talks are similar to full length technical talks or lightning talks except that the speakers are given only 10 minutes. Additionally, we will no longer have a poster session and encourage those interested to submit a lightning talk instead. The Student Research Competition has been modified to no longer be a competition, but a specific category for student presentations and full length papers are not required. Lastly, you will notice that Birds of a Feather (BoF) sessions have been removed as a category and we will share plans for these types of sessions at a later date. </span></div><br class=""><div style="line-height: 1.656;
