This is the overall layout of SORMA West 2008. Clicking on the links in the table takes you to the relevant subset of the abstracts in Portable Document Format.
View the oral program, including abstracts and author lists, as a single PDF; or an eight-page Oral Program at a Glance document showing just session, title and submitting author. Both were revised 30 May and supersede the bound paper version in the registration packets.
View the poster program, including abstracts and author lists, as a single PDF; or a ten-page Poster Program at a Glance document showing just posterboard number, title, and submitting author. Both were revised 30 May and supersede the bound paper version in the registration packets.
Not shown on this simplified schedule:
- If you are arriving Sunday evening, please join us for early registration and a welcoming reception at the Berkeley Marina Doubletree, 6-8 pm
- There is a 30-minute break between Sessions I and II each morning and afternoon.
- Everything on Monday takes place in International House. All sessions Tuesday through Thursday take place in Stanley Hallm Rooms 105 and 106, and in Bechtel Engineering Center's Sibley Auditorium ("Bechtel" in this table).
- Everything happens half an hour later than usual on Wednesday (i.e., Session AM I begins at 9:30 and so on) because of the Chabot dinner event.
- When making your travel reservations, note that the technical program extends until normal close of business on Thursday, with summary (rapporteur) talks in the second afternoon session. Buses will be ready to take you back from our campus venue to the Doubletree at 5 p.m.
