Panel Discussion
Proposals from those who would like to facilitate a panel discussion are welcomed. The proposals may address any of the topics falling within the scope of the conference themes.
Panel Discussions provide an opportunity for public discussion amongst a selected group of panelists. Central to the success of a panel discussion is the choice of a good topic as the focus for discussion and panelists who bring differing perspectives and are confident in making clear arguments in a live situation. Panels should comprise of three to five scholars who present their arguments; a discussant offers critical comment on the arguments made and the discussion is opened up to the participating audience.
The proposal must include:
Title
Panel Chair(s) (if necessary)
Speakers Name, Affiliation and Email
Scope
Objective and motivation
The IICE-2014 will set aside space for those who wish to pursue discussion of a particular topic or issue. Interested individuals should submit a proposal not more than 400 words, on or before January 15, 2014. In addition, the proposal should indicate the duration of the panel discussion (preferred duration is 90 minutes).
All accepted Panel Discussion proposals will be published in the Conference Proceedings. If you are interested in organising Panel Discussion for the IICE-2014, please email your proposal to the pandis-AT-iicedu.org. Submissions should be in MS Word format.
Virtual Presentation (Video Conferencing)
We understand that some presenters will not be able to make the trip to Ireland to present their research paper, case study, work in progress and report, mainly due to financial and/or political restrictions on travel. IICE-2014 has therefore instituted a virtual presentation system to allow the authors of accepted papers the same publication opportunities as regular presenters. A research works submitted without the participant attending the conference in person, but presented via video conferencing are refereed and published (if accepted) in the conference proceedings.
You can submit a research paper, case study, work in progress and report for virtual presentation under the open call for papers via email to papersubmission-AT-iicedu.org
Sessions Speakers Participation
The IICE-2014 invites speakers to share their knowledge on issues or subject matters of the research work. To be a session speaker, you need to email:
Presentation Title
Scope (300 words)
Objective and Motivation (200 words)
Name, Affiliation and Email
If you are interested in giving a talk without submitting a paper, please email your proposal to the speakers-AT-iicedu.org. The proposal will be reviewed by the Steering Committees. After acceptance, you will recieve a feedback on any modification required. All accepted proposals will be published in the proceedings.
