People interested in speaking at the event should send the titles for proposed papers, with a 200 word abstract or synopsis, to the organisers at papers@tiworldconference.org no later than 6 April 2010. Abstracts should be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word format. Papers will be accepted from authors on the basis of attending the conference at the appropriate delegate rate.
