The IDRiM'09 invites proposals for special sessions to be held in conjunction with the Conference. Special sessions provide organizers and participants with an opportunity to concentrate on focused topics related to the conference. A minimum of four presentations is required for each special session.
Please submit your proposals to the Special Session Preparatory Committee Chair, Dr. Katsuya Yamori (email: yamori@drs.dpri.kyoto-u.ac.jp) by July 15, 2009.

We regretfully note that in principle each session proposer and organizer must either finance the session independently or ask each presenter to finance his/her own expenses.
