The session has "industry-driven" in the title because the
origin for the session is industry's desire to make better use of academia's
research results. It is hoped that the discussion will be positive and
lead to specific suggestions for future actions.
The session starts with an introduction from the
organizer and chairmen, followed by short (max 5 min) presentations from each panel
member on the topic industry-academic interactions,
with short comments and questions
allowed after each speaker. Afterwards the same procedure will be repeated
for the topic Open standards.
After
this there will be a moderated open discussion where also the audience
is invited to participate. Tom Malik will together with the chairmen prepare
a summary paper on the discussion.

5 min intro + 50 min talk + 5 min questions = 60 min
- Contributed plenary talk:
2 min intro + 24 min talk + 4 min questions = 30 min
- Regular talk:
1 min intro + 15 min talk + 4 min questions = 20 min
- Poster talk:
3 min - be brief and to the point
Information for session chairs
All sessions: First 5 minutes are for introduction; this is why the sessions
start at 1315, 1355, 1625, etc.
The session chair should clearly inform the speakers when the alloted time
for the talk is used up (50 min, 24 min, 15 min), e.g. by standing up.
It is important to keep the time schedule to allow the audience to move from
one session to another. If a paper is not presented (``no show''), or a
paper is shorter than expected, the the session chair may use the
extra time for a short discussion or for a break.
