It's planning time for the 2010 Joint Statistical Meetings in Vancouver. I
am
the Program Committee representative for the Section on Statistical Computing,
so I'm looking for suggestions for invited sessions.
Detailed proposals are welcome, as are vague suggestions for topics and speakers
that I might not have heard of. The Section gets at least four invited
sessions and often picks up one or more competitive slots, and any proposals
that don't make it could still be turned into Topic Contributed sessions.
Suggestions for roundtable lunch/coffee presenters, invited posters, and other
aspects of the program are also welcome, though less urgent. For suggestions on
topics other than statistical computing, you can find the rest of the Program
Committee at
