WMTC 2006 will be hosted by IMarEST in London, 6-10 March 2006, in partnership with SNAME and some 22 other organizations. IMarEST plans to present about 180 papers in ten subject streams over the course of the conference. At this time SNAME members are invited and encouraged to participate in the technical program by volunteering to serve on papers committees and by submitting papers. For a list of the subject streams click here, or visit the conference site at www.wmtc2006.com.

Participation on WMTC Papers Committees

Each of the subject streams has its own papers committee, or Conference Organizing Group (COG). The COGs will conduct their business electronically, so that travel to attend meetings should not be necessary. The COGs will select the papers to be presented from the submitted synopses, and then oversee their preparation and review. SNAME members wishing to participate should select an appropriate subject stream from the list (click here) and submit brief evidence of their expertise in that area to the SNAME Technical Director at arowen@sname.org, for forwarding to IMarEST HQ and the COG chairmen. Members appointed to the COGs will be issued user names and passwords enabling the on-line process to go forward.

Submitting Papers for presentation at WMTC 2006

Abstracts of the papers must be submitted directly to IMarEST by 3 May 2005, through the conference web site www.wmtc2006papers.com/cgi-bin/submission1.cgi. If you submit an abstract please also send a copy to SNAME HQ, to Edith Nowak at enowak@sname.org so that we can keep track of them and be able to assist should questions arise. Please mark the copy for WMTC06.

The first WMTC in 2003 was organized by SNAME and was considered by all to be a great success. SNAME participation now in WMTC 2006 is a way for individual members to help to enhance the Society's international reputation - an opportunity too good to pass up.
