A tutorial session is 90-minutes or 180-minutes long. - Conference presentations should address issues that ISPs and network operators could face over the next 12-18 months in their day-to-day operations. Conference presenters should plan for a 25-minute presentation followed by a 5-minute Q&A period. - Please note that marketing/commercial content will not be considered.
