Program
Royal Conti room, Royal Sonesta Hotel

PLATEAU has two major activities: Presentations from young researchers and constructive feedback from our panel and audience. A set of discussions to develop standards for our burgeoning community. See our homepage for more details. See below for a breakdown of the discussion stages and a workshop schedule.

Discussion of Standards
Stage 0: Why a Discussion of Standards?
  • Transactions submission guidelines
  • Consistency across communities
  • Help young or transitioning researchers understand the community
  • Supporting reviewers
Stage 1: Category Identification
  • Teams generate lists of paper types with think-pair-share
Stage 2: Breakouts Based on Interest and Expertise
  • Develop boundaries of paper type
  • Pick model papers
  • Develop abstract formula
  • If time, write up standards for paper type (in outline form)
Stage 3: Synthesis
  • Report back to the group
