2010 Annual Conference &

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Transportation Association of Canada (TAC) is now organizing the technical program for its 2010 annual conference. The overall conference theme, Adjusting to New Realities, reflects TAC’s commitment to exploring critical issues facing the transportation sector. Illustrating the need for greater efficiency and innovation during difficult times, the theme selected for this year’s conference should be interpreted in its broadest sense. TAC’s conference program will address many aspects of the theme, as well as a very wide range of other challenges and developments.
The conference program includes technical paper sessions, panel discussions and workshops. The purpose of the Call for Papers is to solicit abstracts for the technical paper sessions. Workshops will be held on Wednesday, September 29. Panel discussions will take place throughout the conference. Panel discussions and workshops will feature invited speakers. They are outlined to illustrate the wide variety of topics that will be covered at TAC’s conference. More information on panel discussions and workshops will be provided at a later date.
For the 2010 conference, TAC also plans to organize a limited number of poster sessions in order to allow for greater interaction between authors and delegates. These sessions will be developed based on an assessment of the abstracts received in response to the call for papers.
