Panel Discussions
The technical sessions may include topical panel discussions. Please

Poster Session
Would you like to share a provocative opinion, interesting
preliminary work, or a cool idea that will spark discussion at this
year's USENIX Security Symposium? The poster session is the perfect
venue to introduce such new or ongoing work. Poster presenters will
have the entirety of an evening reception to discuss their work, get
exposure, and receive feedback from attendees.
To submit a poster, please send a 15 page(s) proposal, in PDF or
PostScript, to sec09posters@usenix.org by Friday, June 12, 2009.
Decisions will be made by Monday, July 6, 2009.
Work-in-Progress Reports (WiPs)
One session of the Symposium will consist of Work-in-Progress reports
(WiPs). This session offers short presentations about work in
progress, new results, or timely topics. Speakers should submit a
one- or two-paragraph abstract to sec09wips@usenix.org by 6:00 p.m.
EDT on Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Make sure to include your name,
your affiliation, and the title of your talk. The schedule of
presentations and accepted abstracts will be posted on the Symposium
Web site. The time available will be distributed among the
presenters, with each speaker allocated between 5 and 10 minutes. The
time limit will be strictly enforced.
Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions (BoFs)
Birds-of-a-Feather sessions (BoFs) will be held Tuesday, Wednesday,
and Thursday evenings. Birds-of-a-Feather sessions are informal
gatherings of persons interested in a particular topic. BoFs often
feature a presentation or a demonstration followed by discussion,
announcements, and the sharing of strategies. BoFs can be scheduled
on-site or in advance. To preschedule a BoF, please send email to the
USENIX Conference Department at bofs@usenix.org with the title and a
brief description of the BoF; the name, title, affiliation, and email
address of the facilitator; and your preference for date and time.
