Attention Manufacturers and Suppliers: These sessions contain information on the practical aspects of display technology such as design, manufacturing, and testing of displays and display-related products. Papers are generally product or process oriented and deal with how something was engi-neered, how it works, what-to-use, how-to-use, and what-to-avoid. Emphasis should be technical, not marketing. Abstract, paper submission, and presentation requirements are the same as for the Symposium papers, although the content does not have to be original. Applications Sessions will be conducted in parallel with the Symposium sessions. A separate Product Engineering/ Applications Digest of Papers will be published. Applications papers are welcome in all areas of display technology, including:

SID once again offers a comprehensive
series of technical seminars given by experts in the field of information displays.
Speakers have expertise in the technical area as well as an established track record
in presenting quality seminars. Extensive seminar notes will be provided. These are
valuable sources of reference materials. The seminars and courses will complement
the technology tracks of the threeday Symposium, and, in addition to giving overviews
of information displays, they will cover areas such as liquidcrystal displays, CRTs,
display systems, image processing, applied vision and human factors, as well as display
measurement and manufacturing. The courses and seminars will fall into three categories:
Sunday,
May 12. Four 4hour Short Courses on Fundamentals. These give a clear and thorough
introduction to the principal display technologies.
Monday, May 13, and Friday, May 17. A series of 90-minute Seminars covering a broad range of technical subjects.
Tuesday, May 14 through Thursday, May 16. Practical 90-minute "Applications" Seminars targeted at design and application engineers. The seminars are held each morning before the Symposium Sessions.
SID seminars and short courses have established themselves as a costcompetitive source of comprehensive coverage of key technical issues and of recent progress in information display. Seminars and short courses planned for SID '96 will maintain or exceed these standards.
Several special panel discussions will provide in-depth participative discussions of issues of topical interest to the display community. Experts in their respective fields will present brief and informal opening presentations, followed by spirited discussions and questions from the audience.
