  • Forming a Band: Applications and Advanced Development
  • Going on Tour: Enterprise Deployment and Management
The content of the sessions will be delivered in a variety of formats including: half-day seminars, one-hour lecture style presentations, roundtable discussions, panel presentations, informal "birds of a feather" discussions and show-and-tell style kiosk demonstrations.
