The deadline for requests for presentations for the November plenary is tomorrow, Wednesday, October 26, 2016, AOE. Please email your request to myself, and to Jon Lewis. If you wish to send your request to the reflector, that would be
better, as other people will then know what to expect to discuss. This helps build consensus. Please include: -
Presenter’s name & affiliation -
Title of the presentation -
A brief summary of what you expect to present and what it is aimed at (support for an objective, support for a particular CSD, PAR modification, etc.). 2 to 3 sentences would be nice. Repeating the title is often not useful. -
Approximate time required for presentation and expected questions. I would like to encourage presentations focused on filling out our objectives and supporting our CSDs and PAR proposal. We have had very useful ad hoc discussion, but in the end, ad hoc discussion is about building consensus. We must
now bring that consensus into the study group meeting. What I would like to see would be summary presentations with pointers to the relevant ad hoc material (no need to repeat the full detail), and what the objective supported is. Additionally, (while I’m not usually big on “supporters” lists) on proposals for objectives or CSDs it is useful to solicit supporters, so that the group can see what has broad support. The process of circulating the presentation often
helps build consensus (and yes, changes are made), and brings out any areas that would require discussion on the floor. George Zimmerman, Ph.D. 10 Mb/s Single Twisted Pair Ethernet Study Group President & Principal CME Consulting, Inc. Experts in Advanced PHYsical Communications 310-920-3860 |
