OFC 2017 • 19–23 March 2017 51 Explanation of Session Codes

M1C.4

Day Of The Week Number S = Sunday (Presentation order M=Monday within the session) Tu=Tuesday W=Wednesday Th=Thursday Session Designation Series Number (alphabetically) 1 = First series of sessions in day 2 = Second series of sessions in day Committees The first letter of the code denotes the day of the week (Sunday=Sunday, Monday=M, Tuesday=Tu, Wednesday=W, Th=Thursday) . The third element indicates the session series in that day (for instance, 1 would denote the first parallel sessions in that day) . Each day begins with the letter A in the fourth element and continues alphabetically through a series of parallel sessions . The lettering then restarts with each new series . The number on the end of the code (separated from the session code with a period) signals the position of the talk within the session (first, second, third, etc ). . For example, a presentation coded M1C .4 indicates that this paper is being presented on Monday (M) in the first series of sessions (1), and is the third parallel session (C) in that series and the fourth paper (4) presented in that session .
