2008 SEMINARS
Monday, May 19, 2008

Seminar Chair
John Zhong, Apple, Inc., Cupertino, CA, USA

The SID Seminars present lectures on diverse topics related to information display. The seminars are tutorial in nature and an attempt is made to provide information at three levels. First and foremost, the technical foundations of the topic are treated in detail. Next, recent technical advances are discussed, and, finally, the current state of the art and projection of future trends are analyzed. These seminars can benefit both newcomers and experienced professionals. Engineers, new to assignments in information display, find these seminars especially helpful in getting up to speed quickly. Experienced professionals attend to keep up with recent developments in fields closely related to their specialties. Managers attending the seminars obtain a broad perspective of the display field and a sense of its recent dynamics. Attendees will receive an excellent set of full-color notes, replete with references and illustrations. Amble time is provided for questions from the audience in each session. The speakers are leaders in their fields and bring an international perspective to information display.
