Panel proposals should describe the topic to be addressed and identify the prospective panelists. Discussion of the panel topic among the audience and interactive debate among panelists are strongly encouraged. Panel Organizers should briefly describe how they intend to facilitate discussion in their panel proposals.

Case studies are reports on how visualization has contributed to the analysis of data.
They may have an application focus or relate to the visualization process. Possible application areas include physical, life, social and information sciences, engineering, and commerce. An emphasis on lessons learned from practical experience is strongly encouraged, particularly where visualization has been employed in a real, working environment. Presentation of challenges or limitations in today's methods and areas for potential new topics for research are desired. These reports may include results of research or approaches for work in progress but should also be somewhat educational for those not familiar with the application domain.
