Submission of Abstracts

The normal submission method is via the Association web site: www.aetransport.org by 12 February 2012. You will need to register once as an author and then you can submit as many abstracts as you wish.

Abstracts must be from 250 to 750 words in length and they should not contain footnotes, formulae, tables or graphics. They must contain enough information to allow the program committees to make a realistic decision about which abstracts to include to achieve a balanced and interesting programme. Some background information on the projects to which abstracts refer is also useful.

The Conference regularly receives many more abstracts than it is possible to accommodate in the final programme so authors should be sure that they are in a position to present their paper, if successful, at the Conference and that the abstract clearly sets outs the key issues.

Abstract Review

The conference programme is mainly drawn from speakers who have submitted an abstract for consideration by one of the Programme Committees. When they are reviewing abstracts, Programme Committees are briefed to choose papers that an audience of professionals from a wide range of countries will want to hear, so it is important that abstracts contain detailed information about the project, its methodology and the likely conclusions to be reached when the paper is submitted (September 2012) and presented (October 2012).
