Application Development
These papers provide both a user's view of a working system and some behind the scenes
tips on its development. This split view is ideal for showing off a system
built for people who did not necessarily develop it. This is the place
for cool 'Net and Web-based applications that incorporate SAS software. |
Coders Corner
Short talks on how to speed up, analyze, look up, find, or avoid - while
using the SAS system. These 10-minute helpful hint tutorials are a perfect
way to pick up some quick SAS tricks without committing to a major paper.

Data Management
Papers that tell
how to deal with that pile of data.
Topics such as collection and input, structure, validation, maintaining
integrity, archiving, conversion, tracking and audit trails are included.
Data warehousing is just one of the tools used to accomplish data
management. Fran Akridge franakridge@mindspring.com (W)678-339-5192 Bill Calvert calvertfarm@jhu.edu (H) 301-738-1024 |
Graphics and Information Visualization
presentations show how to
effectively present or analyze complicated data in a visual way using
SAS software. Well-done graphics make wonderful persuaders and
are invaluable for getting a different perspective on massive or
complex data. Use of SAS/GRAPH®, ODS
features and other approaches are included. |
|
Hands-On Workshops These workshops are all presented by
Destiny Corporation's professional instructors.
|
Posters provide a visual display
of information rather than a formal
lecture. Topics cover any and all uses of SAS software. Presentations typically include
graphics or source code or cover topics that can best be summarized in a few main points.
Posters are on
display throughout the conference. Authors will be standing by at scheduled times. Janet Stuelpner jstuelpner@usa.net (H) 203-966-7520 |

Statistics, Modelling, & Data Mining
papers cover a wide range
of statistical procedures and methodologies utilizing the many SAS
products (e.g. SAS/STAT®, SAS/QP®, SAS/ETS®, SAS/OR®,
Enterprise Miner®). Techniques directly relevant to preparing data for
statistical analysis are also included. See new and improved developments
in SAS software. Hear about interesting statistical and data mining applications. Janice K. McBee jmcbee@vt.edu (W) 540-231-3601 Jennifer L. Waller, Ph.D. jennifer@stat.mcg.edu (W) 706-721-3785 |
Training and Professional Development
addresses issues of technical standards, training, management, and career decisions.
Hear the secrets of your colleagues successful experiences.

|
Tutorials are in-depth
explanations of a wide range of topics within
the SAS System. Papers are designed to provide users at all levels
of expertise with specific "how-to" tools presented in a step-by-step
approach. Since even experienced SAS users are always beginners
at something, presentations are classified as Beginning if they can be
understood by an audience who has never heard the keywords before. Advanced papers assume
the audience has a good working knowledge in the general subject area. Tutorial presenters
are experienced with Base SAS in their own environments as well as
with their chosen topics. Dan Bruns debruns@tva.gov (W) 423-751-6430 Gary E. Schlegelmilch gary.e.schlegelmilch@census.gov |
Vertical SAS Solutions Presenters
in this section will tell us about enterprise systems that support
focused initiatives such as supplier relationship management (SRM) and balanced
scorecard. Hear about real-life experiences using SAS vertical
products or SAS solutions with a special focus on corporate
integration and acceptance, implementation planning, ROI, learning
curves, required expertise, and software pros and cons.

Volunteer Opportunities Help in non-presentation ways during
and before the conference. Volunteering is an easy way to meet your SAS
colleagues, even if you dont like standing up in front of crowds.
|
Weekend Workshops Professional
seminars on SAS subjects. This year we are sponsoring 16 half- and
full-day seminars before and after the actual conference at the same
site. These are additional fee events which SESUG promotes. You may register
for them on the conference registration form or online registration system. |
