Numerous Symposia are organized for each ASA-CSSA-SSSA Annual Meeting.
Those planned by the Software Scene are listed below.

Software Scene:
1.  Global Networking and Databases.  Oral, Poster, and Computer
    demonstrations are invited on use of global computer networks 
    such as the Internet and use of agronomic databases
    available over such networks in agricultural research and 
    applications.  Contact Dr. Wendell Oak (303-282-2473) for
    more detailed information.  Joint with division A-5.
2.  Demonstrations of Internet Resources.  What agronomic 
    resources are available over the Internet?  The World Wide Web,
    Gopher, FTP, Telnet, Usenet Forums, EMail lists, etc. may be
    demonstrated and potential uses/applications in agricultural
    production and research.  Oral and poster presentations may 
    also be suitable.  Contact Dr. Tom Hodges (509-786-9207,
    thodges at beta.tricity.wsu.edu) for more detailed information.
    Joint with division A-1.

3.  Development of User Interfaces for Agronomic Models and other 
    Software Applications.  The user interface (appearance) of a
    software application has a large effect on the user's ability
    to use it easily and correctly.  Oral, Poster, and Computer
    demonstrations are invited on types of interfaces, principles of 
    design, interface development tools, and use of interfaces.
    Contact Dr. Dennis Timlin (301-504-6255, dtimlin at ncsr.arsusda.gov)
    for more detailed information.  Joint with division A-1.
