ICMP 2003: Schedule

Parallel sessions were divided in two parts of 1.5 hours each ((1) and (2) in the schedule below). Each period of 1.5 hours was always occupied by two or three parallel session parts.

For each parallel session part, the schedule shows where it took place (see also the conference location page):
