Call For Presentations & Posters for

Hilton Phoenix / Mesa Hotel - Mesa, Arizona

TestConX is seeking presentation and poster proposals on a broad range of test and burn-in topics.

Each presentation at TestConX is provided a thirty minute presentation slot (approximately 25 minutes for the presentation with 5 minutes for questions and answers). Authors only need to prepare a PowerPoint presentation. (There is no paper to write.)

Posters are three oversized 24" W x 36" H pages which are displayed during an interactive session with the attendees.

Presentations and Poster final submissions are due in mid-January.


Please submit a 250 to 500 word abstract for presentations or posters of your original, previously unpublished, technical presentation by .

Submit via:

Abstracts will be reviewed and authors will be notified around .
