=== Note on time for speakers and sessions ===

Invited sessions are 90 minutes - 3 talks in a particular session.  

  * Plenary speakers: 45 minutes with 5 minutes discussion time (50 minute session)
  * Invited speakers: 25 minutes with 5 minutes discussion time (30 minute talk)
  * Contributed speakers: 15 minutes with 5 minutes discussion time (20 minute talk)

Time for each session.

  * Invited sessions are 90 minutes. 
  * Contributed sessions are 60-120 minutes.

=== Note on LaTeX2e Class File ===

The class file mmr2015.cls is equivalent to mmr2013.cls, which was used for [[http://www.sastat.org.za/mmr2013/|MMR 2013]].  This class file has its origin at latex8.sty, a style file for IEEE CS Conference, and has been adopted to LaTeX2e and maintained by people around [[http://www.aparmnet.org/|APARM]].  We appreciate their efforts and generosity.
