The technical program will also include invited and contributed papers in structured 
parallel sessions and poster presentations. During the past months many proposals for 
structured sessions have been accepted, and we now hereby invite abstracts for these

directly on options for the exhibition, booth sizes, prices etc., then please send your 
contact information to <exhibition@xxxxxxxxxx>.

We hope that the Forum Acusticum conference will be a fruitful meeting point for researchers 
and practitioners dealing with all fields of acoustics and sound-related research.

Welcome to Forum Acusticum 2011 in Denmark!
