The Program for Test Forum 2006
After many years in different Scandinavian counties, TestForum will for the first time take place in Finland. We have chosen the town of Tuusula close to Helsinki, for its easy access to the Helsinki Vantaa International airport and road access from the capital area. This we have done based on feedback from previous TestForums so we do listen to your views
Tauno Jokinen from Oulu University will give a keynote speech on the topic "Challenges of Testing Over Innovation Life Cycle". Tauno Jokinen has many years of experience from various positions in the industry and academia and will most certainly give an interesting and entertaining speech.
The topic for this year’s panel debate is "Selecting the right instrument bus" and will be preceded by presentations within this topic from providers and users perspective.
The sessions covering structural test includes presentations on X-Ray, fixturing and boundary scan. We will get up-to-date information on the development of new boundary scan standards. Additionally this year we have some Academic presentations, focusing on the future of testing.
The entire committee and I look forward to welcoming you at this years TestForum.
Yours sincerely
Knut Båtstoløkken
Chairman of Nordic Test Forum
Nordic Test Forum (NTF) Annual Assembly, November 27th 2006
NTF was established at TestForum 2001. We hold our annual assembly for NTF at 16:00 November 27th, 2006. The agenda and motions will be dispatched to the members in a separate mailing.
If you do not intend to participate in the Annual Assembly, the TestForum 2006 starts with Registration on 28th November from 9:00 to 9:30.
Practical information
The Seminar Fee adds to EUR 390 for NTF members and EUR 425 for others. The fee includes participation, food and refreshments from Tuesday morning to Wednesday afternoon as well as documentation on CD. If you want the documentation on paper, we will charge an additional EUR 50 for this. Exhibitors pay EUR 750, which also includes the participation of a single person.
The seminar fee will be invoiced directly to the organization, from which the participant comes. In the event of cancellation after the final registration date, or in the event of failure to appear, the entire fee is still due. On request, another person from the same organization can participate instead.
The hotel rooms are booked through the seminar registration, but the room rate is paid directly by each participant to the hotel (i.e. not included in the seminar fee). The room rate is €85 single and €100 double per night, including breakfast.
Booking of rooms at the conference hotel is not mandatory for participation at the seminar.
The Final Registration is Tuesday, November 7th, 2006, in order to guarantee hotel room. Registration after this date is also possible. However, we cannot guarantee that hotel rooms are available at the conference hotel.
Exhibition
As in previous years, there will be a mini show related to the tools and methodologies relevant to the NTF Forum event. Suppliers can make arrangements with NTF about exhibition space. If nothing special has been agreed, a table of about 70x140 cm2, as well as space for posters or similar material will be made available.
