Position papers provide the basis for discussion among summit attendees.
These papers will be made available to summit participants 10 days prior to
the summit in order to permit participants to read in advance regarding topics
of interest to others. After the Mobile AR Summit @ISMAR2010, and at the
option of the organizers, these may be re-published to the general public.

Mobile AR Summit Position Papers will not be peer reviewed. They will not
be considered part of the ISMAR2010 conference proceedings and will not be
published in the IEEE digital library. Summit Position Papers may, at the
discretion of the ISMAR2010 committee, be compiled and printed for distribution
to registered attendees on the day of the workshop.

What to put in a position paper?

The author (or multiple authors) takes a topic about which they consider
themselves to be experts/thought leaders, describes the topic in depth (provide
historical context or any data from experience, for example) and develops the
list of challenges/risks, and/or can propose solution(s).
