From ResNetWiki

The Symposium Program consist of the following formats.

Lecture

Usually presented by one or two speakers, with about three-quarters of the allotted time for presentation and the remaining quarter for questions and answers.

Panel

Usually presented by three or four panelists from a variety of institutions or with differing perspectives. Panel presentations allow the audience to consider several different models simultaneously and to consider options that might fit into their environments.

Birds-of-a-Feather

BoFs are moderated discussions centered on ResNet topics of interest. BoFs tend to be informal in nature. While some are scheduled in advance, many are developed on the fly as interests and topics emerge during the Symposium.
