"In session": the time when Congress is active and members are present, fulfilling their respective duties.  

Conference: a meeting for discussion.

Roll call vote:  a voting process by the members who are present; no absentee voting allowed.

Sit: a bill that will not be in progress or in any action but will be inactive for a particular time period.

Floor action: activity concerning a bill which may include debates and compromises.

Version: a form or variation of the original.  

Explanation:

It´s said Congress is "in session" when it assembles and performs its regular business.

We talk about "version", for example, if the House and the Senate present different versions of a bill. And Conference Committees are needed if the House and the Senate present different versions of a bill, so they can discuss a compromise acceptable for both.

In a roll call vote, there´s a public record of the way each member voted, so there´s no absentee voting allowed.

There´s floor action when there´s action,  discussions, and compromises regarding a bill. On the other hand, we talk about "sit" when a bill has no action and becomes inactive for a special period of time.

pepin the short[a] (german: pippin der kurze, french: pépin le bref, c. 714 – 24 september 768) was the king of the franks from 751 until his death. he was the first of the carolingians to become king.[b][2]

the younger son of the frankish prince charles martel and his wife rotrude, pepin's upbringing was distinguished by the ecclesiastical education he had received from the monks of st. denis. succeeding his father as the mayor of the palace in 741, pepin reigned over francia jointly with his elder brother carloman. pepin ruled in neustria, burgundy, and provence, while his brother carloman established himself in austrasia, alemannia and thuringia. the brothers were active in suppressing revolts led by the bavarians, aquitanians, saxons, and the alemanni in the early years of their reign. in 743, they ended the frankish interregnum by choosing childeric iii, who was to be the last merovingian monarch, as figurehead king of the franks.
