| PRESENTATION GUIDELINES | ||
| Contributed Papers | ||
| ORAL PRESENTATIONS | ||
|
The maximum duration of a presentation slot is 24 minutes in a 2h session and 22 minutes in a 1:30h session. Speakers are strongly encouraged to leave 4-5 minutes for questions from the audience.
A projector and computer (Windows, MS PowerPoint & Adobe Acrobat Reader) will be available in every session room for presentations.
Presentation Requirements
Speakers must arrive in their session room at least 15 minutes BEFORE the start of their session to report to the chair persons. An assistant from the local organization will also be available for technical assistance.
PLEASE NOTE THAT SPEAKERS MUST BRING A WINDOWS COMPATIBLE MEMORY STICK CONTAINING THEIR PRESENTATION FILE.
Files can be uploaded to the local PCs in the lecture rooms during the breaks between the sessions. To avoid software compatibility problems, speakers are advised to EMBED ALL FONTS in their PowerPoint file AND bring a backup PDF-version of their presentation.
We have a power point template available for your convenience. If you choose not to use this template, please include your full name in the footer of the slides for your presentation.
General Considerations
- Limit the number of words per visual to no more than 20.
- Leave space, at least the height of a capital letter, between lines of text.
- All fonts should be 18 point or larger.
- Graphs and charts should have bold lines and symbols that contrast sharply with the background.
Chair Responsibilities:
For incentive compatibility reasons, the final speaker in each session will be the chair. If you have been designated as a chair for your session, you will have to be present at least 15 -20 minutes before the session is set to begin. You will also have to keep the presentations on time. In the event where a presenter is absent, it is important to keep their slot empty, this will allow people who are going between sessions to still have an accurate schedule.

| VISUAL PRESENTATIONS | ||
|
During the Visual Presentation sessions, participants will circulate to hear your presentation and discuss your research. You should aim to present for approximately 6 minutes and then be prepared to answer questions for a further 4 minutes.
There will be a large number of posters presented during the conference. It is essential that posters are put up in the assigned place so that they can be easily reached by the interested attendees. The assigned placement of each poster will be marked on the panel where the poster will be presented with the number of the specific poster according to the session code reported in the conference program. Ex. CP (V) 01-03 (01= First visual session, 03= Third set of presentations within that session).
All the posters will be attached for 2 days during the conference.
Presentation Requirements:
The size of the panel space that is available to each poster is
120cm (high) x 90cm (wide)
The format of the poster panel is portrait (height > width) - Poster Template.
Size and format cannot be modified. Authors are free to choose a single poster (or many smaller posters) that fit on the given panel size. Posters will be attached to the panel with adhesive tape available on site. If more tape is needed, the poster area assistant can be contacted.
Setup Information
Because there are two Contributed Paper (Visual) time slots, presenters will be setting up and taking down their posters at different times.
First poster session – Tuesday, August 11th You can setup your poster as early as Sunday morning, and will have to take down your poster immediately after presenting at 9:30 on Tuesday. This will allow the second session presenters to put up their posters.
Setup location: External Cloister – Largo Richini
Setup time: Starting Sunday, August 9th morning
Takedown time: 9:30 Tuesday, August 11th
Second poster session – Wednesday, August 12th
You will be able to set up your poster starting on Tuesday morning after the first session presentation has finished, and you will be able to take down your posters as late as Friday.
Setup location: External Cloister – Largo Richini
Setup time: Starting 9:30 Tuesday, August 11th
Takedown time: Friday, August 13th
Chair Responsibilities
For incentive compatibility, we ask that the presenter who appears last in the list of presenters under each session be prepared to chair all presentations under that title. The main functions of the chair are to keep presenters to time; to encourage questions and discussion, and to move the audience from poster to poster within each session.
