Instructions for Oral Presentations

The duration of each presentation is 20 minutes including discussion. Authors should limit their presentation to 15 minutes to allow for 5 minutes of questions.

A projector and a Windows-OS computer with MS PowerPoint & Adobe Acrobat Reader will be available in every session room for regular presentations.

PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST BRING THE PRESENTATION ON A USB MEMORY STICK IN ORDER TO TRANSFER IT TO THE COMPUTER IN THE PRESENTATION ROOM. 

Files can be uploaded to the computers in the lecture rooms during the breaks between sessions. To avoid software compatibility problems, speakers are advised to put .ppt, .pptx, and .pdf versions of their presentation on the USB stick. 

Be warned that movies embedded in the presentations are not guaranteed to be played. In addition, avoid using fonts that are not present in the Windows operating system.

Speakers should arrive in their session room 15 minutes BEFORE the start of their session to report to the Session Chair.

The projectors are designed for 16:9 presentations so the authors are encouraged to prepare their presentations with that proportion.
