Layout
- Each oral presentation is 25 min long:
20 min for the talk and 5 min for questions.
- All posters will be presented at the
Poster-Demo Session on Tuesday. The authors will be provided with
1.2 m x 1.8 m boards and pins. In addition, should the authors like to show
the results or demos using their laptops, they should contact the Program
Chair - the tables and the space will also be provided for those authors.
- The authors presenting posters may also be given an opportunity to present their work orally, should
there be a time slot available at the appropriate session.
- There is no difference between oral and poster papers in the proceedings.
- Oral presentations will be held in Room ICT 121. The room is
equipped with overhead projector and laptop computer.
- Posters should be set in Room ICT 116 starting 10:00 on Monday.
