Lecture Presentations

The duration of a presentation slot is 15 minutes. You will have 12 minutes for the presentation itself and 3 minutes for questions from the audience.
An LCD projector and a computer (Windows XP, MS Powerpoint & Adobe Acrobat Reader) will be available in every session room for regular presentations. Neither overhead projectors, 35mm slides projectors, VHS videotape player nor DVD player will be available.

Preparation of Visuals:

• PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU MUST EITHER BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP COMPUTER WITH THE APPROPRIATE PRESENTATION SOFTWARE LOADED OR BRING A MEMORY STICK CONTAINING YOUR PRESENTATION (PREFERRED).
  Files can be uploaded to the local PCs in the lecture rooms during the breaks between the sessions. To avoid software compatibility problems (MS Powerpoint), speakers are advised to save their Powerpoint presentation with the Package for CD feature AND  bring a .ppt or PDF-version of their presentation.
• Speakers are strongly encouraged to visit the Speakers' Preparation room in advance of their presentation to avoid any last minute problems. The Speakers' Preparation room will be open during the sessions from Monday through Wednesday.
• Speakers should arrive in their session room 15 minutes BEFORE the start of their session to report to the session chair.

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, including that on graphs, should be 18 point or larger.
• Graphs and charts should have bold lines and symbols that contrast sharply with the background.

Poster Presentations

There will be a large number of posters presented during the conference. In order to make these sessions run smoothly, some cooperation from you, as a poster exhibitor, is necessary. First of all, it is essential that YOUR POSTER IS PUT UP BEFORE START OF THE SESSION AND REMOVED AFTER IT HAS ENDED.
The placement of your poster will be marked on the panel, where it will be presented with the number of your poster contribution: e.g. A4P-E (A = first day, 4 = the time slot, P = poster session, E = room E). Look for your number in the conference program.

The size of the poster panel that is available to each presenter is

118 cm (wide) x 148 cm (tall)

The format of the poster panel is portrait (width < height). You are free to choose a poster that fits on the given panel size. The recommended format is A0 portrait (84.1 cm x 118.9 cm, 33.1 inch x 46.8 inch).

Please attach your poster to the panel with pins, which are available in the poster area. If you need more pins, please contact the information. After you have removed your poster, please leave the pins on the board.
