Instructions for Oral Presentations:

-        Plenary presentations should last 25 minutes and 5 minutes for questions unless specifically advised otherwise by the Conference Chairmen or Session Chair.

-         Session presentations should last 15 minutes and 5 minutes for questions unless specifically advised otherwise by your Session Chair.

-         In order to promote smooth transition from one speaker to the next, the conference will provide a data projector and a laptop.  Use of a personal laptop in the room is prohibited.

The presentation specifications are as follows:

-Version: The standard PowerPoint version is 2003 and Windows XP Pro is the computer operating system. If possible presentations should be complied in this format as problems could arise with animations if other formats are used.

-Language: English is the official language for presentation. If an author is not sufficiently fluent in English to present his/her paper, or if an author cannot present the paper for any other reason, make arrangements for a substitute presenter in consultation with the Session Chairs.

-Visibility: Please keep the needs of your viewers in mind: use large fonts, contrasting backgrounds, tasteful colours, and be fluent in your presentation.

-Video: If video clips are to be used in the presentation these video clips have to be brought along with the presentation.

-Timing: Please practice your timing prior to the conference. The quality of your presentation will be very important in determining the overall quality of the meeting.

-Files: The files can be received onsite on CD/DVD Rom or Memory Stick.  Please note presentations will NOT be accepted by email or any other method in advance of the conference.

-         You are strongly urged to meet the session chairs, if possible, well ahead of your session. Plan to arrive at your sessions about 15 minutes before the session starts to meet the session chairs, become familiar with the AV equipment and receive any last minute information.

If you have any additional requirements please let us know in advance of the conference so we can schedule resources.  If you do not, availability cannot be guaranteed.
