Oral Format

Presentation Length

Each presentation will be allocated a 15 minute slot. Actual presentations are expected to run for 12 minutes leaving 3 minutes for questions. Timing will be strictly enforced and presenters should make sure that they do not talk for more than 12 minutes.

Presentation Format

The preferred formats are PowerPoint and Adobe Acrobat. Computer systems with Windows XP and office 2003 will be available and presenters are expected to use the conference system and not their own laptop to minimize setup time. We request that each presenter upload their presentation as early as possible on the conference computer system. We suggest bringing a copy of all the files including movies on multiple media formats (e.g. CD and/or USB key). Please use standard codecs for video to minimize risks of playing issues during presentation on the conference computer system.
