Oral
Presentation
Visual Aids
We will only permit the use of
PowerPoint presentations. A laptop will be available at the presentation
venue and your presentation will be loaded before the start of your session.
You are welcome to use your own laptop if you may have specific software that
you may want to run as part of your presentation. But it is recommended to
try that before the start of the session to avoid unpleasant surprises!
Time Allocation
Each regular submitted paper has been
allocated 20 minutes for presentation, this includes time for questions, and
this time allocation must not be exceeded. Specially invited papers have been
allocated 30 minutes, again this includes time for questions.
The Session Chairs have been asked to be
strict with their time keeping of presentations. It is therefore imperative
that you do not exceed your time allocation.
Useful Presentation Tips:
Do not put
too much information on the slides:
- A maximum of six or seven lines including the title (not more
than 20 words).
- Avoid abbreviations, mathematics and tables of results (graphs
or histograms are much better
- Lettering should be lowercase, medium or bold and at least
Arial 22 point
- Keep diagrams as simple as possible
- Company logos, if used, should be of a modest size
Make the most of the presentation time:
Speak clearly
and avoid colloquial English – not all delegates have English as their native
language.
Summarize
your written paper and present any updated material and results,
concentrating on the basic concepts and conclusions, not on details.
Please note
that questions may be taken following your presentation, this should be
accounted for in the preparation of your presentation.

A0 size dimension is 1189mm by 841mm; A1 size dimension is 841mm by 594 mm.
However, the ideal poster size should be 1.30 m (130 cm) high x 0.90 m (90
cm) wide.
Presentation
- The heading should list
the paper title, author(s) name(s) and affiliation(s). It should be in bold
face type and readable from a distance.
- Posters will be mounted on a board and may be viewed during a
period of one hour prior to the poster session.
- Authors are expected to be in attendance during their
designated poster session.
- The poster board and push pins for mounting the posters will
be provided by the Workshop.
- All the poster papers will be provided by the author(s).
- A head-and-shoulders photograph of the author(s) could be
mounted near the top of the panel (not mandatory) so viewers can identify the
author(s) for intellectual interchange.
Useful Presentation
Tips
The abstract should
summarize the pertinent results and conclusions. The introduction should
state the purpose of the work in relation to previous work in the field. The
results section should indicate the most important findings. The conclusions
should give the interpretation and the significance of the results.
The references to
previous work may be appropriate. Include your usual contact details (e.g. an
Email address) to allow delegates to follow up any discussion.
Your display should
consist chiefly of keywords, diagrams, photographs, etc. Color
photographs are particularly attractive in a poster display. Diagrams and
graphs should have clear captions. All lettering should be easy to read.
Handwritten text or diagrams are not recommended. All graphs and diagrams
should be drawn with thick lines (preferably 1mm or more in width). Use color
to emphasize important features.
The poster display is important. You
are recommended to take as much trouble with it as you did in preparing your
written paper.
