3. Instructions for Presenters

Oral Presentations:
Each speaker will have 15 mins in which to present their work. This will be followed by 5 mins for questions. Speakers exceeding their allotted 15 mins will be hauled from stage.

The preferred format for oral presentations will be IBM compatible Microsoft Powerpoint 2000 or later. There will be no VHS video capabilities. The lecture hall is equipped with an audiovisual system linked to a PC laptop computer, so audio and video clips embedded in a Powerpoint presentation should play without problems. Please note: files containing video or audio clips have to be located in the same folder as the Powerpoint presentation itself! Please bring your presentation and associated files in a self-contained folder on a CD (named as the first author of the talk). Our abilities to cater for special requirements will be limited, but if you have any such requests, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can check for possibilities.

Posters Presentations:
Presenters will have strictly 0.9m width x 1.8m length of poster board available for poster displays.
Posters can be assembled on Sunday evening or Monday morning and will be on display for the duration of the conference. Dedicated poster sessions will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday from 1630 - 1800.
