Each poster has been assigned a number and must be mounted on the appropriately numbered board. You can check the number by referring to the printed or on-line program.
Poster schedule
The author of the poster is requested to be stand by his/her poster throughout the duration of the scheduled session (please refer to the printed or on-line program for information on when your poster session is scheduled). Authors are encouraged to engage the audiences in technical discussion by making periodic presentations and answering questions.
Please report to the poster session chair at the beginning of your session.

Make sure that your poster is printed the day before your session.
Oral Presentation
Presentation duration
Each presentation is allocated 15 minutes for lecture sessions. This time includes setup and questions. We recommend that presentation of your slides should take about 12 minutes, leaving 3 minutes for setup, introduction, summary, and questions from the audience. Recall that there will be plenty of time to discuss your work during the coffee breaks and social events.

Lightning Presentation
The lightning sessions are plenary sessions. They will take place in the main Room every morning between the keynote presentations. We expect the sessions to be well attended and a great success!
Presentation Requirements
Each presentation is allocated 5 minutes. Please keep your presentation within the time you are allotted as a courtesy to the other speakers, your session chair and the audience. Recall that there will be plenty of time to discuss your work during the coffee breaks and social events.

There is no time reserved for discussion or questions after each presentation.
Discussions will follow the last presentation of the session.

Reporting to the session chair
Lighting sessions require a little bit of advance organization to ensure they run smoothly. The smooth, rapid flow of talks is what makes the lightning sessions so exciting. While one lightning speaker is presenting, the next speakers will be on the podium getting ready so that there are no delays between presentations.
All speakers must report to the session chair at the registration desk at 8:30 AM the day of your presentation to receive instructions from the chair, review presentation order and make sure your presentation is how you wish.
Make sure to be in the room 15-20 minutes before the session starts.
Poster Lightning Presentation Tips
Use illustrations and graphic material on each slide – as opposed to textual content alone – to increase comprehension and retention.
Keep the wording to a minimum, as you want the audience focused on what you are saying in the short time allotted, not trying to read words on your slides.
Try to keep your presentation focused on visuals, feel free to get creative with how you lay out your information and/or data.
Remember that you are the presenter, not the slides. Use your slides to emphasize a point, keep yourself on track, and illustrate a point with a graphic or photo.
Keep it simple, clean, and concise. Use consistent wording. The maximum screen load is 6 to 8 lines and 30-35 words for a single slide.
Practice your presentation. Know your time limit (your presentation length) and set a timer for these practice presentations.
