Instructions for oral presentations

• The two lecture halls of AKRR'05 are equipped with modern audio-visual systems. There is a PC connected to a video projector in both lecture halls. Presenters will be provided with a clip-on microphone.

• In AKRR'05, the schedule will be moderated by the session chairperson. For 30 minutes presentation, please prepare to use about 20 minutes for your talk. We reserve 10 minutes for discussion with the audience and for switching speakers. For each presentation during the poster spotlight session there will be 3 minutes for the talk and 1 minute for discussion.

• We strongly encourage the speakers to use PowerPoint or pdf formats for the presentations. To save time, it is advisable to download the presentation well in advance from CDs or memory sticks (USB) to the lecture hall PC. Mac and Linux users should make sure that their presentations are correctly converted. There will be an assistant in both lecture halls helping with the downloads; see below.

• You may also bring your own laptop for your presentation. In this case make sure well in advance that your presentation is in order and your laptop matches with the projector in the lecture hall.

• The final schedule for the conference is online showing the date, time and room for your presentation. We ask that you bring your presentation to the room where you will give your presentation preferably a day in advance. There will be an organizing committee member, session chair, or one of the student assistants available to help you to load your presentation on the PCs at the following times:
  • Tuesday: (during registration)
  • Wednesday: 8:00-9:30, 11:30-12:00, 16:00-16:30
