Presentation Guidelines

Oral Presentation Guidelines

Contributing talks are 20 minutes (Including 5 minutes for Q&A). Invited talks are 30 minutes (including 5 minutes for Q&A).

  • Please use large fonts (20 or above). The text should be legible from the back of the room.
  • Please avoid using dense text, tell the story in graphics, diagrams, and pictures.
  • Present the high-level objectives, approaches, and conclusions in succinct ways.
  • Use the slide title effectively to communicate the main content of the page.
  • Please begin your talk by introducing the motivation for your research instead of a presentation outline. This can help capture your audience’s attention.
  • As a great speaker once said: “Life is too short for an outline …”. (H.S. 2005, Germany)

Poster Presentation Guidelines

Posters can be designed in Microsoft PowerPoint by setting the slide size to 4 feet (48 inches) wide to 3 feet (36 inches) tall.

  • Please use large fonts (24 or above), especially for the session titles.
  • Please avoid using dense text. Tell the story in graphics, diagrams and pictures as much as possible.
  • The objective is for visitors to understand the “main point” of this work, not to condense a full paper into poster format. Interested researchers can get additional details through extended discussions and in the published work.
  • The main point of your research should be clearly presented in the introduction and conclusion sections. Ideally, these sections should clearly communicate what you’re doing, why you doing it, why it’s relevant, and your results.
