For Presenters

  1. Meet your chairperson 10 minutes before the session starts in the presentation room, during the break prior to your session.
  2. Please note that all presenters are required to use the PC provided at the venue (Windows). Personal PCs will not be allowed for presentations. Since the venue PC is Windows-based, Mac users and other presenters should prepare their files in advance and transfer them to the venue PC before their session.
  3. Announce the ground rules to the presenters as follows:
  • The total time allotted for each speaker, including discussion, is 15 minutes (30 minutes for invited talks).
  • Discussion time is 5 minutes, so the actual presentation time is 10 minutes (25 minutes for invited talks).
  • A timekeeper will give an early warning 2 minutes before the end of the presentation time (i.e., at 8 minutes for regular talks and 23 minutes for invited talks).
  • Presentations must be terminated at 10 minutes (25 minutes for invited talks) when the timekeeper gives the second warning.
  • A third warning will be given when the total 15 minutes (30 minutes for invited talks) including discussion time has elapsed.

Timekeeper’s Warnings

  • 2 minutes before: “Please finalize your presentation.” (at 8 minutes / 23 minutes)
  • 0 minutes: “Presentation time is over.” (at 10 minutes / 25 minutes)
  • 15 minutes (30 minutes for invited talks): Total time including discussion has elapsed.
  1. As the schedule is very tight, please keep strict control of each presentation time.
  2. To encourage discussion within a limited time, please ask each questioner to state their name and organization before asking a question.
