Author Presentation Guidelines
Poster style and lecture style presentations are two equally
important and valuable methods for presenting papers at IWQoS
2012.
POSTER STYLE PRESENTATION
I. General information:
- The poster sessions will be 60 minutes long.
- The Author(s) are expected to:
- Be set up prior to the session.
- Be present at their poster for the entire session.
- Explain their paper to the collected audience.
- Answer questions and interact as appropriate.
- Remove their materials promptly.
II. Setup
- Poster boards are adjacent to the conference auditorium.
- The locations are assigned, check at the poster desk for
directions to your assigned site.
- Poster setup can begin as soon as the session before is
completed.
- Poster setup should be complete 10 minutes before the
scheduled presentation.
III. Materials
- All poster materials should be provided by the Author(s).
- Push pins will be provided to attach poster materials to
the back board.
- Your poster should be a maximum of 110cm (height) x 85cm
(width). Posters can be set up during the lunch break on the
day of the corresponding poster session.
LECTURE STYLE PRESENTATION
I. General
- Please bring your own laptop. Each lecture style
presentation is allocated 25 minutes. You should spend about
15 minutes for presentation of the problem, the background,
the innovative approach, the new results and the comparative
evaluation. An additional 10 minutes should be available for
discussion with the attendees.
- The presenter should prepare a reasonable number of
slides, so as not to exceed the 15 minute time. Typically,
one (1) illustration is presented in one to two
minutes. Additional illustrations could be prepared to
support possible answers to attendees' questions.
- Each illustration should not be crowded by text and
graphics. Too much text should be avoided: illustrations
should support the presentation; they should not be simply
read by the presenter. Graphics help in communications, are
more understandable, and point out the basic ideas. Use
large fonts so they can be read without a major effort;
typically 18-20 point fonts should be used.
- Presentation should be clearly structured. Begin with a
title page. The index of the presentation should outline the
presentation. The basic problem should be clearly stated, as
well as the application area. Background and previous work
should be summarized to provide a prospective for the
results presented in the paper. The innovative approach
should be clearly stated. The application of the approach to
the application problem should be described, by pointing out
the main features and characteristics, the problems and the
solutions. The results should be clearly outlined and
evaluated. Appropriate comparison with previous results
should be presented. Conclusions should summarize the work
performed and point out the main innovation and results.
Future work and developments could also be sketched.
