Information for Speakers

Presentation

Each full paper is assigned a 30 minutes time slot. Presentations should be 20-25 minutes followed by 5 minutes for questions.

Each short and project paper is assigned a 10 minutes time slot for oral presentation.

Please contact your session chair two breaks before your session.

Bring your presentation in a USB drive. You will be able to check your presentation in the "Speakers Preparation" room during the breaks.

Available Equipment

At the conference venue, the following presentation media can be used:

  • PC Laptops will be provided in each lecture room with a multimedia projector. Please get in touch with registration<at>vast2008.org if you want to use your own notebook and we will send you further instructions.
  • Software: Windows XP, Powerpoint 2007, Acrobat Reader, Real Player, Quicktime, Flash 9 Player, Codec (DivX).
  • Wireless Internet connection will be available.

If you need other equipment or special software, please let us know at registration<at>vast2008.org

Fast Forward

The fast forward is a snapshot overview of all papers, where authors give a 45 seconds preview of their paper. You will need to provide us with two or three slides which will be integrated into a fast forward presentation.

You can send the slides to registration<at>vast2008.org (video or other multimedia is allowed as long as it does not take longer than 45 seconds in total).

Bear in mind the audience is quite diverse so you should emphasise the application of your research rather than the technical details.

The fast forward will take place on Wednesday, 3rd December, at 10h00, so at least one of the authors needs to be present. If you are unable to attend, please notify registration<at>vast2008.org.
