Session moderators are instructed to rigorously enforce the schedule, i.e. to strictly obey the length of a presentation.

We kindly ask you for your understanding and for your cooperation in keeping the schedule.

Be at the room of your session at least 30 minutes before the session starts, so that you can submit your presentation, meet your session chairs and the other speakers in advance.

A video projector and a PC will be available in session room. The use of personal notebooks has to be announced in advance to the technician.

We cannot provide support for embedded videos in your presentation; please test your presentation with the on-site PC several hours before your presentation. Generally, the .wmv format should work with no difficulties.
