Projection guidelines
Instructions for projection
- A PC computer with stereo audio playback capability and projector, as well as laser pointers will be provided in each meeting room on which all authors who plan to use computer projection will load their presentations.
- Computers will be provided with software required for presentation:
PowerPoint 2003, Acrobat Reader and Windows Media Player. Note that Mac computers will not be provided. - Authors should bring computer presentations on a CD ROM or USB drive to load onto the provided computer and should arrive at the meeting rooms at least 30 minutes before the start of their sessions. If really needed, the authors also have the option to connect their own laptops to the projector.
- Assistance in loading presentations onto the computers will be provided.
- Note that only PC format will be supported so authors using Macs must save their presentations for projection in PC format. Also, authors who plan to play audio during their presentations should insure that their sound files are also saved on the CD or USB drive.
- All other equipment or software is considered to be special equipment: Any equipment or software other than the ones described in the previous section is considered as “special equipment.” Requests for special equipment (e.g., additional software, overhead transparency projector) must be specified when submitting the abstract.
Provision of unusual special equipment will depend upon availability and cost and you will be notified by email. All oral presentations, both invited and contributed, have been allotted 16 minutes plus 4 minutes for questions and for participants to move to other sessions. An audio signal will be emitted to signify the start of each presentation, the end of the presentation, and the end of discussion.
