PREPARATION OF ORAL PRESENTATION AND POSTER PRESENTATION

Session Assignments

Accepted papers are assigned to specific sessions and will include both oral and poster presentation formats. Assignments are found in your acceptance notification and on the EDAS site. The session reference code designates the day (T=Tuesday, W=Wednesday, and R=Thursday) in the first position, the oral or poster assignment (number for oral presentation and P for poster presentation) in the second position, and the time of the presentation in the third position (see Conference Program for details).

Oral Presentation
Watch for additional information on this site

Audio - Visual
Each technical session room will be set with an LCD projector, lavaliere microphone and laser pointer. Please bring your own laptop. Speaker rehearsal room with LCD projector will be available from Monday 27 November - Thursday 30 November 8:00 - 18:00 for presenters who wish to rehearse their presentations. (Check on-site program for exact location).

Poster Presentation
Poster sessions are a good medium for authors to present papers and meet with interested attendees for in-depth technical discussions. In addition, attendees find the poster sessions a good way to sample many papers in parallel sessions. Thus it is important that you display your message clearly and noticeably to attract people who might have an interest in your paper.

ORGANIZATION OF IDEAS: Your poster should cover the key points of your work. It need not, and should not, attempt to include all the details; you can describe them in person to people who are interested. The ideal poster is designed to attract attention, provide a brief overview of your work, and initiate discussion. Carefully and completely prepare your poster well in advance of the conference. Try tacking up the poster before you leave for the conference to see what it will look like and to make sure that you have all of the necessary pieces.

DIMENSIONS: For your poster, you will have one board that is of size 4'x6'. The boards are made of PVC and adhesives (double-sided tape) will be provided. Make sure your items are not too heavy because the tape cannot support a great deal of weight.

FORMATTING: The title of your poster should appear at the top in CAPITAL letters about 25mm high. Below the title put the author(s)' name(s) and affiliation(s). The flow of your poster should be from the top left to the bottom right. Use arrows to lead your viewer through the poster. Use color for highlighting and to make your poster more attractive. Use pictures, diagrams, cartoons, figures, etc., rather than text wherever possible. Try to state your main result in 6 lines or less, in lettering about 15mm high so that people can read the poster from a distance. The smallest text on your poster should be at least 9mm high, and the important points should be in a larger size. Use a sans-serif font (such as "cmss" in the Computer Modern family or the "Helvetica" PostScript font) to make the print easier to read from a distance.

Make your poster as self-explanatory as possible. This will save your efforts for technical discussions. There will not be any summaries given at the beginning of the poster sessions at GLOBECOM 2006, so authors need not prepare any overhead slides for their poster presentations. You may bring additional battery-operated audio or visual aids to enhance your presentation.

TIME: Prepare a short presentation of about 5 or 10 minutes that you can periodically give to those assembled around your poster throughout the 2 hour poster session. If possible, more than one author should attend the session to aid in presentations and discussions, and to provide the presenters with the chance to rest or briefly view other posters.
