PRESENTATION INSTRUCTIONS

Papers are allocated 20 minutes each for presentations and questions. Please properly set in EDAS the name of the author who will present the work. The presenter is kindly asked to bring to the Session Chair a short bio so that she/he can properly introduce him/her.

 

No PC will be available at the conference, so please, bring your portable computer with a VGA adaptor if required, or at least bring a copy of your presentation in a USB pen.
