Technical instructions for oral presentations
The session rooms are equipped with a computer, a computer
controlled projector and a traditional overhead projector. If you require
any another piece
of equipment, please let us know in advance. Lecture halls are equipped
with microphones
and loudspeakers.
The session room equipment is prepared for presentations
using MS Windows and Office XP (backwards compatible with earlier versions).
You will probably find PowerPoint to be the most feasible software for the
presentation. Please send us your presentation in advance. We will then install
it in our database and test it on our computer system. A technical helper will
download your presentation from the database just before your presentation.
Name your presentation XXXTSxx.ppt, or XXX Sxx.ppt where XXXX is your last
name , and TS is the number of Thematic Session and S is the number of your
Symposium as you find them on the programme. We will keep track of any programme
changes to ensure that you have the correct presentation at your session.
Please submit your presentation to ecpl@ltu.lt .
Submit it no later than 25 June, 2005. If you don’t send your presentation
prior to the conference, you may bring it with you. You must then submit it
to our IT-centre at the latest the day before your presentation.

Instructions for poster presentation
Poster
boards are
1000 x 2500 mm in PORTRAIT orientation. If your poster does not fit
the required specifications you will not be able to display your poster.
Poster sessions begin at 16:45 and last for 1
hour and a half. It is extremely important that the posters are mounted ready
for viewing at the starting time and are removed promptly at the end of the
time. The number of each Abstract will be mounted on the poster boards at the
beginning of the set-up times. Please locate your abstract number to determine
where your poster should be.
Poster Specifications:
» Poster size: maximum 1.00 meter wide and 2.50
meter high
» A poster must be readable from about 2 meters
(use preferably a Bold font, 18-32 pt).
» Prepare a label for the top of your poster
indicating the title, the author(s) and their affiliation(s).
» The poster must include
- abstract
- introduction, problematic, objective
- methods
- results
- discussion
- conclusion
» Captions should be brief. Avoid unnecessary
detail in figures, drawings and charts.
» Number and title sections. Use simple fonts
for both titles and text. Limit the use of capitals, lower case letters are
easier to read. Emphasize by using Bold or Italic styles, but
not the underline. Present the text in paragraphs.
» Left-aligned text is generally the best for
reading. Justified text (straight right margin) should be avoided.
» Use the single background
colour to unify a poster and to distinguish it from neighbouring posters. Lighter
pastel colours are best as backgrounds. Using too many colours confuses and
distracts the reader.
» Do not mount illustrations on heavy board
because these may be difficult to keep in position on the poster board.
» Your poster should be self-explanatory so
that you are free to supplement and discuss various points raised by other
workshop participants.
» Have copies of your complete paper ready to
hand out to interested persons. Include author name(s), mailing address, poster
title, conference name and date. Include your e-mail address and the web-site
address for your institution.
» All materials must be prepared prior to workshop.
There will be no graphic or computer print facilities available at the meetings.
