Practicalities

The conference will feature parallel sessions with the contributed talks. Lecture rooms are equipped with a computer and video-projector. The speakers generally bring their presentation file on a USB storage device in a common format (ppt/pptx, pdf). The use of one’s own computer is also possible but not encouraged. Please show up 10 minutes before your presentation to upload your presentation on the computer. In case of no shows or last minute cancellations, the assigned time slot is left empty, so that all presentations start as indicated in the program. Each contributed talk will be allocated 25 minutes: 20 minutes for presenting and 5 minutes for discussion and questions.
