Notes for BTAS 07 presenters: "easy as 1-2-3".
1. Plan for your talk's time slot.
Talks for
accepted papers are either 20 minutes
or 10 minutes;
the acceptance email specifies
which applies
to your paper.
For 20-minute
talks, allow 4 minutes at the end
for
questions. For 10-minute talks,
allow 2
minutes at the
end for questions.
Think of the
talk in terms of the "big picture"
of the work
rather than trying to cram in all
the details.
The program
schedule is relatively tight, and
session chairs
are asked to keep things on
schedule.
2. Plan for the size of the room.
We are
projecting over 100 registrants for the
meeting.
Use large,
bold font text that projects well.
Check color
combinations and line width on
drawings.
3. Plan for the nature of the audience.
The audience
will be primarily technical, but
will come from
a variety of backgrounds.
Conference sessions are in the Washington Room
at the conference hotel, the Doubletree Crystal
City.
