Contributed Poster Presenter Information

8:00-10:00PM, Wednesday, August 4
Union Ballroom - II

Instructions for Contributed Poster Presenters

Preparation:

• Your poster must occupy an area no larger than 4 feet x 4 feet. 

• We will provide you with poster boards and thumb tacks.

• There will be no table available for you to place  any computer or demonstration equipment  at the poster.

• There will be no electrical power source near your poster.  So, if you need to use your laptop, please make sure it is fully charged before the session.

Putting Up:

• Please put up your poster between 6:00-8:00pm on Wednesday, August 4 in Union Ballroom-II.

• We have grouped the posters into what we believe are appropriate categories as per the information provided in the title and abstract.  Please determine from the printed program (or by doing a search on this website)  as to what category and code your poster has been assigned.  Each poster has been assigned  a spot so that all posters in the same category are contiguously arranged.

• Please put up your poster in your assigned spot alone.  (See diagram below).  Even if you believe that your poster was incorrectly assigned to a category, we would appreciate if you could kindly put it up in the assigned spot.

• Post-deadline Poster Presenters:  We strongly discourage post-deadline submissions.  However, if you are a post-deadline submitter we have spots marked with an X in the room layout below. Please choose one of the spots marked with an X on the diagram below closest to a category that you believe your poster most closely lies.

• Typically you are sharing your 8 feet wide x 4 feet high poster board with another presenter.  If you arrive to put up your poster first, please be sure to leave room for the poster that shares the board with you.

Exhibiting:

• Please ensure that either you or one of your co-authors is at your poster as follows:

• If your poster is odd numbered (e.g. CP-MT21), then please be at your poster for the first hour i.e. from 8:00-9:00PM.

• If your poster is even numbered (e.g. CP-AI08), then please be at your poster for the second hour i.e. from 9:00-10:00PM.

• In addition the Contributed Poster Session, we hope that the posters will be available for viewing all of Thursday, August 5 especially during the breaks.  We strongly urge you to keep your poster up until you leave the conference.
