TECHNICAL SESSION
Overview
All technical sessions are listed in the preliminary program.
In general, presenters are asked to make 15-minute presentations,
and allow an additional five minutes for questions and answers.
Each technical session is being moderated either by a member
of the ICOET 2005 program committee or by a representative
of the conference co-hosts, Caltrans and the UC-Davis Road
Ecology Center. The moderator of each session is listed in
the preliminary program. The moderator will contact
his/her session presenters by no later than July 27, 2005,
to discuss logistics and other items. At that time,
technical session presenters are expected to inform the moderator
of any changes needed to his/her presentation listing(s),
including author name(s), paper title(s), &c.
Submission Requirements
Technical session presenters are required to pre-register for the conference and to submit the following:
- By August 19: an electronic copy of
your PowerPoint presentation (if applicable) to be pre-loaded
on the conference laptop assigned to your meeting room.
(Please remember to bring with you a back-up of your presentation
on CD-ROM!) Please send your PPT file to Cynthia
McBride (919-515-8657).
- By September 9: your paper for publication
in the final proceedings (see Guidelines
for Authors), along with a signed copyright
release form, indicating we have your permission to include
your materials in the conference, the published proceedings,
and all other printed and electronic documentation generated
from the ICOET 2005 program. Please send you paper submission
to Neil Koomen
(919-515-8623).
Use of Audiovisuals
Technical session presenters will have access to a podium and microphone, video projector, Windows XP PC laptop (w/CD-ROM drive), and projection screen in each meeting room.
A speaker-ready room for reviewing audiovisuals will also be available for the duration of the conference.
If you have any audiovisual needs beyond these, please contact CTE.
Please note the following guidelines:
- Plan on preparing one slide per minute of presentation. In other words, since your presentation time allotment is 15 minutes, you should not exceed approximately 15 PPT slides.
- Make sure any high-resolution photos or graphics that you plan to incorporate into your PPT file are formatted for
computer screen resolution, not print resolution. Please minimize use of animations; PPT files should not exceed
10 megabytes (that's 10,234 KB) in size; and make sure your text contrasts effectively with the background and
that the point size is not smaller than 22 point type! Make sure your PPT slides can be viewed by a large audience
(~200-500 people).
- CTE will not provide handouts of presentations at the conference. If you would like to provide handouts of your presentation to the audience, you will need to plan to either bring them with you or have them copied at the Hilton San Diego Resort at your own expense.
POSTER SESSION
Overview
Due to the record number of abstracts received for the 2005 program, two (2) poster sessions have been scheduled for Tuesday,
