Format of Presentations:
The sessions are comprised of interactive poster presentations. The
emphasis will be on visual presentations accompanied by dialogues with
small groups of people. Most people informally interact with presenters
in this venue around the posters. A brief presentation to the group at
large precedes the poster period. The poster period is followed by full
group discussion. Full papers or short summaries should be made
available as hard copy handouts.
