Presentations
Presentation time is critical: each paper is allocated 25 minutes. We recommend that presentation of your slides should take about 20-21 minutes, leaving 4-5 minutes for introduction, summary, and questions from the audience. To achieve appropriate timing, organize your slides or viewgraphs around the points you intend to make, using no more than one slide per minute. A reasonable strategy is to allocate about 2 minutes per slide when there are equations or important key points to make, and one minute per slide when the content is less complex. Slides attract and hold attention, and reinforce what you say - provided you keep them simple and easy to read. Plan on covering at most 6 points per slide, covered by 6 to 12 spoken sentences and no more than about two spoken minutes.
Make sure each of your key points is easy to explain with aid of the material on your slides. Do not read directly from the slide during your presentation. You shouldn't need to prepare a written speech, although it is often a good idea to prepare the opening and closing sentences in advance. It is very important that you rehearse your presentation in front of an audience before you give your presentation at IEEE-THEMES.
A computer-driven slideshow for use with a data projector is recommended for your talk at IEEE-THEMES. The presentation room will be equipped with a computer, a data projector, a microphone, a lectern, and a pointing device. If you need any other audio or visual equipment, such as a PAL or NTSC VHS player, please send a request for such equipment by email to the ICIP 2011 organizers. Such requests must be received by one month before the conference date. Failure to make prior arrangements may mean that the equipment will not be available to you.
