common interests. You can share information, set goals and mix and mingle.
This is also the place to hold meetings, meet research and business contacts
or simply take a moment and enjoy the wine and cheese.
You can explore the presentations and identify those colleagues with
whom you wish to further pursue contacts in view of possible joint
endeavours.
To guarantee that the time is well used the networking sessions will
be structured through previously reviewed presentations and clustering. Below
you will find the detailed instructions regarding the content areas for which
presentations are requested; the way to prepare and propose a presentation
abstract; and the relevant deadline dates.
The space of the Conference
Networking sessions will be
arranged so as to create clusters of presentations with common affinities.
Thus we intend to have people with potential common interests presenting near
each other so as to facilitate their interaction.
Read the instructions that follow
below and send the abstract of your proposal to Susan Hazanshazan
atnetvision.net.il
or to Dov Winerdovw at savion.huji.ac.il
. The approved proposals will be presentedat
the Conference Networking sessions..
The goal of the Conference
Networking sessions is to provide a showcase for
you to present your work in a clear and concise manner. This will enable you
to network with colleagues of similar interests. Your work should be prepared
to be displayed on a board 1 x 2 meters in the exhibition hall during the
conference.
The goal of the poster sessions is to provide a showcase for
you to present your work in a clear and concise manner and will be displayed on
a sheet of paper 80 x120 centimeters that will be pinned to a wood board
1 X 2 meters. You may wish to plastic laminate this sheet of paper although
it is not a requirement.
Design the sheet in which you present your work to be visually
attractive to conference attendees
Select
type that is at least 12 point, 18 point for headings so that your
poster may be read at a distance of 1 meter.
Focus
on your main message clearly – describe your work in short paragraphs or
bullet points.
Some
conference attendees may only have a few minutes
to understand your work and you need to present your message
effectively.
