Poster Session Instructions

Important: the dimensions of your poster should not exceed 120 cm (height) x 90 cm (width)

The ICRS-10/RPS 2004 Scientific and Organizing Committees believe that  posters do not penalise authors. On the contrary, the organization of poster sessions can contribute to foster and enhance interaction between the authors and the participants.

The ICRS-10 & RPS-2004 Organising committee has therefore decided to organize:

  •  Three sessions of poster presentations during Monday, 10 May, Tuesday, 11 May and Thursday, 14 May from 14:00 to 18:20
  • A fourth poster session on Wednesday, 12th May, starting at 10:20 a.m. through 3:45 p.m.

Please check the Conference Programme in order to ascertain the schedule for the display of your poster.

Poster sessions will take place in the hall in front of the Niemeyer room, at the hotel.

Boards will be provided for display of your poster. The place for your display will be clearly identified and some help and the required material will be available as required.

The Conference Organization will provide:

  1. Display boards 2.40 x 1.50 m for use with velcro or push pins each holding posters up to the size of A0 format (841 X 1188 mm).  
  2. Marking pens, push pins, scissors, velcro ribbons and "sticky" tape
  3. On request, electricity plugs for connecting your PC for presentation of animations and demonstrations of code performance will be available.
  It is recommended that you provide handouts with the complete paper, as the proceedings with the full papers will be distributed later. You may wish to have also a supply of  business cards available, and other information of your choice.

    Make sure that in the afternoon around 18:30 your poster is removed including all your materials from the display board and table.

    Please read  the  “Tips for Poster Presentations” for guidance to ensure quality of presentation and for facilitating communication.
