To avoid software compatibility problems (MS PowerPoint), speakers are advised to save their PowerPoint presentation in 'pack-n-go' format AND bring a backup PDF version of their presentation. 'Pack-n-go' format is used when burning a presentation to a CD for use on another computer that may or may not have your current version of PowerPoint installed. It installs a viewer capability. The file should be saved as 'Package for CD' under the 'File' tab in PowerPoint 2003; under the 'File > Publish' tab in PowerPoint 2007; under 'File > Save & Send > Package Presentation for CD' in PowerPoint 2010; and under 'File > Export > Package Presentation for CD' in PowerPoint 2013.
Please ensure that you meet your presenters before the start of the session and that you know who is presenting each paper. Ensure that the presentations have been loaded onto the computer. You will be provided with a timer and are expected to ensure that the session keeps to good time to allow people to switch between sessions with minimal disruption if necessary. Laser pointers will be provided. Please ensure that these are returned at the end of each presentation.
If a speaker is absent, please do not change the session schedule, which may cause people to miss a presentation they had intended to listen to.
