Lunch and Farewell

Parallel Sessions are 90 minutes in duration with each paper allotted 30 minutes. The recommended allocation of these 30 minutes is approximately 20 minutes of presentation time, while reserving 5 minutes for Q&As. We ask all speakers to arrive 5 minutes before the start of the session and to set up their technical equipment. For a technically smooth presentation, please bring your presentation on a flash drive. In the interest of incentive compatibility, the last person to present in a session is the ex officio Session Chair.
