Instructions for Authors Presenting at ICSE 2024

Time Slots and Lengths

Please check the ICSE 2024 complete program for your time slot and presentation length. For a 15-minute presentation slot, prepare for 10 minutes of presentation and 5 minutes of Q&A. For a 7-minute presentation slot, prepare for 5 minutes of presentation and 2 minutes of Q&A.

Please go to your allocated room 15-20 minutes before the session start time to meet with the Session Chair, review the pronunciation of your name, and familiarize yourself with the room and AV.

Presentation Format

Your presentation needs to be in either PowerPoint or PDF format.

The CCB (Centro Cultural de Belém) has a special smart lectern that all presenters must use; therefore, you will be unable to use your laptop.

The slide ratio for your presentation should be set to 16:9. To change the ratio on PPT, go to the ‘Design’ tab at the top, then select ‘Slide Size’ (usually located on the far right) here you will find the ratio options.

Presentation Upload

  • You will need to bring your PowerPoint or PDF presentation to the Conference on either a USB or have it saved on an accessible web drive such as a Google Drive or Dropbox so that you can easily provide your presentation to the AV technician.

  • A speaker preparation room will be located in the Speaker Room (exact location: to the right-hand side of the registration desk).

  • Speakers should report to the speaker preparation room at least 1 hour before their presentation.

  • If you have any video files in your presentation, please have these files saved separately on your USB or accessible web drive.

  • The Speakers’ Preparation Room will be open at the following times:
    Wednesday 17 April: 8:00am – 4:30pm
    Thursday 18 April: 8:00am – 4:30pm
    Friday 19 April: 8:00am – 4:30pm

Audiovisual inclusions

The below audiovisual will be provided in all session rooms:

  • Screen and projector with sound

  • Smart lectern with in-built screen and presentations pre-loaded

Speakers will be unable to use their own laptops as this will cause delays in the program. We ask all speakers to kindly use the equipment provided and follow the instructions above to load your presentation in the speakers’ preparation room.

You can visit the Speaker Room or the registration desk if you have any inquiries.
