Dear authors,
This page has been composed specifically for your information about the parallel sessions of full papers and posters’ presentations:
About the blended format: UPDATED!
- All parallel sessions will be developed online.
- Microsoft Teams® is the chosen communication platform. You need a license to use it as regular software, but its use within a web browser is free.
- In order to access each of the scheduled segments of the conference which are reserved for registered attendees you need a link. You can find all the necessary links in this page: [CLICK HERE]
- When clicking on a given link for a given segment your browser will take you to the correspondent Teams meeting.
About the agenda and timing: UPDATED!
- Keep always in mind that all schedules have been composed with Central European Time, UTC +01:00.
- Up to seven different parallel sessions have been scheduled: three on Thursday, three on Friday and one on Saturday. All parallel sessions have been programmed in the European afternoon which is the American morning, but the one on Saturday when just European authors have been included.
- Each parallel session includes about five presentations. Please, find the detailed agenda of presentations: [CLICK HERE]
- The order within each parallel session is not definitive. Your session chair might contact you by email providing specific information.
- You will be given from 10 to 12 minutes to make your presentation. After each presentation or when all of them have been completed a lapse for questions and debate has been scheduled. Your session chair might contact you by email providing specific information.
About the participation:
- Keep in mind that at least one of the authors has to be registered in order to make your presentation and to have your manuscript or poster included in the conference proceedings. These proceedings will include the name of all authors of each manuscript or poster.
- Registered authors are those supposed to make the presentation. Days after the event closing, registered authors will get a certificate of presentation additional to the certificate of attendance to the event.
- Very few posters have been received in this edition of the conference. Therefore, occasional posters will be presented along with full papers during regular parallel sessions.
About the dynamic of the session:
- All sessions will be handled in English.
- Please, make sure that your computer is equipped with a camera, a microphone and earphones. The use of speakers is not recommended since they usually entail uncomfortable echoes and feedback sounds.
- Each session will have the participation of a session chair, a floor manager, an IT manager, authors presenting their full papers or posters, and possible audience composed by other registered attendees. The session chair will anchor the session, give the word to the different authors, monitor the time and coordinate the debate. The floor manager will manage the chat of the meeting letting the session chair know if there are questions from the audience. Connectivity issues have to be addressed to the floor manager who will contact the IT manager if needed.
- All authors are invited to use a PowerPoint presentation or similar to support their intervention. Presentations DO NOT have to be emailed to the organization. Each author will screen share and will control the sequence of slides.
- On a voluntary basis, authors can record their presentations and email the MP4 or AVI file to the organization to arcc.2020@upv.es if they fear some connectivity issues. In any case, the online attendance of all authors during their parallel session is required.
Before and after the session:
- All authors are requested to enter their session 15 minutes prior to its official starting time.
- Once the session time has finished, those authors and attendees which wish to carry on with the debate can stay in the meeting or switch to the channel called “Lounge” where they will be able to meet attendees from any other room who wish to debate or just mingle.
