SESSIONS:
The WSEAS US Branch can
accept proposal for Special Sessions from qualified scientists that want to
contribute to this event. Special sessions have the prestige of a really
targeted audience. Many successful WSEAS Conferences started in the
beginning as Special Sessions or Workshops in some previous WSEAS
conference.You could submit by email the title of
your session, the topics of the session and a preliminary list of potential
authors that could contribute to the session as authors and/or reviewers of
papers. Attached to your email you must have a short CV or a link to your
web page.

COLLABORATORS:
If your
Laboratory, University, Research Center etc... wants to be a partner in the AMERICAN
CONFERENCE CONFERENCE on APPLIED MATHEMATICS,
then you have to contact
the Organizers by email. Please, include the
word WSEAS somewhere in the Subject of your message. If you do not write the
word WSEAS, somewhere in the Subject of your message, your message will be
deleted from our Servers. This policy protects our Servers from unsolicited
email (spam). If you click in the following link, the word WSEAS in the
Subject will appear automatically. Do not delete it. If you want to send
other email to WSEAS in the future, please, have also WSEAS in the Subject
of your email.)

PRESENTATION:
General Information
Please check the session schedule on the program that you will
receive by email after the registration deadline to see which day and time
you are presenting. The duration of a presentation slot is 20 minutes (15
minutes for your lecture and 5 minutes for questions-discussion). An LCD
projector and a computer (MS Windows XP) with a CD-ROM drive, USB ports, and
presentation software (MS PowerPoint, Adobe Acrobat Reader) will be
available in all the conference rooms for lecture presentations.
Also, a Laser Pointer will be available for you, but it is highly
recommended to have your own pointer in case of emergencies.
Preparation of Visuals
Before the beginning of each session, each presenter must deliver
his CV (Short Biography) which must be printed out according to the format:
http://www.worldses.org/drafts/biography.doc
Please note that individuals using computer projection must bring a CD or
USB memory key containing their presentation. Speakers should arrive in
their session room 10 minutes before the start of their session to hand the
presenter’s personal data sheet (biography) to the chairperson.
General Considerations
* Limit the number of words per visual to no more than 30.
* Leave space, at least the height of a capital letter, between lines of
text.
* All fonts, including those on graphs, should be 18 point or larger.
Graphs and charts should have bold lines and symbols that contrast sharply
with the background.
* Your presentation time is about 15 minutes, leaving about 5 minutes for
questions from the audience.
* A reasonable presentation time for each slide is about 2 minutes, as any
shorter interval will make it difficult for the audience to understand.
* Do not waste visuals where they are not needed. Use them where a picture,
chart, diagram, or cartoon will help.
* Tables of figures are hard to read and understand quickly, use pie charts
or column graphs instead.
* If it takes longer than 10 seconds to comprehend a visual, then there’s
too much material in it.
* Do not put anything on the visual if you don't need it. Tell what each
visual is all about, but do not read from it. Keep it on screen, as long as
your talk refers to it.
