GUIDELINES FOR PREPARING SLIDES PRESENTATION FILE

 

• The slides should serve to introduce the work and provide a high-level overview in 10-15 slides. In that sense, they are expected to be different from the set of slides used in a live presentation.

 

• Those viewing the slides will have immediate access to the paper, the “next best thing” to having the author presenting in person.

 

• The first slide should include title, authors, and reference to HiPC 2021. The final page should include authors’ contact information for follow-up questions.
