QFS98 -- Presentation (talks and posters) Information:


Poster Size. In an effort to provide more horizontal space for poster access, we have decided to adopt a horizontal poster format. We will preserve the typical AREA of posters, but will provide for poster dimensions: 1.5 meter (HORIZONTAL) by 1.0 meter (VERTICAL) .


Oral Talks. Oral talks will be allowed a total of 20 minutes, and we request speakers to allow a few minutes (included in the 20 minutes) for questions specific to their talk.


Invited Talks. Invited talks will be allowed 40 minutes, and we request invited speakers to allow about 3 to 5 minutes (as part of the 40 minutes) for questions specific to their talk.


Discussion Period. We have built in discussion sessions at the end of each session of the conference (i.e. before each break in the conference). These discussion sessions are provided as an opportunity to discuss more fully the content of the session, or any talk in the session, and to bring forward related information which might deepen understanding and perspective. It is intended that these sessions be verbal, but participants who might wish to show one viewgraph transparency to support their comments are free to do so if it is relevant to the session and will deepen and envliven the discussion. Discussion periods will typically be 15 minutes in length and are intended to provoke interactions.
