Besides a series of plenary talks by invited speakers
of approx. 1h., there will be room for a very limited number
of short communications of about 30 min. A Poster Session will be organized
as well.
You can choose to register yourself for a poster
or a talk.
Inscription for a talk / poster
If you want to inscribe yourself for a short talk
or poster, please proceed as follows:
- Click on the "Talk" or "Poster" buttons on the registration
form. Clicking on the "Poster" button means that you choose to present
a poster, while the "Talk" button means that it may be a talk (if you are
among the selected) or a poster otherwise.
- Fill in the related part of the form, i.e. give a
title and an abstract. If you clicked on the Talk or Poster buttons your
registration is not accepted without a title. It
is not compulsory to provide abstract immediately, but it is requested
before the August 11, 2011 deadline.
- Any reference to published material is welcome at
the end of the abstract field.
- You can change your mind and request a talk/poster
or modify your title/abstract at any time before the deadline by entering
again the form (click modify button) with the password you have chosen.
- Proposals that do not contain a clear title and
abstract at the date of the deadline will not be considered.
- If the title/abstract fields contain formulae, these
should be encoded in plain LaTeX (no macros, please). Avoid, however, any
preambles/macros/documentclass etc... These will be provided by us when
we shall prepare the micro-proceedings.
After the deadline August 11, 2011, the title
and abstract fields in the registration form will not be modifiable any
more. If you want to make changes to your title/abstract after this date,
please write an e-mail to conformal_nospam@bo.infn.it . However, your new proposal must undergo re-examination by the scientific
board.
Selection procedure
- Posters:
If you choose to present a poster, the only criterion applied is
whether the subject is relevant to the topics of the Workshop.
- Short Talks:
As the place available for short talks is very limited, we are obliged
to proceed to a selection of applications of speakers. It will take
place soon after the August 11, 2011 deadline.
Those requesting to talk that we are unable to accomodate will be offered the possibility to prepare a poster.
The selection criteria for talks will be the following (in order of importance):
- relevance of the proposed talk to the main topics of the Workshop;
- younger speakers will be given an opportunity.
Results of the selection will be communicated to the
interested people by e-mail. Soon after, the definitive program will be
published on the Web page of the workshop. Details will be circulated
around end of August 2011.
Micro-proceedings
A collection of titles/abstracts of the presented talks/posters
will be published on the Web and also in a little booklet to be
distributed to the participants. So the higher the care you have in
preparing your abstract, possibly with refs. to your paper(s) on the
subject, the better you are advertising your work.
We plan to collect the slides of the talks to create a sort of Web
Proceedings of the Conference. If somebody prepares transparencies for
their talk in one of LyX, LaTeX, FoilTeX, SliTeX, Postscript, Pdf or
OpenOffice formats, we greatly appreciate sending us a copy of the
file(s) in order to distribute them electronically after the Workshop.
The transparencies should be sent as attachment by e-mail to conformal_nospam@bo.infn.it, with subject "Lecture notes: first_name
family_name".
Those who prepare their slides by handwriting will be asked after their
talk to leave the transparencies to local organizers of the conference
for scanning.
Proceedings - At
the time of writing the present notes, we have not yet decided if there
will be any proceedings of the Workshop. The very limited budget at our
disposal strongly discourages this possibility. We shall keep our
participants informed.
