Congratulations again on your accepted CSNet 2023 short paper.
At CSNet 2023, short papers will be presented during the Poster Sessions, which are going to be during the Coffee Breaks on October 16th, 17th and 18th.
As we are getting closer to CSNet 2023, please find below the instructions for formatting and presenting your poster.
General

– Each poster session will be 30 minutes long and there will be three posters per session.
– The Authors(s) are expected to:
- Be set up prior to the session
- Be present at their poster for the entire 30 minute session.
- Sign-in to register before presenting your poster.

- Answer questions and interact as appropriate.
- Remove their posters at the end of the Poster Session.
Setup
– Poster boards reside in the room where the coffee breaks take place.
– The area for your posters is: 4 foot (~121cm) height by 3 foot (91cm) width per poster.
– “Pins” or “blue tag” will be provided at the registration desk to attach posters to the poster boards.
Suggestions for a good poster presentation
– The title of the poster should be displayed in large font, 36 – 60 point, to help the audience find your paper.
– Your main point or conclusion should be in large font if it is not covered in the title.
– A font below 18 point is difficult for the audience to read. Try not to include any smaller print on your presentation.
– Avoid large sections of text in all capitals; it can be difficult to read. Use CAPITALS and/or bold to emphasize your points
– Display the highlights of your presentation in larger font, 24 – 40. Use colour to emphasize the important points.
– Pictures, charts and graphs are very effective when kept simple. Too much detail will obscure the main points. Use colour!
– Information flow is most effective if it is from left to right and top to bottom.
– Your poster should be as self explanatory as possible. Attract the audience’s attention and then answer detailed questions.
– If you want to interact with certain audience members later, have cards with your contact information available.
– The complete paper is available in the Conference Proceedings that all attendees will have. Refer the audience to the paper for detailed information.
