Ø      All the Conference Sessions will be held on the campus of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

Ø      Lunch/Welcome Reception/Refreshment/Harbour Cruise and Banquet Dinner will be provided by IAPR ICB 2006 organization for registered participants.

Ø     All the posters will be mounted on poster boards that are 4 feet wide and 6 feet high. Authors can fix their posters in the designated boards for presentation. 

Ø      Oral presentations will be a maximum 25 minutes plus 5 minutes for questions and discussion. A video projector will be available to project output from your laptop computer, as well as audio output. If you have other audio-visual requirements, please email icba@comp.polyu.edu.hk

Ø      Short Oral presentations will be a maximum 4 minutes plus 1 minute for questions and discussion. A video projector will be available to project output from your laptop computer, as well as audio output. If you have other audio-visual requirements, please email icba@comp.polyu.edu.hk

Ø      Poster presentations will include a one-minute overview, for which you may use the video projection system. Be sure to make it brief - don't try to "give the talk," but instead communicate the basic topic and idea at a high level. Consider this as an advertisement to interest people in getting the details during the poster sessions.

Ø      A fully equipped meeting room is available for the network access by participants.
