Technical Program

Outstanding Student Presentation Award (Congraturations!)

Oral presentation

• Kazuki Sawayama (Kyushu Univ., Japan)

• Bokani Nthaba (Kyushu Univ., Japan / Botswana International Univ. of Science and Technology, Botswana)

• Josue Fonseca (Stanford Univ., United States of America)

Poster presentation

• Utako Watanabe (Tokyo Metropolitan Univ., Japan)

Technical Program

• The online program has been released. Please check it from here (link).

Important (updated.)

• We use Zoom for the oral session and Remo for the poster session.

• Desktop, laptop, and smartphone are supported, but a tablet is NOT supported in Remo.

• Here are the Remo user guide in English (link) and in Japanese (link).

Presentation

• Language

  • All slides/posters and presentations should be given in English.

• Presentation styles

  • Oral session via Zoom

    • Real-time online presentation:

      • Speakers are required to have real-time online presentations and discussions.

      • Each speaker has 20 min including the time for the change of speakers. So, 13 min presentation and 5 min discussion are expected.

      • Information about Zoom: https://zoom.us/meetings

    • Pre-recorded video presentation (optional):

      • If speakers are concerned that real-time presentations will be difficult due to time difference or network connection, they can submit pre-recorded videos to the secretariat. Before submitting videos, please contact the program committee via email (segj14th-program [@] googlegroups.com).

      • The length of pre-recorded video should be shorter than 13 minutes. The video will be played via zoom only at the scheduled time, and deleted after the symposium.

  • Poster session via Remo (updated.)

    • Free style poster presentations are available using PDF poster, video, presentation with sharing screen. At least a PDF poster should be posted on the ‘whiteboard’ in the assigned virtual table during the symposium. A0 size landscape poster is recommended.

    • Miro whiteboard is implemented in Remo. Many features are available on the Miro whiteboard. This page (link) explains the features of the Miro whiteboard.

    • Authors are required to have real-time online discussion during the core time (15:30-17:30, October 19) of the poster session.

    • All posters must be submitted to the program committee prior to the symposium. The posters are placed on the tables in Remo by the committee. Before submitting the posters, please contact the program committee via email (segj14th-program [@] googlegroups.com).

    • Information about Remo: https://remo.co/ , and Demo video (Link)

• No-show policy

  • • If neither the real-time presentation nor the pre-recorded video is given in the scheduled time of the oral presentation and if no PDF poster is given in the core time of the poster session, the presentation will be withdrawn and the extended abstract will be omitted from the proceedings.

    • Presenters are expected to prepare their own personal computer and internet environment necessary for participating in the symposium online. If speakers are unable to make a presentation due to any internet connection problems, the titles are considered ‘no show’ in the symposium. The organizing committee is not responsible for the speaker-side network problem. To avoid this situation, please send the pre-recorded video to the secretariat in advance if you are concerned about the real-time online presentation.

• Confidential policy

  • • Only registered people can attend the virtual sessions of the SEGJ international symposium.

    • The SEGJ committee will require attendees not to record, screen capture and download any presentations. Attendees must agree to this when they register.

    • The SEGJ committee will not record both oral and poster presentations as official records of the committee.

    • The SEGJ committee will not open any videos or presentation files after the symposium.

    • When some presenters provide videos to be played in the real-time sessions for some reason (network issues, time differences, etc...), the SEGJ committee will definitely delete all the files just after the symposium.
