- In case of joint presentations, both people can speak and one could advance the slides
- In case you want to show a video then please share the YouTube link of the video with the session support member
- When you are not speaking, keep your mike on mute. This is very important to avoid sound/audio issues in the conference.
- Please ensure that you finish your presentation within the time allotted (10 minutes usually). The discussion session of the papers will be after 5-6 paper presenters so that individual question answer session does not prolong and affect the presentation of others.
