Lightning talks

Lightning talk sessions will be held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday lunchtimes from 13:00 till 14:00 in the Esino Lario room Border

Procedure

The idea of a lightning talk is to present an idea or a project -- it is not a finished or complete academic talk. Skip the implementation details -- tell us why your project is interesting and why we should care. Plan to present only one idea or project .

All talks are 5 minutes maximum. If you use slides, please prepare these on your laptop and have them ready to go. Please attend the whole session and line up ahead of your talk so that things can move quickly.

  • If you wish to make a presentation, please write your presentation topic and sign your name (~~~~) at your preferred day.
    • Signup is on a "first come, first served" basis.
  • If you cannot attend or give your talk, please remove yourself from the list above by editing the page and removing your talk.
  • If you cannot give your talk at the scheduled time, please edit the page, move your talk to your desired session.
  • If there are too many talks in a session and they don't balance out by Friday, individual authors will be asked to move.
