In addition to invited speakers, the conference program will include also free communications in three presentation formats, i.e. oral podium presentation, defended poster, non-defended poster.

Oral Podium Presentation: 8 minute presentation using Power Point, followed by 2 min of discussion in response to questions from the audience. Session is led by a designated Chair person.

Defended Poster will hang for display, and in addition, the presenting Author will give a brief (3 minutes) oral presentation and discussion during a designated poster session. Sessions will be led by designated a Chair person.

Non-defended Poster will be displayed without any formal oral presentation by the author.

The participants are encouraged to submit their contributions. The authors are supposed to indicate their preferred type of presentation on the registration form (see section registration).
