Oral presentation rooms will be equipped with the following items:

We recommend that presenters bring their presentation files in a format compatible with one of the above applications, and stored in a CD-ROM or a USB thumb drive (flash disk). Alternatively, they can use their own notebook computer. If you choose to use your own notebook computer, we recommend that you bring a backup copy of the presentation in a CD-ROM or a USB thumb drive.

All presenters can upload their presentation files into the computer in their assigned presentation room on the morning of their presentation from 08:15 hrs onwards, or during the coffee/tea breaks. In each room, there will be a technician in-charge who can be approached for assistance.
