Posters will be presented in three daily sessions, indicated in the program. The poster presentation area is "Mariage Grande" located on the 8th floor of Kyoto Avanti, where the ICST conference hall is located.
Each poster should be sized smaller than 119cm (H) x 84cm (W).
Posters will be displayed only on the date of your presentation session. Check the date and put your poster up during the morning break or during lunch time. Assigned poster numbers are posted in the upper right-hand corners of the corresponding poster boards. Thumb-tacks will be provided at each board. There are assistants assigned to the poster exhibition area to help you.
Arrive in the poster session area well in advance to your poster session. Please stand by your poster until the end of the entire session to engage in discussions about your research with session participants.
Remove the poster by the end of the day. We recommend to remove the poster soon after the poster presentation session or dinner time on November 1st and December 2nd. You can't access the poster presentation area after the end of poster presentation session on December 2nd.
On 30th November or 1st December, it is recommended you remove your poster
immediately following you poster session or during dinner.
