|  |  | ITiCSE 2003 Poster Presentation Guidelines*Posters are informal sessions in which presenters stand next to their 
poster display and discuss it with other participants.  A poster  is 45 
minutes in length and the presenter should be present the entire session.   
A poster is not a paper.  It should not try to produce all your work, but 
should provoke questions.  Please focus on major findings and leave the 
details to the full paper, if one is associated with your poster.
Your poster should not be a copy of your paper displayed on the poster 
board.  If you have a full paper associated with the poster, you may want 
to bring 25 copies of your paper to distribute during the poster session.
 
A poster is a visual presentation of information.  It relies sparingly on 
verbal print and heavily on graphs, charts, tables, and pictures to 
communicate information.   Please make sure to use colors to attract 
attention, pictures, diagrams, and figures as appropriate to describe your 
work.
 
The title, authors' names, and affiliations should be clearly identified 
at the top of the poster.  The title line(s) should be readable from at 
least 2 meters away.  We suggest the following:
 
You should aim for your presentation to contain no more than 300 words.  
Please remember that this is an international conference and words such as 
class, lab, course, etc. may mean different things to different audiences. Heading/Title: 2.5 cm in height (72 pt)
 Name(s) and Affiliation(s) of authors: 2 cm in height (48 pt)
 Body Text: 1 cm in height (28 pt)
 
Posters will be mounted on poster boards and displayed on easels.  Please 
prepare your poster assuming an area of 150 cm (height) by 110 cm (width).   
All material including poster boards, easels, glue, tacks, staples will be 
provided to you at the conference.  The only thing you need to bring is 
your presentation.
