因医疗、宗教或其他原因对餐饮有特殊要求的代表，请通过邮件告知我们。我们将尽力满足您的需求。
5. Presentation发言
All the conference rooms are equipped with a PC/projector/loudspeaker for ppt presentation. All you need for presentation is to bring your files in a USB drive.
所有会议室均配备电脑、投影仪、扬声器用于进行幻灯片展示。您只需将展示内容拷贝至优盘带至会议室即可。
Please note that the time allocated for each paper in the parallel sessions is strictly limited to 30 minutes. We generally expect you to complete the presentation within 20 minutes and leave 10 minutes for questions and answers (Q&A). You will be reminded by our student assistant of the time left for your presentation at the last 5, 1, or 0 minute. You may continue your presentation after that, but your Q&A time will be reduced accordingly, so that your total time does not exceed 30 minutes.
请注意，分会场每篇论文的发言时间严格控制在30分钟内。建议您在20分钟内完成发言，留10分钟进行现场问答。会场有学生助理在20分钟发言时间剩余5、1、0分钟时举牌提醒。您可在20分钟后继续发言，但是问答时间也将相应缩短，总时间不超过30分钟。
The parallel sessions are divided into sessions of 90 minutes (for three presentations) or 120 minutes (for four presentations). With rare exceptions, the first presenter of each session is supposed to chair the session of three or four papers. In case the first presenter is absent, the second presenter is expected to chair the session.
分会场每组发言时间为90（三篇论文）或120分钟（四篇论文）。如会议手册未明确指定，则各分会场第一位发言人为该场主持人。若第一位发言人缺席，则由第二位发言人主持。
When a presenter is absent, we generally expect the 30 minutes allocated to this presenter to be left unfilled with another presentation, and the next presenter should only use the 30 minutes allocated to him/her on the schedule. This will give the audience a fair chance to plan their activities.
若某位发言人缺席，相应的发言所占用的30分钟应予空置，即所有发言严格按照制定的时段进行，以便听会者合理安排时间。
We look forward to seeing all of you in Guangzhou soon.
真诚期待在广州与大家相聚！
