• Oral presentation – At the venue

Guideline for preparing your Oral Presentation:

Prepare a multimedia presentation file using Microsoft PowerPoint or similar software with a title page:

• Contents: Your presentation should contain a number of sides: A title page, background, rationale, materials, methodology, results, and major conclusions, recommendations for future study. It may also contain animations and video clips.

• Format: Use the appropriate font size for each slide.

• Time management: Limit the number of slides in such a way that you can finish your talk within 10 minutes. Keep 3 minutes for the discussion on your presentation and 2 minutes for the changeover. The Session Chair will keep count of the time limit and remind the presenter with a call bell. Immediately after the end of the presentation, a discussion session will commence. In the discussion, the audience or the Chair/Judge can ask a few questions regarding the presentation.

The Mood of Presentation:

Please note that authors do not require to submit a full paper to participate or present at the conference. However, authors are invited to submit a full draft paper for special issue journal publication for all accepted abstracts. Please submit your draft paper for journal publication by the due date. 

Is there any paper template to prepare a full paper?

There is no specific template for the draft paper; please use MS word to prepare your manuscript. The article should contain a title, a list of authors and their affiliations, abstracts, an introduction, methodology, results, a discussion, conclusions, and references. Use any standard referencing style for the manuscript.

What will happen once we receive your draft paper?

Once we receive our draft paper, the 'similarity index' will be checked for each submitted paper using Turnitin. The acceptable total Turnitin percentage is anything below 20% in the similarity report, provided that the similarity percentage is no more than 2% from a single source. Please check your paper before submitting it to us.

The paper will then be blind peer-reviewed by two independent reviewers, and the decision, including reviewers' comments, will be notified to the authors. Authors need to revise their paper based on the recommendation and submit the revised paper incorporating all review comments by the due date, which will be notified in the review notification via email. Also, the authors' responses to the reviewers' comments must be submitted in a separate word document. The final decision will be sent to the corresponding author to format the paper according to the special issue journal requirements.

Based on the contents of your paper, the editorial office will decide which articles are best suited for which journal, as each journal has its focus. An updated list of special issue journals will be available on the conference website.
