Presentation Guidelines

SSDM 2021 will be held as an All-VIRTUAL conference. The time schedule will be along with Japan Standard Time (JST). The invited talk consists of 25-min LIVE presentation and 5-min Q&A, while the regular talk is a combination of 10-min ON-DEMAND video previewing and 2-min LIVE short presentation with 5-min Q&A. The authors of regular talks are required to UPLOAD an On-demand Video and to LIVESTREAM their short presentations followed by Q&A in a pre-scheduled time slot.

  • Invited paper: Live ONLY (25-min presentation + 5-min Q&A)
  • Regular paper: On-demand video (10-min) + Live (2-min short presentation + 5-min Q&A)

The on-demand video and live short presentation are preferred to be conducted by the first author. However, one or both of these presentations by one of the coauthors can be considered if you have unavoidable circumstances. In that case, please inform the secretariat (ssdm2021-abs@or.knt.co.jp) of the situation.

  • * Please note that if the first author does not conduct either on-demand video or short oral presentation, that paper will be out of the Young Researcher Award candidates.
