Suggestions from the Team:

 Participants are encouraged to make a conscious effort to maintain the quality of their paper in all aspects ranging from formatting, content and language.  Kindly make sure the labeling of figures, tables etc., are made appropriately, this will aid during the scrutinizing of the papers and will also avoid unnecessary confusion.  Make sure the references are suitably numbered and the references are quoted completed. Kindly refer to IEEE two column format provided in the rules and Regulations page for details on formatting of references.  Kindly provide your e-mail address and contact number besides your name in the paper that you submit.  For selected participants, while making the final presentation, please avoid using pictures as background for the slides, avoid using heavy striking colors / gradients as backgrounds and do not fill up the entire slide with long sentences.  Please give a lot of importance towards clarity of presentation, convey information as points (bullets, numbering etc.), using flow charts wherever possible, give physical interpretation template simple and neat.  Develop a good structure of your presentation, for example – you can structure it like this:

• 1. The problem being considered.
• 2. Why the problem was chosen (or what is the need to work on the problem).
• 3. What is the current scenario (or solution) for tackling the problem?
• 4. Why have you chosen your method as mean to solve the problem?
• 5. Description of the method
• 6. Explain your contribution and novelty your method.
• 7. Results and discussions (comparison etc.).
• 8. References

 Keep the total number of slides to just the required level, a quick powerful presentation is always more worthy than a long, slow dull presentation.  Choose your number of slides based on the allotted time for presentation and always allow at least 5 minutes for question and answers.

Things to be brought along with you for the presentation:

• 1. A valid College ID Card.
• 2. Two hard copies (print out) of their paper.
