To authorise the VTS 2021 organisers to take this action, the corresponding author of each accepted paper must opt-in for the sharing and posting of the videos of the talks in the copyright form when submitting the camera-ready PDFs.<\/p>\n Please remember that while you grant VTS 2021 organisers the right to display and share your videos, you retain full ownership<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Live sessions will be managed using Zoom. The detailed schedule will be communicated soon. During the live sessions of the symposium, each paper will be allocated to a 15-minute slot<\/strong> that will be primarily used to answer questions from the audience. Each presenter will begin with a brief presentation of the paper and its main insights, which will serve as an introduction to the paper. This presentation should be shorter than 7 minutes<\/strong>\u00a0to allow ample time to answer audience questions. Experience from recent online conferences suggests a large fraction of the audience would have already watched the 20-minute presentation or read the paper, so leaving sufficient time for questions is very important.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Each paper should have a registered author at the normal IEEE member (50USD) or non-member (75USD) full fee \u2013 separate registrations are required for authors with multiple papers. VTS 2021 will have the same very low registration fees for authors and non-author attendees.<\/p>\n Please register at https:\/\/tttc-vts.org\/public_html\/new\/2021\/registration\/<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u2022 Format: mp4 \u00a0<\/p>\n There is no standard template for preparing the slides to use in your video.
