Notes to Authors

Uploading of Papers

You are expected to write a paper (3-7 pages) about your presentation. In order to maintain platform independence papers are only accepted in PDF. Papers may be uploaded until the start of the conference. In order to upload your paper to the NOBUGS 2008 WWW-site follow these easy steps:

  1. Login
  2. Click on Submit Paper. This should display your abstract(s).
  3. Click on Browse. Enter the path to the file containing your paper.
  4. Click Submit
It is possible to upload your talk to ANSTO ahead of time on the same login. Do not worry, the WWW-page allows to upload both or either the paper or the talk.

Notes to Speakers

The program for NOBUGS 2008 will be tight. We have to ask all speakers to adhere to the time limits as per the programme. In order not to waste time with swapping notebooks etc. the following provisions have been made:

  • It is very much preferred that speakers upload their presentations to ANSTO ahead of time in either MS Powerpoint or PDF format. For this, use the same page as for uploading papers. The uploaded files will be provided on the notebooks. Uploads till Friday, October 31 noon local time will be honoured.
  • If this does not work for you, please bring your presentation on a USB stick to connect to the ANSTO notebook.
  • If you insist on using your own notebook: Please make sure that you connect your notebook ahead of time and test the display, preferably during breaks.
If you need more assistance, please contact the local organising commitee well in advance.
