Author's Responsibilities
The authors, not the USENIX staff, are solely responsible for the content and formatting of their paper. It is not possible for USENIX to proofread or correct the papers before we print them. USENIX staff will be happy to advise about any aspect of paper presentation: send email to the Production Director, Jane-Ellen Long, before the paper submission deadline.
Note that some licensed material may not be publishable.
USENIX does not have the resources to research licensed material
and will rely on your determination. If there is any question on this
matter, please contact your program chair immediately.
The Presentation
Unless you have been given alternate instructions, each paper will be scheduled in a 30-minute time period (no more than 25 minutes for your
talk and at least 5 reserved for questions). We will
monitor the time very closely and will not allow talks to run over
their allotted time. Prepare your talks accordingly.
We will provide the following equipment:
- 1 LCD projector
- 1 screen
- 1 wired Lavalier microphone
- cables and extension cords
Please note: laptops are not provided. If you wish to discuss any special A/V needs, please contact Devon Shaw, Conference Manager, via email at devon@usenix.org or via phone at 510-528-8649 ext. 21.
