Promote your Session and Paper:
Presenters of research papers are being encouraged to promote their paper by submitting a video to be posted on the DAC website. Let the attendees know why your paper just shouldn't be missed. For more details please click on the Logo.
Research Sessions will begin with concise 15 minute presentation (12 minute presentation 3 minute Q&A and transition), and will end with 30 minute poster presentation. Presenters will be required to stand next to your poster during the poster session, and to interact with attendees. This is an opportunity for you to provide details to attendees (as well as, for example, any hard copy handouts you wish to bring to the poster session), to have lively, one-on-one discussions, and to make contacts.
The following are links to instruction guidelines in an effort to assist presenters in their preparation for conference:

Thus, it is recommended that you check to be sure your visa will allow entry to the United States. More information regarding travel visas can be found here.
