their talk as soon as possible.

For electronic presentations, a Windows-XP laptop computer will
centralize the presentations and will be used for the projection
during the talk.  The formats supported are Powerpoint and PDF.

We ask all speakers to provide their presentation files at least 24 hours
before their talks, which is required to check for and to fix possible
problems.  The files can be either:

 - sent by an email to the secretary (fpcp2004@knu.ac.kr);
 - linked to a web, the URL of which should be sent to the above email address; or
 - provided by an USB memory key on site.

For PDF files, please remember that the landscape mode is far better
suited for on-screen projection.

For transparency presentations, the slides will be scanned during the
days following the speaker's talk. To facilitate this, we ask the
speakers to give us the transparencies or a full copy of it.  Please
