I am a man from Suihua city of Heilongjiang province.
Wish I can learn some experience of research from you!

good

i will attend this important conference.

according to co-chair Prof. Fan requirement, i will pick up some people from Pudong airport and then go Huangshan.

i think there are many people will attend this conference.

nice to meet you in Huangshan.

Hi Ying Thanks for

PIEZOELECTRICITY, ACOUSTIC WAVES AND DEVICE APPLICATIONS
Proceedings of the 2006 Symposium
Zhejiang University, China 14 - 16 December 2006

edited by Ji Wang (Ningbo University, China) & Weiqiu Chen (Zhejiang University, China)

This volume covers important subjects in the field of piezoelectric devices and applications with the latest research on piezoelectricity, acoustic waves, manufacturing technology, and design techniques. It includes up-to-date research and information on materials, new products, technological trends, and design methods of benefit to academics and researchers in the piezoelectric device industry. Contributors to this volume include prominent experts such as Clemens Ruppel of Epcos, Daining Fang of Tsinghua University, Tong-Yi Zhang of University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong, and CS Lam of TXC Corporation. A number of papers have been dedicated to Professor Harry F Tiersten of Resselear Polytechnic Institute, who passed away in 2006, for his contributions to the fundamental theory of piezoelectricity and methods for acoustic wave device analysis.

Contents:

Piezoelectricity
Acoustic Waves

A very nice resource is J. Paul Robinson's website , including

"Presentation 101 for graduate students" (A seminar on how to present a seminar!)

Downloadable *.ppt and *.pdf files available with lots of detail and examples of dos and don'ts.

Assertion-Evidence Presentation Design

Arun K. Subramaniyan — Sun, 29 Jul 2007 16:26:07 -0400

Recently I have been using the assertion-evidence design principle to create my slides. I have found it very useful especially to better organize my thoughts on the slide. I feel the audience warm up to my slides faster than they used to. Please take a look here .

Biswajit,

Great idea for a post!

One thing that I've noticed is with graphs. Many lines that appear just fine on a computer screen disappear when projected, or colors are hard to distinguish.

I typically use one slide per minute as a guideline for my students and
postdoctoral fellows. What's also important is that each slide not
contain too much information.

I also find it annoying when presenters read the words that are on their slides verbatim. If you want to say something, it probably doesn't need to be written on the slide.
