Information About Participation in the QCF Poster Displays and the QCF Poster Session
What is a QCF Poster Display and QCF Poster Session?
This is a presentation by an individual or by a team of QCF results from a paper, project or report in a display throughout QCF Day.
How Can You Become a Presenter of a QCF Poster Display on QCF Day?
Read on.
Step 1.
This starts with one of the following
- a research paper, or
- a project report, or
- an independent study report, in the area of Quantitative and Computational Finance, from an individual or a team. This paper or report could have been an outcome from a QCF curriculum type class, from a Company project (with Company approval for presentation), or from independent study.
Step 2.
Each Poster Display consists of at least these two parts:
(1) copies of the paper or report (or at least relevant summaries), and
(2) display of results from the paper or report (consisting of approximately 12 - 15 sheets) presented on a poster board display structure (supplied by QCF)
The display is a triptych of 3 attached panels with middle panel 36" high and 24" wide and two side panels each 36" high and 12" wide. This should also include a Title for the presentation.
Optional: Other items, such as 'the presenter at a laptop', can be part of this Poster Display, at the presenter's discretion.
All poster presenter groups should discuss their ideas and materials with Dr. Kertz or Dr. Deng. At least one individual from each presentation group should complete a registration for QCF DAY. Poster presentations may be made by individuals and teams attending QCF DAY who have noteworthy QCF-related results to be presented to the QCF DAY attendees.
Step 3.
Poster presenters should pick up the poster board display materials from the Math department. Alternatively, they can purchase their own structure as described above from a retailer such as Office Depot.
If they are in the Atlanta region, the participating individuals and teams should deliver the completed displays to Dr. Kertz before March 28, 2007. If they are outside the Atlanta region, the participating individuals and teams should bring their completed structures with them when they come to Atlanta for QCF DAY.
Step 4.
The QCF Poster Displays will be set up in the Global Learning and Conference Center on QCF Day. Presenters must be present during the QCF Poster Session.
