Thinking on those researchers directly related with the conference topics but unable to attend it personally (usually due to insufficient funding to cost all the conference expenses: travel, accommodation, registration, etc.), a Virtual Participation mode has been established, with the same validity than "physical" one (certificates, publications, etc.).


For this participation mode, authors are requested to send "virtual papers", which will be exhibited at the virtual participation online platform. This platform is available at:  http://www.formatex.org/micte2009/virtual/index.htm

 

Authors can prepare these papers using Power Point, Flash or similar software, or video recordings. There are not restrictions in the number of slides for virtual presentations and videos can be as long as authors like. All usual video formats will be accepted. 
 

 


Once virtual papers are uploaded at the virtual participation online platform, the rest of conference participants will be able to see and comment presentations in 5 different ways: using voice (with a mic or phone), text, audio file, or video (via a webcam). Virtual participants will be requested to reply or discuss the commentaries/ questions of their works.  There is an available tutorial to know how this platform works at:  http://www.formatex.org/micte2009/virtual/virtual.html
 

Deadline for virtual paper submission is 30 March 2009
