Rules
The first (student) authors of the shortlisted papers give 5-minute presentations to explain the following three aspects of their CWIT paper:
- Explanation of the result to a broader audience (score 0-3)
- Scientific value of the result (score 0-3)
- Impact of the result (score 0-3)
The scores will be given (anonymously) by the professor judges. The overall summary scores will determine the winners. Award certificates and prizes to follow.
