Conference and Organizers
Environmentally Symbiotic Society on
Wood Resources
Invitation from the Conference Chairman
On the behalf of Organizing Committee, International Association
of Wood Products Societies, and The Japan Wood Research Society,
I would like to express my warm welcome to the International
Symposium on Wood Science and Technologies in Yokohama from
November 27 to 30, 2005 as 50th Anniversary of The Japan Wood
Research Society. This symposium is co-organized by International
Association of Wood Products Societies (IAWPS) and named as
IAWPS2005.
IAWPS is the international organization founded in 1995 for
the contribution of relevant societies to the better understanding
and to the better utilization of wood resources in harmony with
global and local environment. I believe it is extremely important
for us to exchange the information and to share the difficulties.
IAWPS2005 will cover whole areas of wood science and technologies,
and papers will be presented at nine sessions. I hope every
session will be very exciting with full of participants from
all over the world.
Yokohama is a port-city with international atmosphere, and you
can easily visit many historical places including Kamakura which
is an ancient capital of Japan. Of course, the symposium will
arrange daily tours and post-symposium tours for accompanying
persons and symposium participants.
I am sure that you will be able to find a very enjoyable time
in Yokohama.
| I hope to see
you in Yokohama, Japan
Sincerely,
Gyosuke Meshitsuka

Instruction
for Contributors
Oral Presentation
A LCD projector and a computer operated on Windows XP will be
provided in all session rooms. PowerPoint 2002 will be the standard
software for oral presentation. Use of this software is highly
recommended to prepare materials. If you use other versions
of PowerPoint, please check its compatibility in a trial room.
The presentation file should be recorded on a USB type flash
memory or a CD-ROM and transferred to the computer during the
break before your presentation. Other medias such as floppy
disk, MO, or ZIP can be used only in the trial room. If you
bring your presentation materials by these medias, you can copy
them on USB memory or CD in the trial room. Please ask the person
in charge of the trial room for assistance.
If you want, you can also use your own computer for presentation.
This may be necessary for Macintosh users and for other software.
Total time for each oral presentation is 30 min which includes
time for questions and discussion. Please finish your talk within
23 min to leave enough time for discussion. The timekeeper will
ring a first bell at 20 minutes and a second bell at 23 minutes.
Poster Presentation
The maximum size of the board for the poster should be 90 (W)
x 180 (H). Pins and/or tape for mounting the poster on a board
will be supplied by the organizing committee. Poster presentations
will be held during of two core times; Contributors with the
odd-number posters are requested to present at 15:30-17:00 on
