- Originality — there is technical novelty in your talk; the content of your talk either hasn't been published before or presents a well-known topic / problem in a different light.
- Practical applicability — the talk is important from practical point of view, you not only cover the existing problems / solutions, but also share your experience.
- Speaker's expertise and publicity.
