This is a LaTeX class for creating scientific presentations in the corporate design of the Analytic Computing group. Its style is adapted from the WeSTpresentation template, and the university presentation template. It is implemented as a theme for LaTeX poster class beamer, so you should probably have a look at its manual.

Packages

sudo apt install texlive-latex-recommended texlive-bibtex-extra biber

Or simply install vanilla TeXLive (recommended).

Usage

Have a look at the slides.tex or slides_wide.tex file for how to use this class.

The code can be build using pdflatex or lualatex, for instance

pdflatex -shell-escape -file-line-error -halt-on-error slides.tex
biber slides
pdflatex -shell-escape -file-line-error -halt-on-error slides.tex
pdflatex -shell-escape -file-line-error -halt-on-error slides.tex

or

lualatex -shell-escape -file-line-error -halt-on-error slides_wide.tex
biber slides
lualatex -shell-escape -file-line-error -halt-on-error slides_wide.tex
lualatex -shell-escape -file-line-error -halt-on-error slides_wide.tex

Alternatively one can use stu to compile it.
