Accurate descriptions. There's a lot of crossover between the two, so I
didn't want to keep track of whether something would be a demo or
presentation. Also, for brain storming, any topic could be one or the other
or both.

Yes, for the official schedule we need to seperate them. The presentations
will be in the auditorium, one at a time with a projector and a screen.

Multiple demos can be run at the same time. It might be a bit cramped, but
we can definitely get multiple demos in the room.
