Paper submission
Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers
including results, figures and references. Paper will be
accepted only by electronic submission through the
conference web site. Prospective authors are expected to
present their paper at the conference.
Proposal for special session
The conference will include a number of special sessions.
Proposal for special sessions must include a title,
rationale, session outline, contact information for the
session chairs, a list of authors who have agreed to
present paper in the session, and abstract of each
paper. If any of these requirements is missing in a
proposal, it will not be accepted. Proposals for special
sessions should be submitted to the conference
secretariat before deadline.
