SUBMISSIONS AND PROPOSALS:

The Scientific Program will consist of organized sessions consisting of regular papers (25 minutes) and keynote papers (50 minutes).

Those interested in organizing a Session should send an informal proposal (even before inviting speakers in order to prevent duplications) to the scientific committee, in care of Thiab Taha (trtaha@gmail.com) as soon as possible.

For Session Organizers: Please provide a short overall view of the proposed session, together with the title, speakers' names, and at least tentative titles of their papers by November 15, 2024. Proposals for sessions submitted after this date will be considered subject to the constraints of available time in the program.

Each session is in principle 2.5 hours long. It is organized, as six 25 minutes papers. Additional papers in a session may, if there is space, be accommodated as "follow-up" elsewhere in the program, or as a "PART II" of the Session.

Organized sessions will be approved by the Chairs of the conference. Papers accepted in these sessions will be reviewed by the Session organizer and/or external reviews.

Please note: For your Abstract to be included in the conference “BOOK OF ABSTRACTS”, you must copy and paste your one-page Abstract on EasyChair in the ABSTRACT section and as an attachment in latex format by using the sample abstract file:
