Special Sessions and Tutorials:

Authors are welcome to propose and manage special sessions or give a half-day pre-conference tutorial during the IFTC' 2021. Each special session will contain 4-6 papers in a related field as specified above.


Session organizers will get:

- Certificate of Appreciation
- Free Registration for the Event
- Special Publishing Theme within Conference Proceedings


Publications:

1) All registered abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings (Flash drive edition of published Proceedings with the ISBN).

2) Authors will be invited to submit full-page extended papers to special issue of Sensors & Transducers open access journal (ISSN 2306-8515, e-ISSN 1726-5479), which is published in both formats: print and electronic (pdf), or in MDPI Sensors (e-ISSN: 1424-8220) open access journal.

3) The limited number of full-page papers published in the journal will be selected by the Editorial Board to extend for the open access book chapters for the Book Series on 'Advances in Sensors: Reviews', Vol. 8, which will be published in 2020/2021, or 'Advances in Measurements and Instrumentation: Reviews', Vol. 3. These Book Series are indexed in the Book Citation Index (Wed of Science) by Clarivate Analytics.
