An extensive listing connotes and reflects the requirement and also skill necessary to find intersection zones of the disciplines among the different domains, fields, and specialities; which at the same time potentially boosts and merges the formerly different scientific views.

All submitted papers will be reviewed by a double-blind (at least three reviewers), non-blind, and participative peer review. These three kinds of review will support the selection process of those that will be accepted for their presentation at the international conference. Authors of accepted papers who registered in the conference can have access to the evaluations and possible feedback provided by the reviewers who recommended the acceptance of their papers, so they can accordingly improve the final version of their papers.

Important Dates:

Papers Submissions: Open
Authors Notification: one/two week/s, after the submission
Camera-ready, full papers: September, 10

Invited Session Papers, Technical Demo and Poster Session
Submission of Papers: Set by Session Chair
Notification of Acceptance: Set by Sessions Chair
Upload of Final Publication Files: September, 10
