General Guidelines
The language of the conference is English.
Each registered participant is entitled to present up to two works, which may be full papers and/or extended abstracts. Participants may still be listed as co-authors on additional works, provided those works are presented by other registered participants.
The scientific committee will determine the presentation format for each work based on the contribution and complexity level.
More details about the presentation guidelines will be shared in due course.
