A special conference issue in an international scientific journal is planned to be published after the conference, and authors may submit a full paper, based on their presentation, after the conference (for back issues see here).

Abstracts must be submitted electronically using e-mail. An electronic abstract template including all format definitions is available here. This template shall be downloaded and used for the preparation of abstracts. Authors are advised to follow the formats given in this template. Other formats or paper/fax copies will not be accepted.
