Thematic Sessions

Thematic sessions have the main aim of creating a mini-workshop on a specific topic, where researchers working on the same issues can get to know each other, familiarize, exchange ideas and create cooperation.
Thematic Sessions are being developed by designated chairs.

If you, as an author, have a paper that could be included in one of these sessions, you may submit your paper selecting your favourite session. If the paper is not selected for the session, it may be included in another part of the technical program.

To submit papers to the technical session, follow the submission instructions for regular sessions, but remind to specify the thematic session to which the paper is directed.

If you are interested in organizing a thematic session, carefully follow the Guidelines available HERE.
