We are accepting two types of submissions. Full papers: it must consist of original and relevant work where the research is completed or almost finished (6 pages maximum). Short paper: typically discuss new work and work in progress that is not yet mature enough for a long paper (4 pages maximum). All submissions go through a double-blind review process. The Workshop full papers will be published on the conference main proceedings on paper and on CD (ISI, IEEE XPlore and EBSCO).
