All papers and research reports should be formatted using Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) style. Paper submissions will be electronic only. Only pdf files will be accepted.

Dual Submission Policy

Ongoing Research Reports

There will be two sessions to present reports on the current research projects. One session will be for academic institutions and the other for the industrial establishments. The research reports should be submitted in the same way as the technical papers. A report should maximum be of 4 pages.
