I hope this may give you the time to contribute your works. We have both full and short formats and both will be in the IEEE and ACM libraries (full papers are 12 pages and can go up to 13 to accommodate references and bios, short papers are 5 pages, and can
go up to 6 to accommodate references and bios). </span></div>

to have a better estimate of the volume of papers to expect. An important note on format:<br>
- full-papers are 12 pages, and can go up to 13 to accommodate references and bios<br>
- short papers are 5 papers, and can go up to 6 to accommodate references and bios<br>
Both full papers and short papers will be published by IEEE. Our conference is in cooperation with both IEEE and ACM.</span></p>
