Initial Submission Preparation
The conference caters to both practitioners and academics. For this purpose, the format of the submissions is divided into two categories, with different submission requirements. Tutorial and special session submissions adhere to the following directions as well. Please carefully read the Author Instructions listed here to ensure an accurate submission.

- Case studies and practical experiences in the industry: short papers (6 pages maximum) presenting practical ideas and case studies.
Tutorials on the latest trends in System Sciences and Engineering are planned. The interested organizers should contact Tutorial Chairs for the details.
