CALL FOR PHD FORUM

The PhD Forum provides a unique opportunity for PhD students to present 
their research work and to receive constructive feedback from their 
peers as well as experts in the field (including academics and 
practitioners) at the conference. The forum will also be an excellent 
occasion for stimulating fruitful interactions and developing 
person-to-person networks to the benefit of the PhD students in their 
future careers. The goal of this forum is to create opportunities for 
students to meet with peers outside of their home institution, to get 
technical feedback as well as career advice from established researchers 
in their field, to find out about internship and job opportunities, and 
to articulate their own work in a public, friendly forum. The presenters 
at the forum are expected to be PhD students in any phase of their 
doctoral studies. Topics of interest are the same as those listed in the 
main conference call for papers. We will try to offer remote video 
presentation options for authors who are unable to attend due to visa 
issues. A Best Student Paper Award will be assigned by an independent 
review committee according to the quality of research work and the 
quality of presentation.


CALL FOR POSTERS

The poster session provides an excellent opportunity to present 
early-stage or ongoing research, and to receive interesting and valuable 
feedback from conference attendees. We also strongly encourage student 
and industry submissions. Topics of interest are the same as those 
listed in the main conference call for papers. A Best Poster Award will 
be assigned by an independent review committee according to the quality 
of research work and the quality of poster presentation.
