Paper Categories
- Full Research Papers (up to 6 pages, including all references): In-depth research work with significant findings and detailed analysis.
- Short Papers (up to 3 pages, including all references): Preliminary research results or innovative ideas.
- Industrial Papers (up to 3 pages, including all references): These papers should focus on real-world implementations, challenges, and case studies from the industry. They should be applicable and interesting to the industrial community, showcasing real-world use cases, such as the output of a European-funded project. Nevertheless, the paper must be concise, technically sound, easy to understand and follow, and structured as a scientific paper.
Papers will be accepted if they are technically sound and relevant to the addressed topics of the workshop. Additionally, the quality of presentation, styling, and the soundness of the English language will be carefully evaluated. It is essential that submissions not only meet the technical criteria but also adhere to high standards in their visual and linguistic presentation. The evaluation process will consider the overall clarity, coherence, and polish of the papers to ensure they effectively communicate their contributions.
