Call for Workshop Proposals

The aim of the conference workshops is to emphasize emerging topics of particular interest to the conference attendees not specifically covered in the main symposia. Each workshop may include a mix of regular papers, invited presentations, and panels that encourage the participation of attendees in active discussions. Proposal submissions should be sent to the Workshop Chair Liping Qian via email (Submission mailbox: lpqian@zjut.edu.cn). Priority will be given to proposals that not only address an exciting topic but also promise a creative format likely to generate lively interactions and foster new ideas. All accepted workshops should implement peer-reviews of accepted papers.
