The Organizers of the Special Sessions will prepare the final composition of their sessions, based on the outcome of the review process. During the conference, Session Organizers have to serve as chairs for the sessions of their Special Session. In order to allow proper composition of the Special Session, a minimum of 4 accepted papers is needed (in case of a lower number of accepted papers, these papers will be moved to the adequate regular tracks).

As for regular papers, each accepted paper must be presented at the conference by one of the authors. The final manuscript must be accompanied by a registration form and a registration fee payment proof.
