ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
Interested participants are kindly requested to indicate their intention to participate in the Final Conference by sending an e-mail to cristian.marchioli@uniud.it before April 17, 2015 together with a tentative title of their proposed talk.

Accepted participants are requested to submit a 3-page abstract of their contribution, using the template available at the following link:

Deadline for abstract submission is May 15, 2015. Submitted abstracts will be published as Conference proceedings.

REGISTRATION
Registration for Action participants will be made through the e-COST system. Participants will be invited by Cristian Marchioli and the Grant Holder (CISM) through automatic e-mails generated by the system itself. Then recipients will have to accept/decline the invitation: if they accept, then they will need to register in the e-COST system in case.
