The Conference will host both competitive sessions and poster sessions.

Competitive sessions are for well-developed research work. Authors have to submit extended abstracts for oral presentation in the competitive sessions. Once the extended abstracts are accepted for presentation, authors must submit full papers for consideration of publications. 

Poster sessions are for research work that is at an early stage of development. They allow researchers to engage in constructive discussion with other knowledgeable researchers in the field. Authors have to submit abstracts for presentation in the poster sessions. 

Authors are required to submit their abstracts or extended abstracts by 10 September 2021. All submissions will go through a double blind peer review process. Please submit your blinded manuscript with NO author details. Accepted papers will ultimately be allocated to either a competitive session or a poster session after considering suggestions of referees. Confirmation of acceptance would be sent by 11 October 2021.
