Forum papers can present research-in-progress and should be original and innovative, and not longer than 2.500 words. All submissions will be evaluated in a similar manner as full papers. Through short presentations possibly enhanced with posters delegates will be able to show their accepted (preliminary) research and receive feedback in an interactive way.
