Topics Sessions
You can also submit a proposal to organize
a special topics session, workshop, and/or tutorial.
The of organizing a special topic session is that it brings together researchers
and audience together to discuss a specific research question of interest
and/or share your research efforts with others who have worked in the same
area. These sessions could result in joint research efforts and/or
co-authorship of journal articles. Special topics session are highly
beneficial if they are well organized.
Proposals to organize a special topic session should include the following
information: name and address, e-mail of proposer, title of session, a
100-word description of the topic of the session, and a short description
on how the session will be advertised. Usually, session proposers
solicit papers from colleagues and researchers whose work is known to the
session proposer.

Each special topic session will have at least 3 paper. The session
chairs will be responsible for all aspects of their sessions; including,
soliciting papers, reviewing, selecting, etc. The review process
for invited sessions will strictly follow the review process for regular
submission. Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance,
clarity, and contribution. Each paper will be exposed to a full blind
peer review by two reviewers in the topical area. Final camera-ready
papers will be reviewed by one reviewer. Papers must not
have been previously published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere.
