Technical sessions are collections of 5 oral contributions having a homogeneous subject. Workshops are a collection of technical sessions having strictly related subject.  Workshops  have a length not shorter than two technical sessions and no longer than 11 technical sessions.

The workshop  and technical session Chairs (Session Chairs) are responsible for all the organizational aspects including soliciting, reviewing and selection of Session papers.  Session chairs are also fully responsible for ensuring that only high quality papers are selected and for deciding their type (short, full). They are also requested to notify the Conference Chairs the name of the reviewers (for insertion in the electronic review system) and for choosing the actual reviewers (at least three) of each paper.

Session Chairs (or their Deputies) set also the order of presentation of oral contributions and chair related sessions.

The information provided to the Conference Chairs  shall remain strictly confidential.

Due to their active role, Session chairs will benefit of a reduced conference registration fee (the reduction depending on the number and quality of attracted papers).
