methodological nature as well as application-oriented
contributions. Leading researchers and practitioners are invited
to submit proposals for Special Sessions. The proponents are
expected to provide sufficient evidence in support of their
special session topic, explaining why it deserves distinct focus
and how it relates to the themes of the conference. Evidence of
the potential to attract a sufficient number of submissions to the
special session should also be provided. Each special session is
expected to attract 4 – 6 accepted papers.</p>
