Work-in-progress submission

We encourage researchers and practitioners to submit works-in-progress (WIP) as it provides a unique opportunity for sharing valuable ideas, eliciting useful early-stage feedback on current work and preliminary results, and fostering discussions and collaborations among colleagues. All accepted WIP submissions will be presented at the conference. WIPs are to be submitted as Extended abstracts. These should not exceed three pages. Deadline for submission is May 13.
