Abstract Submission

Authors are invited to submit abstracts of their research. All abstracts must respect the Abstract’s Guidelines. Only submissions through the Workshop official website (link: https://wile2022.sciencesconf.org/). will be accepted. Registered abstracts will be peer-reviewed and selected based on their originality, technical strength, and topical relevance. Authors of selected Abstracts will be contacted after the workshop to submit the full paper versions. Accepted articles will be published in specific international journals. The list of journals (or special issues) will appear soon in the workshop website as the process is still ongoing.
