General idea

Following the ISIPTA tradition, every paper and poster-abstract will be presented twice. First in a plenary session, and then in a discussion session. Plenary presentations are brief and are not followed by questions by the audience.
Questions and more detailed interactions are reserved for the discussion sessions, where authors will be available to discuss their paper or abstract with the help of electronic posters and any other supplementary material they might wish to use. Author instructions for the plenary and poster presentations are available in this link: Instructions.

Plenary presentations will be virtual, and are hosted by ResearchersOne. The discussion sessions will take place in the virtual space Gather.
