Therefore, we strongly encourage authors to submit abstracts describing their contributions in an application-oriented context. 



Abstracts will be evaluated by our conference program committee and external reviewers. Submissions will be judged on validity, originality, technical strength, practical significance, quality of presentation, and relevance to the featured topic areas. We encourage submissions from a variety of fields where in-depth, application-centric ideas addressing important challenges related to the conference themes are discussed. Authors of accepted oral presentations may submit a full paper to be included in the conference proceedings. Please submit your abstract electronically at www.cewit.org/conference2020. Submission guidelines and other information will be provided on the conference website.
