All 1000-word summary papers will be reviewed by the Program Committee and will be judged with respect to their quality, originality, and relevance. Upon acceptance of the paper, a full camera-ready paper should be prepared and submitted electronically via the conference website. It will be published in the conference proceedings, conditional upon the author's advance registration.
