Symposium Literature

A bound volume with all the abstracts selected for presentation at the Symposium will be made available to all participants at the Symposium. A CD-Rom gathering the extended papers will be sent to the participants after the Symposium.
A selection of the best papers will be made by the Scientific Committee for publication in a special issue of COMPEL Journal (issue 27/1). Papers not presented by one of the authors at the Symposium will not be considered for selection.
