Prospective speakers are invited to submit an extended abstract (one page + references) that will be peer-reviewed by the ACM MHV technical program committee (TPC) for relevance, timeliness and technical correctness.
​
The authors of the accepted extended abstracts will be invited to optionally submit a full-length paper (up to six pages + references) for possible inclusion into the conference proceedings. These papers must be original work (i.e., not published previously in a journal or conference) and will also be peer-reviewed by the ACM MHV TPC.
