Call for Special Sessions

E2A 2027 invites proposals for Special Sessions focusing on emerging, interdisciplinary, and high-impact research topics.

The Organizing Committee of E2A 2027 invites proposals for Special Sessions (SS) to be held as part of the conference program. These sessions aim to complement the main technical tracks by focusing on emerging, interdisciplinary, and high-impact research topics. Special Sessions provide a platform for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government organizations to present state-of-the-art developments, novel applications, and future directions in specialized domains.

Benefit of Special Sessions

Special sessions provide the opportunity to focus in detail on particular emerging topics, which are not reflected in the list of conference tracks or represent specific working fields where researchers would like to meet and discuss advances.

Special Session Organization

  • Promoting the special session to potential authors
  • Ensuring submitted papers are relevant to the topic
  • Coordinating with the conference technical program committee
  • Sending papers for review and receiving comments
  • Chairing the special session during the conference
