(after notification of acceptance) will be given 2 additional pages of
content (8-15 pages of content) so that reviewers' comments can be taken
into account but the number of pages for references will not change (up
to 3 pages).
-

Authors may choose this category if they wish to report on smaller case
studies or ongoing original research efforts. The expected length of a
short paper submission should be in the range of 4-7 pages of content,
plus up to 2 pages for references. Final versions (after notification of
acceptance) will be given 1 additional page of content (4-8 pages of
content) so that reviewers' comments can be taken into account but the
number of pages for references will not change (up to 2 pages).
-
Position Papers:
These deal with novel unexplored research ideas or viewpoints which
describe trends or fruitful starting points for future research and
elicit discussion. The expected length of a position paper submission
should be 2 pages of content, plus up to 2 pages for references. Final
versions (after notification of acceptance) will be given 1 additional
