NEW CALL FOR PAPERS: deadlines for paper submission
ENGLISH SESSIONS: April 14th
ITALIAN SESSIONS: April 22nd
We would like to thank all authors who submitted their papers by the official deadline of 10 March. The response to the Call for Papers has been remarkable, with submissions of extraordinary scientific quality from 28 different countries. Discover speakers, presentations and workshops already accepted >>
Thanks to the valuable insights from the Symposium Chairs, SUM 2025 will address attention to open questions and pressing issues, interesting for additional paper submissions, workshop proposals and multidisciplinary focus sessions.
In light of this, the Call for Papers has been re-opened until 14 April 2025 to welcome contributions addressing the hot topics, as well as all previously listed subjects.
Furthermore, the scientific program of SUM 2025 will include, in addition to the traditional English-language sessions (oral presentations, posters, workshops), an oral session in Italian on topics and aspects of particular interest to our scientific community. Submission of papers for the Italian session is open until 22 April 2025.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Papers must be prepared using our paper template and submitted in MS WORD format (.docx) using the submission form. Proposals should be submitted in the form of full papers or short papers (at least 3-4 pages). Papers may be submitted for oral or poster presentation.
Workshops proposals are also welcome and must be submitted as instructed at this page: Call for Workshops
The official language of the Symposium is English, therefore all papers must be written and presented in English.
In addition, the Symposium may include a session to be held entirely in Italian, in order to facilitate the participation of local delegates. Italian authors may freely submit abstracts for inclusion in both English and Italian sessions.
EVALUATION
Papers will be selected following evaluation by an international and multidisciplinary panel of experts. Final destination (oral/poster) will be established according to the following criteria: request by the author, topic relevance, characteristics of the paper (highly specific, preliminary results, case study) and number of papers received on the same topic.
Acceptance/rejection of papers will be notified to the presenting author. Authors not receiving the notification should contact the Organising Secretariat at info@sumsymposium.it
Please note that acceptance of your paper does not automatically register you in the conference. The author who will present the paper at the Symposium (presenting author) must register and pay their entrance fee within 10 days after receipt of the acceptance notification. Only one presenting author can be appointed for each paper. Each speaker may deliver up to two presentations during the conference.
PAPER PUBLICATION & PRESENTATION
Following notification of acceptance, ALL presenting authors (including those scheduled for poster presentations) should provide the following:
Authors presenting their work in an oral session or workshop will be requested to send their PowerPoint presentation by email at info@sumsymposium.it no later than 12 May 2025.
