and between columns:0.25, main text: 10pt). 

All papers submitted to this conference will be peer-reviewed 
and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and 
relevance to the conference topics. The conference 
proceedings will be published by IEEE CS Press and 
also be included in the IEEE digital library. 
All accepted papers will be indexed by EI. 

Awards
