Call for Abstracts

We welcome ~250-word abstracts describing methodologies, studies or systems relevant to the topics of the workshop. Submissions are not anonymous. Non published work, vision statements, and work in progress are welcome.

We are looking for contributions with interesting insights, which could lead to a productive discussion during the symposium. The main criteria of evaluation of the Programme Committee are scientific relevance, innovation level and research potential.

Abstract should be submitted at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bhcc2019.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
