introduce new or ongoing work and provide opportunities for authors to
interact directly with attendees.
Topics of Interest:

We welcome all topics that align with the ICDCN main conference topics of
interest
Poster Abstract:

Poster abstracts should report on research work where at least some
preliminary results are available, but they need not necessarily describe
completed work. An easel will be provided for all posters. All poster
