Call for Special Sessions

IC2DE 2026 now welcomes proposals for special sessions. We invite submissions on novel or emerging research areas, as well as innovative applications of existing methodologies, to complement and broaden the main conference program. Proposals should focus on timely and compelling topics of interest to the community.

Each special session is expected to feature a minimum of five accepted papers. Organizers may actively invite contributions within their thematic scope. A session can be led by up to two designated organizers, with roles such as chair and co-chair.

All papers submitted to special sessions will undergo the same rigorous peer review as regular submissions and are required to satisfy identical publication criteria. Papers accepted and presented within special sessions will be published in the official conference proceedings.

The papers in each accepted Special Session will undergo a review process, similar to the other regular papers. It is the responsibility of the organizers to ensure that their Special Session papers meet IC4e quality standards. In case a paper in a Special Session does not meet the expected quality, it will be rejected and an effort will be made to draw papers from the regular submission process to fill in the gap. If too many papers for a given Special Session are not accepted in the review process and we are unable to find suitable substitutes from the regular review pool, the Special Session may be canceled. Any further inquiries should be sent to: ic2de_committee@outlook.com.
