Submission information

The SMAI-MODE days are soliciting the following types of contributions:

• Contributed talks (approximately 25 minutes in duration, in two parallel sessions).
• Contributed posters (in dedicated poster session slots).

Conference participants are invited to submit an extended abstract describing their contribution. Information on the submission deadline and other important dates can be found here. ​ As it has been the case in the previous editions of the SMAI-MODE meeting, the Jean-Claude Dodu prize (co-sponsored by EDF, Orange and Thales) within the context of PGMO will be awarded to the best contribution of a young researcher.

Contributed abstracts will be reviewed by the Program Committee.

Submission procedure

Participants are invited to submit a short abstract (maximum 200 words) that will appear in the conference booklet and an extended PDF abstract (typically from 1 page to no more than 3 pages) which will be made available online and will be used by the scientific committee for selecting submissions. To prepare the extended abstract, authors are required to use the specific SMAI-MODE 2018 template available here.
