All authors are invited to select the appropriate track during the submission process:

-          authors of contributed papers must select the "Contributed papers - oral" or the “Contributed papers - poster” track.

Authors of contributed papers can choose to present their work in the form of poster or oral presentation. A poster session is scheduled during the cocktail party on Monday 22 June and posters will receive wide visibility during all social activities. The best posters as judged by a qualified jury will be awarded during the SIS general assembly.

Only if the number of accepted submissions for oral presentations exceeds those that can be allocated in the conference program, some of the contributed papers proposed for oral presentations could be turned into posters. In this case the order of arrival will be taken into account.

Short papers must include:

-          an introduction to the substantive problem and to the data analysed;

-          a statement of the main results and conclusions;

-          the most important key references.

All accepted short papers will be published in the "Book of short papers - SIS 2020" (with ISBN) edited by members of the Local Organizing and Programme Committees.
