Proposal content:
An individual can be organizer of up to TWO Special Sessions. If you are interested to organize a special session, please send proposal by using the template and email to the Special Session Chairs, at isseta_ee@nitm.ac.in.

Organization of special sessions:
Once approved, it is the duty of the special session organizers to publicize it among researchers and practitioners in the field and attract a sufficient number of papers. Papers submitted to special sessions will undergo the same review process as regular papers. During the review process, special session organizers may be requested to assign the reviewers
Successful Special Session:
A minimum of 8 accepted papers with authors from at least 3 independent institutions is required for each session. If a session has very few papers, accepted papers will be allocated to regular sessions wherever possible. The ISSETA 2024 special session executive chairs may take necessary measures including cancellation of the respective special session.
Free symposium Registration:
The organizers of a successful Special Session will get one free registration, free accommodation (Guest House), and local travel facility.
Session Chairs:
When a Special Session is accepted by the ISSETA 2024, special session organizers will serve as Session chairs in the symposium. In some extenuated circumstance, Technical Program chairs and ISSETA 2024 General Chairs might take up the fully control of appointing the Session Chairs in case special session organizers are unable to participate in the ISSETA 2024.
