Q: Where can I find instructions for submitting full papers? 哪里可以查询有关论文缴交的事宜?

A: Due to the vast number of high-quality submissions we received for this year’s conference, panel discussions will be chaired without formal commentary so as to accommodate more papers. Presenters are no longer required to submit their full papers to the ISSCO conference, but are welcome to share their papers with members of their panels at their own discretion. More information about panel schedules will be available on the conference website by late June. Please contact Josh Chan at <issco.2016@ubc.ca> if you have questions. 由于本会收到总多高质素的论文,为节省时间,专题研讨部分将以 “问答交流” 取代 “主持人评论” 环节。所有论文发表者不需要向大会缴交论文全文。发表者欢迎自行联络阁下的专题研讨小组成员、交流信息。有关专题研讨小组之细节将于6月底开始陆续于网上公布。如阁下有更多疑问,请电邮至陈先生 <issco.2016@ubc.ca> 。
