Announcement!

Due to the recent development of COVID-19, the Singapore government has implemented stricter measures for on-site meetings. As such, we need to strike a balance between the required safety measures and conference attendee experience. To provide the conference participants face-to-face interactions as much as possible, we have decided to change our conference plan to the following:

Session 1:

19 – 21 May (09:00 AM to 11:30 AM)

Keynote Speakers sessions (on-line)

Session 2:

30 June – 2 July 2021

Hybrid conference (both online and onsite) for keynote speaker (onsite) and all the paper presentations

All speakers will receive an e-mail with further information such as the date and time of their presentations and instructions on presenting their work.
