    Full papers should have an extension between 4 and 8 pages according to the provided template.

    If a full paper is submitted, the paper will be peer-reviewed and after acceptance a revised version will be included in the proceedings of the workshop. In this case, the following information will be added in the final version of the paper: "The full paper was sent to be considered for publication and it was accepted after a peer review process"

    The authors of accepted full paper contributions will be invited to present the research at the conference either in an oral session or in a poster session.


    How to submit

    The submission system is now open. To submit your paper, please go to

    https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fma2017

    There you can select your type of submission. The paper deadline (abstract or full paper) is March 20, 2017 March 13, 2017 .



    Accepted papers must be presented at the FMA 2017 workshop by one of the authors and, at least, one of the authors must register before the deadline given for author registration. Failure to register before the deadline will result in automatic withdrawal of your paper from the FMA 2017 proceedings and program. While there is no limit to the number of contributions that a single author can submit and possibly present, a single registration may only cover up to two (2) contributions (given that the one who registers is an author of both contributions).
