Guidelines for submissions
- All abstracts must be submitted in English.
- Authors are responsible for the literary standard of submitted abstracts.
- It is the author responsibility to submit a correct abstract; any errors in spelling, grammar, or scientific fact will be published as typed by the author. Submitted abstracts can be re-opened for revision at any time before the deadline.
- The character encoding should be in UTF-8.
- The abstracts can be entered into the system via copy & paste.
- The abstracts may include LaTeX commands. However, they should not contain “\begin{document}” or “\end{document}”, nor should any packages be loaded or new commands be defined.
- The submission tool is based on MathJax. It does not support enumerate environments. Enumerate environments will not be displayed in your web-browser, but of course will be set properly later in the abstract volume.

General Info
Venue
Edwin-Scharff-Haus, Silcherstrasse 40, 89231 Neu-Ulm
The Edwin-Scharff-Haus is centrally located (only a few minutes walk to the center of Neu-Ulm and Ulm) and at the same time in the middle of nature: the Danube stretches directly in front of the venue with inviting river banks and opportunities to stroll, network and enjoy.
If you choose to stay in a central hotel, you will be able to reach the venue by foot via a 10-min walk along some of the most charming parts of the city.
Walks to the venue will take you through the beautiful city center of Ulm or along the Danube river, as well as through the city of Neu-Ulm. Additionally, Ulm and Neu-Ulm have a reliable ar public transport network (tram bahn & bus) with easy access to any part of both cities. Also, nearby cities may easily be reached by train or bus. Most buses have a 10-minute frequency and a one-day ticket is 5,50 €; a single ticket is 2,90 €. You can buy tickets either from the bus driver or preferably from the ticket machine at the bus or tram bahn stop. The central hub for tram bahn, bus and train is the main train station of Ulm.
