Short papers (up to 4 pages) reflect work-in-progress, partial achievements of longer-term projects, surveys, implementation-oriented or architecture-oriented results, etc.

Posters (up to two pages) are intended for ongoing research projects, concrete experiments, or industrial applications/projects presentations, summarizing a series of results, etc. The poster may be presented during sessions reserved for posters and demos. A two-page paper summarizes a presentation intended to be a poster.

Demos (up to two pages) represent special contributions where a tool, an implementation of an application, or a freshly implemented system is presented in its alfa/beta version, etc. It might also be intended for those new applications to gather the attendee opinion.
