The Symposium will have both stand-up and poster presentations of contributed papers. In addition, prominent scientists will deliver several keynote lectures.

All keynote lectures and contributions will be available in the form of CD-ROM to the participants at the registration. Begell House will publish the presented submissions in a proceedings volume. A set of selected keynotes and contributed manuscripts will later be invited to send their full manuscripts for publication in a special issue of the International Journal of Thermal Sciences .

The poster sessions will allow the researchers to discuss their most recent work in a relaxed atmosphere. The authors will be asked to submit their preference of a stand-up or a poster presentation while they submit their manuscripts. The conference chair will make the final decision.

All authors are expected to send their manuscripts in camera-ready format (in pdf or as a MS-Word document) electronically. The guidelines for preparing camera-ready manuscripts can be found here.
