paper submission deadline will not be postponed by any significant
amount of time.

The paper preparation guidelines can be found on the conference
website. They stipulate that authors may submit multimedia files
to illustrate their contribution. These multimedia files will
have to be incorporated in one ZIP archive.

of these Sessions, they can specify that during paper submission.
Irrespective of this specification, all papers will follow the same
electronic review procedure.
