To this end, the event consists of a combination of workshops and lectures (the "school"), made ??by experienced researchers, and presentations of papers and extended abstracts (the "workshop").

Researchers, graduate students, doctoral and graduate are invited to submit papers in Portuguese or English, in PDF format, produced using the style of the SBC, available at this link. Papers that do not follow this format can be disregarded. The proceedings will be published electronically, with ISBN.
