Online Conference
Currently, COVID-19 is still having an enormous impact worldwide. We were expecting the epidemic to come to an end before January, but present situation remains unclear. In consideration of the health and safety of participants, CONF-CDS 2021 will be held online. All participants are welcomed to join the online conference at our YouTube channel, which can become an open platform for professors, researchers, scholars and students to share and discuss their research and findings. Distance won't be a barrier of knowledge. We can go through this special time together.
Overall Format
All invited authors at the virtual conference will be giving their presentations using pre-recorded videos. The recommended length of the videos is around 15 minutes. Videos shorter than 12 minutes or longer than 18 minutes will not be accepted. An official YouTube channel of the online conference will be created. All accepted videos will be uploaded to said channel. Discussion on the content of the papers will be conducted in the comment section of the videos. You can refer to the CONF-CDS 2020 YouTube Channel for more information about the format of the conference.
Information for Authors
Treated in the same way as an onsite conference, speakers in the online conference will also receive a printed certificate of oral presentation. The presentation videos will be listed on the official YouTube channel permanently.
