All submissions must be in English. All accepted poster and demo papers will be published in the Symposium Proceedings and will be included in the ACM Digital Library (EI-indexed).

Therefore, submissions should not contain information (including citations and optional videos) that unnecessarily identifies the authors or their institutions or places of work. All poster and demo papers must be submitted electronically as PDF files. Authors are encouraged to submit videos to aid the program committee in the review of their submissions.</span></div><br class=""><div class="" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span class="" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We particularly encourage industrial researchers, startups, and researchers early in their career to submit.
