Students will receive inspiration from their peers and will have a chance to discuss their research objectives with senior community members in the context of an established international conference. The ST session will take place during the conference. Each participant will present her\/his work, followed by a discussion with senior researchers. Receiving feedback about your work from senior researchers and discussing it with them is an excellent opportunity to receive valuable comments and suggestions on the research activity.<\/p>\n<p>One accepted paper will be awarded the\u00a0\u201cBest Student Paper Award\u201d\u00a0by the Program Committee members.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_accordion][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Submission Guidelines&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1752744475873-e461d84f-724e&#8221;][vc_column_text]Submit a paper of at least 2 pages and at most 4 pages in\u00a0<a style=\"color: #ffbb00;\" href=\"https:\/\/preview.springer.com\/gp\/computer-science\/lncs\/conference-proceedings-guidelines\">Springer LNCS format<\/a>\u00a0and describe the state of the whole research project, rather than a specific completed result. <b>You must be the only author of the paper<\/b>.

Publishing a paper in ST can be really helpful for improving students\u2019 publication record.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All accepted papers will be presented either as oral presentations or during poster sessions, which will give students an opportunity to interact with and to present their work to a large and diverse audience, including top researchers in the field and assigned mentors.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Pre-Submission&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1752744704086-e632e986-5838&#8243;][vc_column_text]The ST offers students the opportunity to receive feedback prior to submitting their work for review. The goal of the pre-submission program is to improve the quality of writing and presentation of the student\u2019s work, not to critique the work itself. Participation is optional but encouraged. The pre-submission mentorship is not anonymous.<\/p>\n<p>Students wishing to participate in the pre-submission mentorship must submit their paper draft by July 27, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The participants will receive a feedback within four weeks from the program committee. The feedback will be in the form of guidelines and suggestions to improve the overall writing, which should ideally be incorporated before the actual submission deadline.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Grants&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1752744765739-68fe7182-3e7e&#8221;][vc_column_text]We expect to have a few grants to waive fully or partially conference registration.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Important Dates&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1752744799504-94683781-02bc&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pre-submission deadline: July 27, 2025<\/li>\n<li>Pre-submission feedback: August 25, 2025<\/li>\n<li>Paper submission deadline: August 30, 2025<\/li>\n<li>Acceptance notifications: September 6, 2025<\/li>\n<li>Camera-ready deadline: September 16, 2025<\/li>\n<li>Authors registration deadline: 16 September, 2025<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All deadlines are 11:59PM UTC-12:00 (\u201canywhere on Earth\u201d)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_accordion][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Click here to download the call for student papers of MEDES 2025: [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Co-Located with MEDES 2025, the Student Track (ST) is a forum where students at multiple stages of their education (including high school, undergraduate, MSc\/MA, junior and senior PhD&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5320","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5320","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5320"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5320\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5328,"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5320\/revisions\/5328"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/conferences.sigappfr.org\/medes2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5320"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
