Abstacts and later Papers shall be submittet on-line to the Confernce secretariat,

SUBMIT ABSTRACT HERE
After receiving notification of acceptance of abstracts from the conference organisers, authors are required to prepare a full-length paper of total length (including all text, tables, figures and references) of not more than ten (10) pages and not bigger than 10 Mb.
      Paper must comply in structure and layout with given instructions, it is imperative that everyone complies exactly with the instructions in order for the proceedings to be of the highest quality and to be published on time.

Guidlines and template for papers
September 9th 2015
Submission of Papers
We have now got 162 abstracts and hope that the authors are working on their final paper. Paper submissions must be a electronic copy of a Microsoft Word Document. The maximum file size of the uploaded document is 10 MB or 10 pages. Papers shall be submitted by sending them via email to the following address:
[email protected]

You are welcome to the Pre-Conference Workshop
 - Registration will be needed - more info will come later.
From the work of the Nordic "Mirrorgroup" on EC7, you will be able to see much more and learn at the Pre-Confernce Workshop at NGM 2016.
