Submission

The conference will be held on June 02-03, 2023, at the City University of Hong Kong. The conference is selective, and about ten papers will be selected for the program. Though the two-day meeting will be held in hybrid mode, the conference organizers would prefer to invite those researchers who can visit Hong Kong and join us in person. The conference organizers will cover the economy airfare expenses of overseas speakers and reimburse a 3-nights hotel stay.
