Barcelona is a dynamic, open, and inviting city, in the Mediterranean coast of Spain, which displays the characteristics of major Mediterranean cities and inherits a millenarian tradition in science, art and commerce. The venue is Barcelona International Convention
Center, which was built for Barcelona’s International Cultural Forum in 2002 and counts with all the facilities to host major conferences.
The Conference Organizing and Program Committees together represent many countries from all five continents, bringing the research, applications and perspectives of their areas to this international forum. We are working to prepare an attractive scientific
