Submissions violating the above rules will not be considered for publication.

Preferably, papers should be written in English, although the authors may also consider Portuguese or Spanish.
There will be two calls, for regular papers (up to 8 pages in final format) and for Work-in-Progress papers (up to 4 pages in final format). The paper template can be downloaded from the SBC site ("Modelo para publicação de artigos") in https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/templates. To submit the papers, authors must go through the JEMS conference management system in https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/.
