 *****************************************************************
We anticipate having between 1,000 and 2,000 participants
in the
event (CSCE Congress) that this conference is part of.
The congress
includes 20 major tracks ( https://www.americancse.org/events/csce2019
)
composed of: 122 technical, research, and panel sessions
as well as a
number of keynote lectures and tutorials; all will be
held
simultaneously, same location and dates: July 29 - August
1, 2019.
Last year, the Congress had attracted speakers/authors
and participants
