SOCPAR 2023 will be a hybrid conference that will run fully in-person
and virtually to take advantage of the best the two modalities can
offer. Besides regular paper presentations, the technical programme will
include 8-10 plenary lectures and poster sessions. SOCPAR 2023
Organising Committee also recognizes the benefits of virtual conferences
allowing participation at a cheaper rate. This allows a higher number of
research scholars and students to attend. Selected authors can attend
and present the papers virtually or in one of the FOUR venues in Europe
and Asia.

Proceedings of SOCPAR'23 will be published with Springer Verlag in their
Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems (LNNS) series.
