Thinking on those researchers directly related with the conference topics but unable to attend it personally (usually due to insufficient funding to cost all the conference expenses: travel, accommodation, registration, etc.), a Virtual Participation mode has been established, with the same validity than the physical one.

Registered virtual participants are entitled to:

• Presentation of one virtual paper, which will be exhibited at the virtual participation online platform.

  Authors can prepare these papers using Power Point, Flash or similar software, or video recordings. There are not restrictions in the number of slides for virtual presentations and videos can be as long as authors like. All usual video formats will be accepted.
  Once virtual papers are uploaded at the virtual participation online platform, the rest of conference participants will be able to see and comment presentations in 5 different ways: using voice (with a mic or phone), text, audio file, or video (via a webcam). Virtual participants will be requested to reply or discuss the commentaries/ questions of their works, and to post at least 3 commentaries/observations on others' virtual presentations.
   

Deadline for virtual paper submission is 4 June 2012
 

• Certificate of work presentation under the virtual participation mode (it will be dispatched to the registered author after the conference)

• Abstract Book (it will be dispatched to the registered author after the conference)

• Submission of one full paper in order to be considered for publication in the Proceedings Book (A copy of the Proceedings volume where the manuscript appeared would be dispatched to the registered author once this volume was published)
