Program Overview

This page provides a high-level summary of the conference schedule. For comprehensive details, including session abstracts and presenter biographies, please visit the Detailed Program page.

Presentation Format and Engagement

ISORC operates as a single-track conference, intentionally designed to prioritize scholarly discussion and the meaningful exchange of ideas. To facilitate this, the schedule adheres to the following allocation:

• Research & Doctoral Papers: 30 minutes total (15-minute presentation followed by a 15-minute moderated Q&A).
• Short Papers: 15 minutes total (10-minute presentation followed by a 5-minute Q&A).

We encourage all attendees to participate actively in the extended discussion periods following each presentation.
