Special Sessions are solicited focusing on emerging technologies and industry-oriented topics. Industry and government organizers or speakers are of particular interest. Guest speakers will be invited on the day their session is scheduled. No written papers are required. Materials presented in the Special Sessions will not be included in the conference proceedings.

One or more of the following elements are strongly encouraged in the special session proposals: A) Significant industry or government involvement; B) Industrial application-oriented; C) ECCE 2022 regionally oriented topics; D) Collaborative cross-disciplinary topics or teams; E) Creative formats that engage the audience, especially industry.
