If you have not received your letter regarding the status of your submission, please feel free to contact us via isdc@mail.npust.edu.tw .

Meanwhile, we are fully aware of your concerns about traveling with risk of COVID-19 pandemic. As of today, the ISDC 2020 conference is still on the go for physical attendance. Yet depending on the development of COVID-19 by end of November, 2020 and the status of international travel regulation, we will be open to accept and ready to facilitate any online presentation per request, either through e-poster, pre-recorded video presentation or simultaneous webinar presentation to enhance virtual interaction with local audience. Asides from adding the new normal practice, we are determined to host the ISDC 2020 as planned. Look very much forward to receiving your FULL paper or Poster by end of September, 2020 and seeing ALL of you either in Pingtung, Taiwan or Online in November, 2020. Please continue to enjoy your academic life in spite of this difficult timing.
