Note: There is no registration limit on the lecture-part of the Workshop and the BESC2021 Conference. However, due to limited computing and human resources, we will limit the number of attendees to the hands-on session of the Workshop to be around 100+. The final selection of hands-on session attendees will be notified before the Workshop. Early registration and detailed information provided in the registration form will help in our selection.
