unique perspectives on the critical issues related to multi-cultural, economic,
technological, social, legal, and regulatory challenges that public and private
industries and organizations encounter. The author must specify paper(s) by

that describe the paper(s). Authors may seek guidance on matching their work to
a track by contacting Prof. Dr. N. Delener, Conference Chair (E-mail: delener@gbata.org;
