• Significance and Impact: Problem statement is clearly defined, and abstract is well supported by results and/or case studies. ​

• Originality and Level of Innovativeness: Abstract demonstrates novel ideas, and introduces significant new approaches, technical findings, and/or use cases.  ​

• Practicality and Contribution: Abstract indicates a future-ready solution and idea that is ready for implementation. ​

• Avoid Biasness and Commercialism: Abstracts must be of high quality and is presented without any inclination toward a particular company or provider. Overly commercial abstracts will receive lower scores.​

In summary, an abstract with an original and strong problem definition and offer practical, future-ready, and techno-economic solutions that are backed by solid data and research will receive higher gradings.
