The forum will consist of young faculty round table, invited speeches and technical presentations. In addition to the technical activities of the forum, there will be ample of opportunities for delegates to network through cultural and social events. There will be time for sightseeing around Xi'an.

In addition, we would like to express our gratitude to the organizing committee, the technical program committee, the steering committee, authors,participants and many other contributors. Without the support of these people, the forum cannot come to a successful one. We would like to show the warmest gratitude to the host of this forum, Northwestern Polytechnical University (NPU).
