Apart from the presentation of technical full papers, the scientific program of CAEPIA 2016 included an App contest, a Doctoral Consortium and, as a follow-up to the success achieved in previously CAEPIA editions, a special session on outstanding recent papers (Key Works) already published in renowned journals or forums.
