TYPES of SUBMISSIONS and DECISIONS
Four types of papers can be submitted:
Full paper: Finished or consolidated R&D works, to be included
in one of
the Conference themes. These papers are assigned a 10-page limit.
Short paper: Ongoing works with relevant preliminary results, open
to
discussion. These papers are assigned a 7-page limit.
Poster paper: Initial work with relevant ideas, open to
discussion. These
papers are assigned to a 4-page limit.
Company paper: Companies' papers that show practical experience, R
& D,
tools, etc., focused on some topics of the conference. These
papers are
assigned to a 4-page limit.
Submitted papers must comply with the format of Advances in
Intelligent
Systems and Computing Series (see Instructions for Authors at
Springer
Website or download a Word Template or Latex Package) be written
in
English, must not have been published before, not be under review
for any
other conference or publication and not include any information
leading to
the authors’ identification. Therefore, the authors’ names,
affiliations
and bibliographic references should not be included in the version
for
evaluation by the Program Committee. This information should only
be
included in the camera-ready version, saved in Word or Latex
format and
also in PDF format. These files must be accompanied by the Consent
to
Publish form filled out, in a ZIP file, and uploaded at the
conference
management system.
All papers will be subjected to a “double-blind review” by at
least two
members of the Program Committee.
Based on Program Committee evaluation, a paper can be rejected or
accepted
by the Conference Chairs. In the later case, it can be accepted as
the type
originally submitted or as another type. Thus, full papers can be
accepted
as short papers or poster papers only. Similarly, short papers can
be
accepted as poster papers only.
Poster papers and Company papers are not published in the
Conference
Proceedings, being only presented and discussed. The authors of
accepted
poster papers should build and print a poster to be exhibited
during the
Conference. This poster must follow an A1 or A2 vertical format.
The
Conference includes Work Sessions where these posters are
presented and
orally discussed, with a 7 minute limit per poster.
The authors of accepted Full papers will have 15 minutes to
present their
work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 5 minutes of
discussion
will follow each presentation. The authors of accepted Short
papers and
Company papers will have 11 minutes to present their work in a
Conference
Work Session; approximately 4 minutes of discussion will follow
each
presentation.
PUBLICATIONS and INDEXING
To ensure that a full paper or short paper is published, poster
paper or
company paper is published, at least one of the authors must be
fully
registered by the 8th of January 2020, and the paper must comply
with the
suggested layout and page-limit. Additionally, all recommended
changes must
be addressed by the authors before they submit the camera-ready
version.
No more than one paper per registration will be published. An
extra fee
must be paid for publication of additional papers, with a maximum
of one
additional paper per registration. One registration permits only
the
participation of one author in the conference.
Full and Short papers will be published in Proceedings by
Springer, in
Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing series. Poster and
company
papers will not be published, just presented in the conference.

by ISI,
EI-Compendex, SCOPUS, DBLP and Google Scholar, among others, and
will be
available in the SpringerLink Digital Library.
