All accepted works will be published in the ACM International Conference Proceeding Series (ICPS), indexed by the ACM Digital Library (ISBN 978-1-4503-4141-7).
Organizers will also award the "Best student paper" presented in this edition of CERI. To be eligible for this award at least one of the co-authors of the paper must be an student, and it should be indicated during the submission process.
In CERI 2016 submissions are divided into two categories: long and short papers.
- Long papers, submitted in PDF and written in English, must not exceed 8 pages following the ACM SIG Proceedings Format and will be presented at the scientific sessions of the conference.
- Short papers (posters) must not exceed 4 pages in the same format and will be exhibited and presented in a special poster session.
CERI specially encourages PhD students and researchers in the early stage of their careers to submit their works. Also, works from the industry will be considered in the Industrial Track and Teaching and learning experiences in the Teaching IR Track.
All papers must be submitted in anonymized form. Thus, author names and organization, references, acknowledgements, and any other information that might allow to identify the authors should be removed from the initial submissions. Papers already published, accepted or under review in any other conference or journal will not be accepted. We also expect that authors do not submit their works to any other event during the reviewing period of CERI 2016. Regarding the plagiarism considerations, ACM Plagiarism Policy will be applied.
Papers will be submitted as PDF files through the EasyChair online submission system. At least one author of each accepted work must register to the conference, by the date indicated by the organizers, and present her paper.
Please note that the Teaching and Learning Task and the Industrial Task have their own submission procedures. For details, visit this page.
