Paper submission
The paper
submission is common for all ICCSA workshops (including TSCG)
and is completely performed online through the
ICCSA
2008 Electronic Submission System (
ESS).
In order to access the ESS you are kindly asked to
register.
This step will facilitate the submission of contributions, because you
will no longer input your personal details when submitting an abstract.
During the registration process, you will be asked to specify (twice)
your password, chosen at will (unless it is already in use. If so,
please, choose a new password).
Your login will be
your e-mail address. The login and password will prompt you into
the ESS, comprised of three major steps:
- Step
1: Abstract submission. At this step, the contact author inputs
the title, author(s), and other relevant information regarding the
contribution. Please, pay attention to
select CASA'2008 workshop,
just before inputting the Abstract of your contribution.
After your submission, the contact
author will receive an aknowledgement of the submission via e-mail.
- Step
2: Paper submission. The contact author submits a full paper (10-16 pages) or a short paper (5-11 pages) in one of
the following formats: PDF (strongly
recommended) or PostScript.
- Step
3: Camera ready submission. After the reviewing process, if the paper has
been selectec for publication, the contact author must submit
the revised Camera ready version of the paper along with the source
files (including your artwork, tables, etc.). The submission will be
managed from the home page of the author.
All
submissions must be written in English. Accepted contributions will be
published in
the
IEEE Computer Society
proceedings.
The submitted paper must be camera-ready, between 5 and 11
pages long and formatted according to the rules of
IEEE Computer
Society. The templates and the author's instructions for IEEE
Computer Society (please select the
two column layout) are
available at the URL:

The
paper must present original and unpublished work,
not submitted for publication elsewhere (copyright problems fall
entirely under responsibility of the authors). Each
paper will be reviewed by experts in the relevant field, ensuring the
acceptance only to top quality contributions.
After receiving your submission, the paper will be reviewed taking
into account:
- relevance
- significance of results,
- originality,
- technical accuracy, and
- readability
and acceptance/rejection will be based on this review. If a paper is
rejected you will be contacted and given the referee reports. It may
well be that your paper is more suited to be submitted to another
workshop or conference.
When
a paper is accepted at least one of the authors has to register to the
conference and deliver the related talk. Failure to do so shall lead to
rejection of the application to attend next year conference and the
exclusion of the paper for the current year proceedings.
Submission
implies the willingness
of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper.
Finally, note that the workshop chairs
are only responsible for
all the academic aspects of the papers (including the submission,
reviewing and final selection, among others). For questions about
registration, lodging, visa, flights, or any other question, please
contact
ICCSA'2008 organizers.
