Author Instructions

Once abstracts have been accepted to the International Annual Conference, authors should follow the instructions below to submit their draft (and final) papers, panel details, and/or workshop details.

First Paper/Proposal Submission

Technical papers for peer-review should use the 2020 Peer-Review Paper Submission Author Instructions and Template (provided below), which contains both general instructions and formatting guidelines. Pay particular attention to the draft paper rules to ensure your paper meets the requirements for the double-blind peer review process. It is important to note that the time span between draft paper notifications and the final paper submission is relatively short; therefore, papers that do not comply with the conference paper standards during the draft submission are subject to rejection. Please note that due to the short turnaround time, paper submitted at this stage should be the final product.

Panel session proposal should use the ASEM IAC Panel Details Template for the draft submission. Once the panel has final approval, you can update the panel details as necessary for the final submission. Please be as accurate as possible as the details provided as these will be used to promote the panel and will be published in the conference proceedings.

Workshops and tutorials proposal should use the ASEM IAC Workshop or Tutorials Details Template for the draft submission. Once the workshop or tutorial has been approved, you can update the details as necessary for the final submission. Please be as accurate as possible as the details provided will be used to promote the workshops and tutorials and will be published in the conference proceedings.

Second Submissions

Technical final paper submission Once a draft paper has been accepted, authors should use the 2020 Final Paper Submission Author Instructions and Template to prepare their final paper submission (see template below), which will include the author information. All other formatting will remain the same. Copyright forms will also be submitted at this time.

Workshop/tutorials presenters and panel moderators do not need to submit any document at this stage. However, presenters should login to the ExOrdo system to ensure that the abstract has been updated to reflect any changes, and the presenters information and biography are correct in the ExOrdo system.
