All submitted papers will be reviewed by a minimum of three regular program committee members or two senior program committee members. Acceptance decisions will be based on assessments of novelty, technical depth, elegance, impact (both practical and theoretical), and presentation quality.

  • Original: Exploring a new idea, project, issue, or offering new insights/perspectives on existing research/information.
  • Engaging: Interactive and audience-engaging, or addressing research community needs.
  • Significant: Addressing key issues related to improving current techniques' effectiveness, with easily understood and widely applicable content.
  • Quality: Substantiated by adequate data, referencing relevant existing work, and honestly acknowledging limitations.
  • Relevant: Aligned with at least one of the conference's designated tracks.

Post Conference Publication and Indexing
