Several types of papers are solicited for the main ICTERI conference tracks. Submission types are:
Full (Regular) Research Papers
- Report on accomplished, unpublished research work
- Present a novel method, technique or analysis with appropriate empirical or other evaluation as a proof of validity
Evaluation focuses on originality, technical soundness and the soundness of the real use demonstration.
Page limit: 12-16 Springer-Nature LNCS pages, which corresponds to the same number of CEUR-WS “standard” pages (2 500 text symbols per page)(*).
Short (Work in Progress) Research Papers
- Short reports of preliminary results or work in progress
Evaluation focuses on originality, technical correctness and the value of the planned results in a short to mid-term perspective.
Page limit: 10-12 Springer-Nature LNCS pages, which corresponds to the same number of CEUR-WS “standard” pages (2 500 text symbols per page)..
Discussion, Survey, or Problem Analysis Papers
- Help understand a relevant problem without introducing a novel method, technique, or approach.
Examples: a review placing a problem onto the state-of-the-art landscape and analyzing how far current solutions fall short; an in-depth discussion and analysis of a certain problem, with clear definitions and argumentation in terms of qualitative or quantitative representation of the main characteristics of the problem.
Evaluation focuses on the soundness of the problem analysis and the interest for the scientific community.
Page limit: 12-16 Springer-Nature LNCS pages, which corresponds to the same number of CEUR-WS “standard” pages (2 500 text symbols per page)..
Industry Experience Reports or Case Studies
- Report on industrial or academic deployments of ICT
- Experiences in the effective and efficient use of ICT in education
Evaluation focuses on significance and practical relevance, technical soundness, and accompanying evaluation or industrial validation.
Page limit: 12-16 Springer-Nature LNCS pages, which corresponds to the same number of CEUR-WS “standard” pages (2 500 text symbols per page)..
The papers submitted as one of the above types (I-IV) and
- Evaluated as not sufficiently mature by the Program Committee; and
- Recognized by the reviewers as interesting and promising in their idea or approach
may be recommended to be accepted as Posters.
Posters
- Concise presentations of early-stage research. These papers outline preliminary ideas, concepts, and initial results shaping out the future work. Posters will be presented in a separate poster session.
Evaluation focuses on originality, technical correctness, the value of the research ideas, and the potential to become a mature research outcome in a short-to-mid-term perspective.
Page limit: 10 Springer-Nature LNCS pages, which corresponds to the same number of CEUR-WS “standard” pages (2 500 text symbols per page).
(*) By a “standard” page CEUR-WS denote a measure, in text characters. Hence, if your paper contains 25 000 text characters then it has 10 standard pages. The number of typeset pages might be (and normally is) different. Interestingly, an average LNCS page also contains circa 2 500 text symbols. Therefore, the text character capacity of both formats is the same.
